No - i dont think its a joke ( unfortunately)
I once went to look at about 10 arcade machines - all were sitting out on a deck in the weather, none were working. In the middle of all this was a WMS pinball machine - approx 1972 ( i couldnt see the name of the machine), I asked how much he wanted for the pin.
REPLY???
Mate, that aint for sale - thats my retirement fund.
Unfortunately, this attitude to a shagged pin is endemic. No doubt next time i go look at a pin in someones home they will tell me that theyve seen them on Ebay selling for $20,000, but theyll take $10,000 for the non working shagged Wms Firepower.
Things will get worse!
its sad but true
auctions like these will only make others think they can get that much for them
maybe Nino should list mine at 10 k but what is someone buys it as it NOR FOR SALE
