Well, I went down to my local Op/buyer and talked to him. Here is his story. A semi came in, and everything sold right off. ST:TNG 1650, TAF 1450, and FT 2200. (Those are WACKY numbers, not at all right for the machines). HE told me they cleaned out the storage areas, and that they will have more pins. He then went into a tirade on how ebay is no longer the haven for selling Arcade games, how the market is slumping (which should be good for me, in future negotations, no?) And that they would have more pins soon. Very interesting... Very... ;) -- Artoo-Detoo, you know better than to trust a strange computer. -- C3PO "Star Wars : The Empire Strikes Back" Chris Hardy (chris@hardys.org or support@mission.net)

So is that low prices? Sheesh, a NIB robotron cocktail just went for slightly more than that FishTales. You pin guys are nuts. And, did anyone go get that Basketball? I was tempted to go up, part it out on the spot and leave the carcass in the DI dumpster, but that's a lot of work just to put one more PCB and a cone button on the shelf. Sean
Nah, I got my FishTales for $1000. But a Ok condition Addams Family can *easily* go for $2500. A ST:TNG should probably go for $1500 (though I'm trying to find one in the $1000 range). I've seen restored Cactus Canyons go for $8,000 Some Midevil Madness pins, in un shopped condition are going for $6,000 Did I start on the wrong hobby? Should I have gotten involved in the Arcade games? ;) On Mon, 1 Nov 2004, Sean McLachlan wrote:
