I think we all know the seller you are referring to and I know there has been at least one member who went and inspected the TOTAN they had for sale . They knocked it back because the condition didn't match the price tag . Best bet would be to make sure you personally go and inspect it before buying / making an offer . If he does in fact have 2 of them then you should be able to inspect both pins as neither had sold .

Sound advice - never rely on JUST eBay pictures - especially if you are an interstate bidder.

I was there about three weeks ago, there were two TOTANs on display.

Both are not collectors quality, and I believe priced accordingly, as they fetch $7K for a good one these days.

Both had playfield wear, typical container pins, starting at $4K seemd to be OK I reckon.

There was a mint TZ zone there that went for 5K shopped which I thought was good value.

Cheers Angelo

That TZ is now in my garage. It did take a while to get ready, but very happy with the machine - seller was very honest. Good communication, pictures etc.
