I had one and bought it for $1900 and did a shop, with flipper rebuild, targets rebuilt, all new playfield plastics and a few minor mods (2 x yellow globe covers, shark, mirror blades and copter) but a forced sale a while back getting $2.2k and it was in pretty good condition. $2.5-$2.6 top price if nothing to do as all pins have gone up a few hundred in the last 12 months. $2.9k is a little high for what the game is (reputation) but if you get a new screen it would give some relief to not having to worry about out laying for one as only 4 segas use the larger dmd and it is always a concern if it fails.
It has 3 different skill shots and a real challenge to get the skill shot super bonus getting all 3 skill shots in one game (one on each ball), as well as some good shots and a bit to the rules as I never every saw the earth quake mode. It is a cheesy theme but a good fun player.
Here are my 2 videos showing the look around and overhead game view if that helps.
