How much should I expect to pay for an average or below average condition Bank A Ball or Flipper Pool these days? I am considering getting my first Wedge Head and I'm keeping my eye out for one of these two machines.

There’s one listed near me for $900. The cabinet looks really rough and ther playfield photos are terrible. Really all the photos are bad. I looks like a $450 machine to me. If it’s still around after Christmas I might have to go look at it in person.
Quoted from DK:If the playfield is good and the game is mostly intact i'd go for it. The layout is awesome and in your face. When shopped it'll be a butt-kicker!
I communicated with the guy and offered $500-$700 depending on the condition that it looked like if I go see it in person. They mentioned that one recently sold on ebay for $2000 or more. Whatever. They can go sell it on ebay if they think they will get that much. From the terrible photos, the paint on the sides of the cabinet and head looks terrible. The playfield and backbox photos aren't clear and are dark. They have a photo with the machine on and some of the pool balls down in the head. It supposedly works. They are apparently selling for a friend, so will get back to me after talking to them. I don't have high hopes.
