Never owned or purchased a em game. What is this Gottlieb like as a player and also what is something like this worth? Thanks

Gottlieb EMs were my favourites as a kid. Lots of skill learned and targets magic. $1500 should buy you a really nice Gottlieb.

Yeh $1500 should get you a very nice example of this game. Its not a bad game but if you manage to get all the drops  ( sole point of this game) then they don't reset until the next ball which really lets the game play down ive always thought. It is purely a hit the drop target game and its not impossible to actually get them all down and then there's nothing much to shoot for except the centre kick out. It is a popular title but there are better drop target games to be had.. in fact any that reset are better!

the add a ball versions are better players

A really big earner back in the 70's. This title and "Jacks Open" were very popular games. Card games with Drop Targets were the preferred player games.

$1500 should buy you a working example. Less for project and upwards of $2000 for a reconditioned game. Funny figure "$2000". Most believe you should never pay more than $1999 for an EM
