They are always worth more when the world cup is on...if you can wait for the next one.

Hard to sell when there is no world cup hype about, unless there is some soccer tragic that must have it.
Best of luck with the sale.

Just depends what interest there is around at the time, but I reckon you should get your $2500+.

$1400 unshopped container pin to $2500 tops for a minty minty example.  Nino(strangeways) did one up and it was magnificent with new plastics and had the full treatment. You will have to ask him what he sold that for if its not confidential with his buyer.  ^^^

My restored WCS94 went to a high end collector for over $3500. I had two other buyers lined up that were willing to pay that price.

I've seen them go for as little as $2200 - but they are ALWAYS poor examples with broken ramps, plastics and poor shop outs. All machines are container pins, but it is the amount of time, effort and the willingness to spend money to make the game as good as it can be. I've not heard of a seller deliberately having the ramps gold plated like mine. New display etc etc. Some sellers list their WCS94 for months at elevated prices - one was even listed for $3900.

A reasonably shopped machine should sell for $2500. Reconditioned and restored will cost more. Don't pay more than $3600 for a fully restored game.

yer fair enough, yer mine is not like yours lol with new real gold plated ramps lol. but i do have new original gold ramp new plastic ramp, new soccer ball, and done a fair wack of work to it, the cab art does have some marks but boards are redone, new goalie and plenty of new bits, so im guessing between $2-$2.1 would be fair for machine going off de******ions here, that operates perfect looks good with some imperfections with the cab art, it is prety tidy no operating problem just not i guess fully mint.

why is des cription a bad word???

The word s c r i p t could potentially be used to run code on the site and potentially hack it. Hence it is banned.

You should be able to get 2.5k with the new soccerball and ramps.  If it had been stripped down and restored with no broken plastics 3k+ but would definately take a bit longer to sell.  If you are after a quick sale 2k will get it off your hands fairly quickly I would think.
