They've got a trailer up for your episode on their main page now... https://www.metv.com/collectors-call
Just watched show. Happened to be flipping through channels at right time. Would of loved to see more.
Hey OP! I really enjoyed the episode. Can you give us any interesting behind-the-scenes info? How did you end up on this show? Did they contact you out of the blue? Did you have any idea about what Roger was interested in and/or what he would offer you? Anything else that was memorable during the shoot?
Great show! 
Reminds me that sooner or later I gotta get off my lazy butt and install the new playfield I bought for my Fast Draw.

Yeah, spill the beans! I'd love to know all the behind the scenes details of the show. How long did it take to shoot? How long ago was the episode taped? What was taped that got cut out? Is Lisa as sweet as she seems in real life?
I saw it and was shocked at Roger Sharpe's valuation of your Star Trek (Bally) at $10k. Why so much ?

I forget, but I think Fast Draw was valued high also.
They all were. A "Slick Chick" with a painted cabinet? What was it, $5K? C'mon!
And $5K for a jacket? Even if Elvis wore it every New Year's Eve it wouldn't be worth that much!

Nation wide price pumping!

Yeah it's TV, appraisals are always sky high on Collectors Call, Pawn Stars, etc etc., I was fully expecting it. Goes with the territory. Still a fun show and my fave episode so far for sure. They had a collector once who had two or three machines but it wasn't the focus of his collection of memorabilia.
John used to have a great YouTube channel, I learned so much from him. Here is a link to one of his videos. Just click on his channel to see more.

If, in 25 or 50 years from now, when it may be a $5k pin, they'll watch that show and think there's been no appreciation in value that whole time.
