For those looking for fun EM pinballs...I know there has been discussion about what's fun, what's worth it. There are two on Gumtree that look great.

Funland – a 1968 Gottleib ‘wedgehead’ pinball machine | in Fishponds, Bristol | Gumtree

Sadly selling my 1968 Gottleib EM pinball machine. A classic Gottleib ‘Wedgehead’ – considered by many, to be among the best EM machines ever made – and highly collectible as such. Back-glass is in great condition – it has been stabilised and lightly touched up. T

Beautiful example of this 1967 vintage, Williams EM pinball machine. Back-glass is in great condition – it has been stabilised and lightly touched up. The playfield is in excellent condition as can hopefully be appreciated in the photos / video. The cabinet has be

Agreed, prices are returning to getting over excited and get yourself in trouble without thinking levels ;)
 
Was going to view this but not now- for £3500 it’s going to sit on EBay forever- also can’t see how he can cancel all of the auction bids as it’s never going to get close to what he wants. Thought Ebay auctions were legally binding? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/23505011...Xk-X6BHRPC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I’ve sent him a polite message to try and educate him- hopefully he take it onboard as good advice. Was interested in a nice one on here last month but just missed out.

He’s replied - has hit the 3 button by accident and can’t remove the post- but has said he’d want £2500 at least. Still expensive given it needs servicing and going through.

no backglass so time for that "retheme to the supposed original theme" of Logans Run

There has been one on eBay for ages at £300, that’s about the only option you have here.

If the playfield is good and everything is there it could be even if you buy that backglass.
Paid a lot more for mine!
 
I’ve literally bought an Ep I from a seller on here in the past seven days for £2300 (in fact I’ve just remembered I hadn’t donated to the site in the past year - have just sorted).

Core of my Ep I is in great nick - will benefit from a couple of hundred throwing at it to address a few minor and absolutely non-urgent things.

No part of me thinks I’ve had anyone’s kecks down for the price and that I secretly have a machine worth double, triple or quadruple what I paid - it was a very fair price and eye-poppingly local.

It cracks me up when people cite HLD and Liberty Games prices as indication of what a pin’s worth.
 
If he relists this as I’d imagine will happen- I might go have a look as it’s not too far from me. What should I be looking for as it sounds like he’s removed the playfield and it’s been untouched for 2 years not used? I’m really unfamiliar with Pinball 2000. What are the key things that should be present or to check condition of? Mechanical stuff I’m okay doing the basics and rebuilding flippers, soldering etc but wouldn’t fancy tinkering with a CRT or boards- way out of my comfort zone
