    Picked up my firepower this weekend as part of a deal with taxi. Not a huge fp fan, but really wanted the taxi. The playfield is super nice on the firepower. Not a drop of wear. Backglass is so so.

    My dilemma is this: The firepower is really nice and I think, in it's condition, kinda rare. I have a guy willing to buy it for $700. I also have a guy willing to sell me a pinbot for a little more than $700.

    I want the pinbot. BUT, I'm not sure I want to part with such a NICE firepower. I lack space in my house for both.

    Thoughts?

    My only thought is, if the Pinbot is in nice shape, I'd jump on it for $700. I think it's time to get a bigger house.

    That's the thing. I almost had the buyer at $600. He wants "700ish" for it. It is missing about 3 plastics. I am going to set up a time to go check it out.

    It's just that firepower's pf is sooo nice.

    +1, I can get my hands on a firepower pf to restore but most of the moon is missing...

    The only thing I will add is Pinbot is a fun pin and makes Firepower really seem kind of bland.

    I'm a bit biased, but ....I'd keep the Firepower.

    Part of me is thinking that I should keep the fp as it's really nice. It's gotta appreciate in value over the years in that condition.

    Also, what would a price be for a really nice conditioned FP?

    #9 12 years ago

    Firepower is a nice classic machine but IMO Pinbot is more desirable and more fun to play

    #10 12 years ago

    I'm leaning much more towards the pinbot.

    +1 on Pinbot
