Hmm...Fair price for the WH20...I would think that should sell as it has the topper.

The Champ Pub has been for sale for quite a while.  Not sure why it has not sold (at least 6 months from memory).  I think around $4k is good buying for a CP (if it has the backglass).

I always find this time of year is not the best time to sell, everyone is buying xmas stuff and don't have the disposable income.  Good time to pick up a bargain.

I think around Feb - Mar when people have paid off the credit cards it will pick up again.

The problem with the WW is pretty obvious..........



















it has fallen over!!!!! 

another idiot eBay seller who is either too lazy or too stupid to turn the picture the correct way - one click, that's all - just ONE CLICK!!!

Now is not the best time of year to sell. I find that most people want machines prepared before Christmas - in other words - they have already committed to buying a pinball on Oct / Nov. There are always cheap bargains leading up to the week before Christmas and straight after.

The time to list eBay pins is in late July or August - when the tax return cheque arrives !

Yes, and probably better to list them WITHOUT the 'list'

That wh20 has been listed before and from memory has some pf wear and busted plastics and boulders.
It is the same crappy photo from the last listing.
Fair price on thhe CP,unfortunatley it is not much of a player imo hence the drop in value.

I have not inspected it...i had emails with the seller and I decided not to.
With wh20 look for wear from the mine kickout...broken ramps and plastics...broken boulders and check the lock targets and surrounding area..this can take  a beating aas well...of course playfield wear as well.

The pinball market in Australia is booming and is still very very healthy.  Its normal for the market to ebb n flow like the ocean.

People bringing in containers have most of the stock pre-sold or sold soon after. Almost every pinball collector "has a machine on the way or just around the corner" to add to their collection. Everything sells at the right price.

Champion Pub doesnt have pop bumpers from memory, and some people "have to have" pop bumpers on a pinny. Its funny that titles without pop bumpers tend to be loved or hated, but can be difficult to sell sometimes. I have included a photo below for the Champion Pub title. Its an acquired taste but still a very nice machine when in good condition. Junkyard and Champion Pub tend to be very similar in money terms.
