For some reason here in the U.K. TAF's have just started to rocket in price. The last 2 that went on ebay sold for over 2k £ that is so we would be talking around 4500 AUS dollars, Thats pretty good money.
My first TAF I paid £600 (1350 AUS$) but that was around two and a half years ago.
The last TAF that I bought around a year ago I paid £300 for, it needed a new playfield and re decaling but it was a steel at the time. Looks like those days are long gone for picking up cheap Addams here in the U.K.
I can't get my head around the prices you guy's are paying for pin's down there in OZ, if they where as much here I don't think I would have as many in my collection. I do realise that you have the transportation charge on the price but it still is a little pricey for me.
