Banzai Run
Williams, 1988Just need a guess on worth on this Banzai Run. Say the other side of cabinet is in same shape on side pictured, looks like there are some inserts where decals have worn off a bit. Everything in good working order and no wear on playfield.

They seem to be selling for more than what you are guessing these days, especially in our market. Didn't that jacked up one sell for like 5k recently? this one seems way nicer than that one was.
edit: here is one that sold in our area recently for 4800

Yeah just trying to be a bit conservative on price if I were to make an offer, just a lot to pay for a system 11 that probably wouldn't last too long in my collection. I just dig the music and sounds mostly.
just saw the cl listing of the game, probably will sell at that 4600 asking price imo. if you want it i probably wouldnt haggle too much. has a new backglass too.
seller didnt put obo

i agree that its not worth the price and wouldnt last long in a collection unless its a pretty large collection. does have great call outs and music. the mb music is super awesome
I have been after this game for many years now and people are asking outrageous prices for beaten games. I had a guy I Colorado actually offer his in a straight up trade for my Mint Congo, but I just couldn't do it. It was a nice game, but not comparable to mine. You just have to find a reasonable seller that doesn't think his game is made of gold.

lmk if you ever want to get rid of that whirlwind 
I have a Harlem globetrotters I see you have in your wish list (and a project f14 )
Quoted from Duvall:I too would think that asking price will be met.
His asking price is not half bad considering others were asking more for much more beaten games.
I consider the insert wear to be "playfield wear". I would never pay anywhere close to what people think this title is worth. It's a cool game but definately a one trick pony that is fairly easy to roll the score over, multiple times.
Your price guess looks about right to me. Even though it’s a system 11 and higher priced than other games of the vintage, it is the most unique of most any game out there. I sold one for around that price. This looks nicer than my old one. I bought another in huo condition all original because I enjoy it that much. Sure it may be a one trick pony, but the blend of lower and upper playfield use together makes it awesome none the less
