Ok so lots of people like asking "how much is x or y table worth???". So... Here's a thread to ask those questions....

Please post these requests in here and not create a new thread asking, since those will only be moved to here anyhow....

This means that people who want to avoid these type of threads can do so...

Cheers

Dan,

I never knew you'd got through so many pins in the space of a few years! At this rate you'll be challenging Matt!:)

What I reckon would work best would be a database showing machine, date of sale/purchase (doesn't matter which), ebay/dealer/pinhead/operator and of course price with maybe a field for comments eg condiiton. Guess similar to the recent site based on US prices but just maintained here so you can do a quick price check on any machine as reckon with all the people here we'd have a fair amount of data. And by including date you can see how relevant the price is. Eg my MM cost £650 but that was 1999!

Cheers
Greg
 
I got asked about a Stern simpsons pinball party... I have no idea, not seen any pictures any idea's guys?
 
Any thoughts on a Bally PARAGON, please? Just curious how much it might be worth once fully restored/shopped. If more than £1,000 I suppose I should declare it on my home insurance as a high value item (never, ever going to sell it).
 
If more than £1,000

I think the only time a Paragon would reach that kind of cash would be if it was collector quality and someone really, really wanted one. I'd say £500 to £600 for a nice one is the most I'd want to pay.....all IMO of course :)
