Quoted from newtoit:

Are some eight ball deluxe considered better or more valuable than others? On ipdb.org there is a bally and a bally midway version is one considered better or more valuable?

It goes like this.

Prod round 1 - 1981 - White cab full / size - the most valuable.
Prod round 2 - 1982 - Special Edition cab - worth about 60% of the original in $$$.
Prod round 3 - 1984 - Bally/Midway full / size - green cab - worth about 70% of the original in $$$.

This pin is famous for wear near the drop target area. Beware.
Probably the largest range of cost, for any classic pin ever.

SE cabs can be had for as little as $800 with some imperfections.
The original white cab in mint cond. and with a clear coated playfield can fetch up to $3,000 or more.

If you like the pin and find any copy in good condition, $1,400 is average for SE, $1,800-$2,200 common for the original white cab.

Quoted from mnpin:

Why would the original be worth more than the 3rd version? What did the 3rd version lose over version #1? Framed backglass???? The 3rd version has improvements over the first version.... like easier swapped lights in the playfield. I'm also not as fond of the white cab on the original.
To each his own though... I'm not knocking v1 or v2, but I'd buy another v3 over the others.

The 3rd version, I believe, has decals on the sides instead of the painted cabinet.
That's a big cheapo way out, and many classics enthusiasts do not like it.
