The "How much is this table worth" thread....

Fear of losing money on a pin which is so important now it seems means a missing topper especially on ft and wh2o is going to knock a LOT of value off.
Yeah, I got my first pin 'cheap' from a dealer due to being Fish Tales missing the topper.

It now has a 'new' reproduction topper, which we've just finished, and I'm not sure if that makes up for it missing the original, or whether collectors are purists about wanting an original one (not planning to sell my FT though).

I personally think mine is better than the original. It not only has full LED spot-lighting, but there's a real lure on the backboard.
 
Project tz with a bit faded playfield ?

Can I get a couple of price checks please:

The Simpsons Pinball Party - skill post version, slight wear in maybe two spots.

Transformers LE Combo - good condition, couple of wrinkles in cabinet art by leg bolts but have replacement art included.

Volatile market at the moment

Simpsons -£4.5 to £5 and transformers maybe a bit more. Post some pics and those who really know will be able to give some good advice ;)
 
My mates absolutely immaculate and rare HUO low play Simpsons (skill post version) got no interest whatsoever at 6k but plenty of offers at 4k!
I couldn’t even find anyone for him at 5k! So in the end he decided to keep it and tombstone.

So I very much doubt a one with wear spots and well used with usual fade? will fetch 5k.
If it does even fetch 4 I don’t get it. It would take a shed load of money to even get close to the aforementioned.
I don’t think some people realise just how expensive it is to shop a pinball to minty spec.
4 brand new full flipper assembly’s will hit you for £200+ alone. Not to mention trying to bring a worn PF, ramp and plastics back to mint.
 
Might finally be time to let go, EATPM with new decals (pending), new plastics and a 7 or 8/10 playfield (couple of typical light wear spots), what we thinking? I find it impossible to price this machine and may just go dutch auction.

You kinda answered your own question with the word “impossible” so Dutch auction maybe the way to go or save yourself the hassle and I’ll give you what you consider to be fair as I’ve advertised for one few times now.
 
Hello

Extremely nice SoF.

My restored Spectrum from the shop logs thread.

Extremely nice and honest Sopranos without any mods.


Thanks

I'm guessing here...

I was enquiring about SOF earlier this year but at between 2.5 and 3k I was priced out. System 11, good theme, surely 2 to 2.5?

No idea on Spectrum, very different game, good looking but no idea, surely similar to SOF, maybe a touch more

Sopranos, 3.5 to 4?
 
If anyone in the area HELP is needed in Bristol. Honest opinions on conditions prices, easier when looking at the machines in person rather than me making 50 photos now.
From What I can remember
Prices for
VECTOR top left flipper not working don't know if has all speech?
PARAGON top right flipper works for a while when coil replaced, backglass not best
STRANGE SCIENCE working
BK2K working
Fish tales working
Roadshow working

All machines that are going to be sold , will go on forum first. Hopefully with proper photos and honest descriptions of working. If someone can help me.
All were working before being tombstoned for building works.
All have seperate batteries holders that I can remember. I haven't turned them on yet as they need a clean and i have only just got into the room.
And don't want to blow anything up by doing stupid mistakes and ruining things breaking the glass on my own etc etc

Cup a tea sandwich or beer (if not driving or bring designated driver)

Thanks Pete

Must be around then. My third pin after wwfrr and the shadow. Lasted longer than some 'a list' games.
 
Ok toying with the idea of letting this go…
Not really sure on what to ask for it or if it’s better sold in parts or all together? Or if it would be better on eBay or on here?
It could be a Funhouse or a Funhouse 2 Rudy’s revenge? Please note it’s not a complete machine but most parts are easily available (I may have most/some?)
I have a selection of parts is really what it is! These consist of a Manny cabinet (bare) and a Manny backbox painted and re decaled, a metal back board and light board, a playfield (probably more of a donor playfield?) which looks pretty much complete but may have parts missing? I do have the correct transformer.
If you wanted to go the FH2 route it may be possible just to sell these?
But if you wanted to go restored FH route I do have various other boxes of bits which I haven’t gone through yet! I’m sure I have a brand new display and some? Boards a translight, new ramps?etc etc?? but these would need digging out? I’m sure I have other parts that I’ve collected over the years?
This originally came from Chris B back in 2019? Since then I’ve managed to acquire a Chris B restored FH so unfortunately this has been gathering dust!
Attached are some photos any comments appreciated thanks it probably needs to go to someone on here who will finish him off! Or put him back together!!
Probably seeing if there’s any interest? And what are peoples thoughts on what to lump together?
Thanks Tony
