Quoted from srt-8:

I feel like everyone drives a Challenger where I live.

"Well, it plays, it's working, it's in nice shape, it's got updated displays"
LOL they can't seem to sell this one

He said in real good shape but they were looking for a stuck ball and had to pull the glass back to fix it. Yeah, nobody wants this.

And Captain couldn't even say why he liked owning it

I like how you shoot the ball in the guys nuts and he screams OWWWWWW!

Killer game! I’ll bid $4000.

#2705 2 years ago

What would a fair price have been under normal circumstances for Alvin G Soccer Ball?

LOL .... the challenger pinball hahaha .... already drive a Chrysler

#2710 2 years ago

I'm just getting ready for disappointment on how much Doctor Who will go for. But at least they keep popping up on the market place.

One as low production as that? Seems like all the reviews on ipdb are good?

The pot growers shoulda came out and handed out free samples, it would keep the crowd engaged and maybe make them wanna bid at these prices

#2713 2 years ago

Getting closer to the A/B-B/W titles.

Ready to set the benchmark for my collection...!!!

$60-$80K value in mere minutes ...!

#2714 2 years ago

On the last Captains auction a Black Rose sold for $3,500 as I recall

#2715 2 years ago

Some of these prices I keep thinking $1k over market isn't terrible, all assuming it's in great condition? But then I always forget the ~26% fee/tax markup at the end of it.

Anyone that's actually seen these. What's the typical condition of the pins here? Do they get them in, run a restoration and put them on the floor or are they just typically buying decent looking examples and plopping them on the floor with no changes?

Don't assume that

I just want to let everyone know....
If Popeye sells for more than 8 Thousand.
The End Of The World Is Near.

#2718 2 years ago
Quoted from Knxwledge:

Don't assume that

Yeah, more why I'm asking what's the typical condition these are in. If I was in person and walking down the line to manually inspect them, check for specific wear characterizes, see some janked up pieces that are bent or just a shit playfield that looks good in a photo. I'd say 99.9% of the bids here are people who are going off a handful of cell phone pictures.

Auctions are amazing in that no matter the knowledge, the human brain simply cannot comprehend tacking On 25 percent to a hammer price.

It’s an amazing case of human psychology study.

The trends seen in this whole auction remind me of End of the World films like "Day the Earth Caught Fire." It's all over, so everyone is out partying or going crazy, no reason not to throw away every last dime.

Most of the pins are just player's condition. A few are really nice. None of them get "restored" - just repaired

It's things like eBay that at least have the absolute price to the buyer is the hammer price. They'll still tax the buyer at the end, but fees are taken off the hammer price, which would make more sense.

I went and put all the games I wanted to bid on and subtracted all the fee prices from what I'd like to pay. No way I'd actually get anything for those prices.

#2726 2 years ago

I finally own a game over $10K!!! Go CFTBL!!!!

#2727 2 years ago

What's the record for most games sold in a row for over $10K - I think that record is going to get broken coming up here?

#2728 2 years ago

Yeah, most of the pins are player condition or a little nicer.
The Firepower is gorgeous and the Flash.
Both restored.

#2730 2 years ago

"your only opportunity for a twilight zone!" lol

#2731 2 years ago

The fact that Hercules have both beat TZ and CFTBL and that BTTF only lost to TZ by $500 is blowing my mind.

#2733 2 years ago

Twilight Zone, ranked #1 (just not on pinside). It's not bad, I'd like to have one, just not at the price it just sold for haha.

#2734 2 years ago
