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 trueauctions 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 SALESorry Mate, I privately sold your Rocky for $15,000 late yesterday.
