Quoted from CaptainNeo:

I'm not going to take a risk putting any time in a $600 game that barely could get $800 restored. Except for the people who already own one, that still claim it's not a $600 game. Except they are not buyers because they are the 3 people that actually can stand it enough to keep one.

I have $800 cash in hand for a properly shopped SF2 if anyone has one near Iowa. Bought and sold 4 of them over the years and always regret selling it.

Quoted from CaptainNeo:

Being able to play and understand it, has something to do with it sometimes. But multiballs cannot save a game from horrible layout, boring layout, boring toy, horrible art package and sleeper call outs. ID4 has multiballs up the ass too, but suffers from the same crap Xfiles does. It's also a horrible game. I love playing it in tournament and league because I can blow it up, but it's a shitty game as well.
As for waterworld. It's true. these guys say this shit is worth so much, yet when you are selling, they avoid those threads like the plague, because they like to talk a big game, and don't buy shit. Lets see those wallets come out for $1000, when the waterworlds, freddy's, SF2, Tee'd off, rescue 911's all come out of the wood work. Fully working players conditions. I think all you will see is crickets.

Within a reasonable driving distance of Cedar Rapids Iowa, I have $1000 cash in hand for a nice, decently shopped Waterworld with no playfield wear between the flippers, DMD fully working, plays correctly, good cabinet, and ship optos functioning correctly. Shoot me a private email and let's close the deal.

Quoted from CaptainNeo:

you will not find a system 3 that doesn't have playfield wear. Now your asking for a restored piece. Restored pieces get double or triple market value. That's not the games we are talking about here. We are talking about your average, pulled out of a home that hasn't been turned on in 10 years, routed typical players game. Working, but needs tweeking. Maybe some cabinet graining, some wear somewhere. saucer holes probably chewed up good. That's the $700-800 waterworlds we are talking about. Not some exceptional condition machine that manage to sneak through the past 2 decades with barely 500 plays on it.

Whatever Neo.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

About 4 years ago, Dennis Hopper's OWN personal HUO Waterworld sold via Christie's auction for $1,300, or about $7,000 less than the leather chair next to it. I can't vouch for the flipper wear but you gotta think it was pretty nice.
This is not a game anybody wants.

Yes, I remember that sale and the price. In your mind in might be a game nobody wants, but I in fact do.

And in response to Neo, I have sold 3 Waterworlds over the past 10 years and 2 of them had no playfield wear and were exceptional condition.
