Superman Pinball
« on: May 08, 2013, 11:43:31 PM »
2 Superman machines, 2 Countries amazing how the interest in one is so different to the other

USA: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/190833513461?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

AUS: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ATARI-Superman-1979-pinball-machine-in-nice-working-condition-/330920137923?pt=AU_CoinOp&hash=item4d0c6094c3

Aussie one seems to have been serviced other than that no huge difference.
It will be interesting to see what the Aussie one gets up to.

I've never seen one of these listed for sale in Australia. Anyone have a guess what the winning bid will be ?

1826/1876? late last night when I checked.

Only glanced at it in my watch list, to be honest. Not high on my list.

The one in Sydney was at $2080 when it was pulled.  I was bidding on it.  To be expected from this seller.

eBay pisses me off.   Whenever I list something my starting price is the lowest ill go why start @ 99c just to pull the auction??? 

  Then you get wankers who make you a lowball offer you accept it then you never hear back from them..

I think 99c auctions are geared around getting the dreamers carried away bidding, you see these people putting in a $200 bid then $400 then $1200, I am not sure if they really think they are getting it for $200 or if they are just wasting time.
Easiest thing is to put one high (but not winning bid) on the item, this usually scares off all the dreamers.
