Every EM will be over 1000 - provided internet bids can come in... This auction has heaps of worldwide interest, EMs can sell for a few hundred in the US, but in other countries EMs can be a few thousand.
Quoted from MtnFrost:Those are just insane prices from people who have no clue about pinball, it would seem. Yeah, I have 1 tonight and 6 tomorrow, but given what we've seen, I will expect to stick to our normal markets. What is the average price on that Nitro? Your bid mirror my own thinking.
I’d say right around 1800. Depends on condition of course. One recently sold on Pinside for 1300. One is for sale now for 2300, looks pretty nice.
I suspect the video issues are that there are thousands watching...remember this was advertised on New York Times article....people all over the world...I spoke with Precision Moving and Storage and Michelle told me record number of overseas buyers were going to be bidding. Todd
At this point I have to believe someone local is blocking the online customers so that they can keep the prices down 
Thanks to Azmodeus for those photos. (Couldn't shave for this auspicious event, eh buddy ? Never mind: it's Casual Friday . . . )
Twitch is currently running some archival past auction, with a pronounced echo. Or is there a better, more complete URL ?
Do you have to be on FB to watch the live feed over there ?
[O.K., I see that you do not have to be a FB user for that.]
Quoted from NicoVolta:The Red Max is rare, but, holy... glebugherndddtttppppppppth
The feed is so bad that the game sold while a different title was still showing on the feed. Sad.
whats amazing, is that I got a price for a tractor trailer to TNT (45 to 48 machines), and that certainly will not be happening...at least so far...these games are higher than retail...
Rumors are flying out of Brighton, Michigan that a guy resembling Clay Harrell is running naked down Spicer Road screaming "I'M RICH! I'M FILTHY STINKING RICH! YOU ALL CAN JUST KISS MY ASS!"
Quoted from CrazyLevi:I’m just glad this auction is finally happening so randos will stop texting me about it.
oh man did you know how much those games are worth
Quoted from alexmogil:oh man did you know how much those games are worth
It’s all the stimulus free money
Use to see King Kool for $200 on FB marketplace and it would never sell. This one doesn't even look like it works.
Quoted from AnimeDude892:King Kool sold. $1,600
Plus fees and tax. Over 2k!!!!!!!
Scorpion is coming up!! I can't wait to see how huge my retirement fund is going to be...lol! I heard a perfectly restored Scorpion is worth $36 million!
Quoted from Coindork:I hope they are taking into account the amount of internet traffic this could potentially generate. Even if people are not bidding and just following the auction it’s going to eat up a lot of bandwidth.
The internet connectivity at Banning has always sucked.
Hope they are taking this into account and taking the proper measures.
I feel like Babe Ruth.
My big takeaway on this:
PAPA fucked up pretty badly not handling it this way. Probably left tens of thousands of dollars on the table. Probably more.
I'd pay an extra $100 for one of these games if it meant they'd stop trying to stream this on a hotspot. Painful.
I’m mostly curious to see if this runs out of gas.
It’s obviously not pinball people bidding these games up. It’s crazy civilians who don’t realize what “market prices” are and also can’t comprehend the huge difference between hammer price and actual price.
I wonder if this continues through the weekend. It could be the whales get satiated day 1 on $4000 comets and scorpions and $3000 Roached EM projects.
Could the pinball auction bubble burst?!
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Scorpion just sold for $4,000.
Papa sold theirs for $900. I almost bought it.
There's a project one here for 600. That's how I like my pins, cheap and needing work.
