Not bad at all - but if everyone else isn't cashed up either, then that is what happens!

Hmm ok

There has been one sold for $2900 (I think) after been pulled from eBay then listed a week later by another person for $4000 but same machine with issues.

Missed this one so dunno if same game.

Hopefully someone did get a good buy

It ain't a good buy guys, was speaking to him and was very wary of dealing with this guy. Quick mouth but slow brain.

Massive wear and dropped the price from $4k to $3k in a matter of 12 hours. More than meets the eye with this pin IMHO.

Yeh i agree TSPP. I have seen this pin and it was rough. ALOT of playfield wear and the machine also had alot of mechanical high usage wear.

I passed it up before its current owner purchased it, couldnt get it right, then sent it off to ebay.  Personally, i wouldnt have paid 2500 for it cause it will never become a great TOM.

If the price is too good to be true, then there is usually a real good reason for it, and it aint usually lucky at all.
