Love the detail that you go into with your restro's.  Obviously a great number of hours/days/months go into it them, does your sale price of these pins reflect the time and effort that goes into them? 

Mick - The collector who saw this machine valued it at exactly what I valued it at - I got exactly what I wanted - which was over $3K. It does take a lot of effort, but it is worth it both financially and it provided me with a great level of satisfaction.

If I charged a minimum of $35 per hour, the game would not be affordable.

I will do more games at this level in the future.

That was the answer that I was hoping for  ^^^  A fair price for the buyer and reward for the hard work put into the restro. 

Must add that once people experience the difference between a working pin, to a fully shopped pin, to a restro, they never go back  *%*
