$494  :lol

Hmmm, ya reckon with all the publicity pinball has had over the last month with Expo, heaps of media coverage etc. That it's playing a part in these basket cases on eBay fetching outrageous money?.

This makes the one in Tas look like a good buy now  :lol

$494!! I'm gob smacked!!  It's definitely a seller's market at the moment not good for restorers. Everyone who has an old shit heap rotting in the shed will be making lots of money.

It's a double edged sword, good for the industry but bad for collectors & restorers looking for a project.

It has been a seller's market for years now, particularly with the advent of Ebay - it is very rare to obtain good projects machines for a reaosnable price anymore which is really a shame.

For a game that is not overly known or popular in that condition....... well its nuts. But are we under-valuing our machines? Maybe if you agree that ebay is the only true indicator of week to week valuations. That pro football that went unsold should be worth 2k in comparison lol

EMs are improving, this is getting outstanding money: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Pinball-Machine-70-s-coin-operated-collectable_W0QQitemZ140324102495QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_15?hash=item20abf7e15f&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50
