Not mine. Not really interested in selling any of my games to get this. Guy says he needs to get $2700 and he's already been haggled. Is that a good price?

All I can say is that it works, has flipper button wear, and has a dirty pf that looks like it would clean up nice.

Anyone seriously interested in this, PM me and I'll get you the guy's #.

Here are some cell phone pics...

Looks like a set of side armor should cover those flipper wear marks.

I think there are a lot more interesting games out there for that kind of money or a bit less. IE Roadshow, JP, Fishtales; titles like that. But if it's a title your interested in then I think that is a pretty fair price for a newer stern. If there are cracks on the ramps and wear anywhere on the machine I would would say 2500.

Def wouldn't pay more than 2700.

I think if its working and can be cleaned up, then 2700 is worth it. Avatar is not a bad game.

Not bad. Avatar or BBH sub $3K I would be a buyer if local as they are both fun pins even though their isn't much to them.

I recently got one in the sub 3k range and I have to say it is totally worth it. This game gets a lot of bad press, but I find it to be a really fun game. Sounds build up really well, and the custom speach is awesome. HAM SOUP JACKPOT!!!

I gave the seller's contact info to the first guy to get to me on Monday. I think the game is spoken for.

If I find out the game is still available, I'll go down the list of PMs to see if you guys are still interested.

No more PMs on this please. Thanks!

I would also buy this at that price. I loved the movie, same as the rest of my family, so would be a good fit. I like the game it seems a fun game. I kept seeing the price creep down on these and while glad that I may own one as I'm not a guy to buy expensive pins, I don't understand the bashing it gets either.

Yesterday, Amazon on their "Today's Deals" had NIB Avatars for $4100 with free 2 day shipping. Not $2700, but not routed either.

Picked this up, it works and plays great and the seller was a heck of a nice guy. It needs a light cleaning and some new rubber, but everything works well.
It is a great game. Thank you very much to the OP for keeping the line/order, it is much appreciated.

Thanks, James

Yeah, $2700 for a routed game with obvious wear? A lil' too much .. but still a decent game IMO.

Congrats on the game. Any newer stern is easily worth $2700 plus the shop job even with the wear !

Oh, HELL YEAH! Great buy! I paid $5,400 for my Avatar, plus shipping. It is a GREAT pin. You got yourself a good one for that price. This kind of thing doesn't happen often.

Only real wear looks to be at flipper buttons and the updated stern armor rails would cover it.. :shurg: great deal imo, when they go for over 3k now.
