Thanks heaps for this - if I can buy a mint (non-faded, perfect playfield, recently rebuilt flippers with as new coils, new or unfaded & uncracked plastics, preferably leds throughout) BSD for $2.5k I would be VERY happy. At that price, as long as it is checked out first I'm happy to pay Qld to Canberra freight $$!! I hope to advertise later on AP as a WTB but if one comes up that is pristine at that price or less PLEASE would you mind shooting me a pm?! In NSW the ones I've seen have been advertised at $2.8k to $3.25k & generally have not been well-cared for or updated in a long time. The Drac writing is often white instead of red, dents in side rails, broken plastics, weak flippers - but they still sell (take longer to sell than Shadows - but still usually gone within a week).

Re ac/dc what kind of things make the diff between $6250 & $7500?? Obviously game count plus general condition - but eg. the "cloudy" lower p/f glass is used as a negotiating point. Mods are usually stripped rather than sold with the game - that's fine. What else? It's a big range & $7,500 getting up there - but yeah the $Aud has tanked.
