Swords of Fury - WANTED
« on: March 11, 2009, 01:01:26 PM »
Damn, i missed Mark's "Swords of Fury" by that much....

So, i'm still looking for one, ANY condition!

Can anyone point me to another one hiding out there somewhere ???????

Marty,

This is such an awesome pin! I owned a real nice one a few years ago....bought it for $200  *%*

Traded it off for another early 60s Gottlieb  ^^^

SOF looks awesome lit up in a dark room (and especially after a few  () of the green)

Yeh, i hear a lot of people really bag it, but i've played it most times i visited Marks.
It has a nice combination of challenges and variety which kept me interested long enough to want one  :lol

One day ....

Yes, I played it at Mark's too, and was seriously considering a bid given the price it looked to be heading into. Pretty cheap, but it's sure nice to know that some vendors actually let their auctions run as just that - real auctions! :)

What did it sell for?

Always thought the only thing that was missing - it doesn't have any bumpers!

$2005 is what it went for - there have been a few good auction buys including this one from MarkC and Bumper over the last couple of weeks: Roadshow (MarkC) went for $2226.53, World Cup Soccer (Bumper) went for $2326.53. Looks like the same second highest bidder on both of those last two!

In these times - $2000 was the going rate. Maybe 13 months ago $2500 +

It is a rare game, and I was considering it at one stage - I rate it to be better than Black Knight.

Yeah, I reckon prices have dropped by around $500 on most machines since 6 months ago.

Um, you could put in a higher bid earlier - I had to go out last Wednesday night and I wanted an auction item that was finishing while I was out. Put in a price I could live with and no-one outbid me. There are certain dangers in leaving it to the last minute!

yeah i was at work though and the computer isnt that great, was used to my home comp bein quicker. my last bids that i missed were fairly healthy but you never know what the others guys bid was so still may have missed out + adding 300bux to each pinny sux.

no more $137.00  pins for U

i believe a member here missed the end of this too with a Pc problem .  it happens all the time

guys  I too  always  bid at the last minute   but how many  of us  have missed   the item because we are too slow  or the computer was slow
be honest   I would say all of us have lost at least one or ten items because of this .    you take the chance with bidding at the end   or just set a limit and bid to that   if you get it  great if not   there is always another markc pinball coming on at 1 cent start LOL
