mint?? come on!

Pics are too blurry to tell....but I can see a bolt in the lockbar drill hole. MINT!?

Cool Topper

You may want to set your Delorean ahead at least 20 years to get those kinds of prices

This one looks pretty good for $1,500: houston.craigslist.org link

The BOP is for sale also.

I sold a MINT HUO only Back to the Future for $2500 last year. Good luck with the $4K ask though. Someone might pay it.

EVERYTHING MUST GO!! THIS WEEK ONLY!! RARE! FEEL THE HYPE!

Dude, just go back to your retail storefront and sucker an actor or singer. Nobody on this hobbyist forum is going to pay your ridiculous prices.

You never know there might be $2k in quarters in the coinbox. Or the Sports Almanac.

Mint = painted bolts, cab damage.

I guess my games are SUPER MINT with all the cab damage I have.

What is your definition of Mint? If you get a NIB game and play it for a week or so (very few games), clean it, and then put it back in a box it 'should' be in mint condition, but it probably won't be. If you open it and play it for 25 years - even HUO - it isn't mint. Even if you clean it often and well. Mint and New should look and be valued as the same.

If you restore it to peak condition it is in very good condition, but not mint. It is estimated that less than 1% of active pins are truly mint.

GLWS - game looks to be in good condition. Mint?

The way this guy talks, makes me wonder if he is this guy?

They're still there. Same dudes.... Pat & Chaz at Stern!

great scott Marty, a data east game is worth more then a NIB stern. Oh it's California. a big mac is 10 dollars there. I'm glad you finally gave in and joined.

My first pin was BTTF in California for $300!

How about routed, holes drilled, custom painted bolts!

no way 300 bucks is a steal. I bought one for 1,000 3 years ago for a flip and it was a tough sell at 1500 bucks. but the way todays prices are he probably will get 4,000. to many people here on pinside with too much money.

So if you start a sale thread people will just $#!* all over you if price is too high. BUT, if price is too low people will say it's a scam. Not sure why anyone would sell on pinside at this point. Why put up with the abuse? Put it on CL and wait. This is still a free country right?

For as clean and as "minty" as you present this machine......and at a 4k ceiling price point....I'd suggest WAY better pics than the ones you currently have. If you've been a lurker on here for awhile than you should know the deal....close up detailed pics everywhere of the PF with the GLASS OFF, inside the cabinet, behind the translite, all around the cab.....maybe even a short video of the game in action. All I see is low res pics of a pinball machine sitting in someone's collection.

Im sure if all the work and love you put into will come through in the pics to show us how clean and restored this is as you say it is.....step up and do it right!!

I do wish you much luck on its sale. It's your game....sell it as you wish

You are 2k overpriced and I have a BTTF. I would sell mine for 3k without even a 2nd thought. 2k for this title is even a stretch.

I'm gonna guess Chris knows how to sell a pin. Just a hunch.

5K for Fish tales? Does it come with $2500 in the coin box? What every you are smoking, sell that instead, you could make more money.

Now now now....I have family in Cali. If I realllllllly wanted this pin and had the money I'd figure out a way to make it happen. Don't ever ASS-sume I could be a customer someday.....even on opposite ends of the country.

If I wanted to pay 2k or over for a machine I would probably check pinside first before CL. CL is for the bargains and projects. Pinside is for good playing to excellent condition machines. If you don't like the noise in the forums, I understand that the seller can disable the creation of a thread when they post the ad.

I sell a fair amount of EM's and it may be the age group but EM guys hardly ever are this dickish about a sale...especially within the sellers thread.

At least the seller seems to be enjoying it.

Are those some type of brass corner protectors on your "super clean mint/excellent" backbox or just a part of your custom topper?

That's because EM people don't go HEY LOOK I HAVE A MINT CAPT. FANTASTIC, EXCEPT I PAINTED PARTS OF IT, A DEAL AT $5000.

What's RGB a real nice EM for $3,500

Even if they did, the amount of random vitriol would be nowhere near the same...seems like guys just wait for sale threads to pounce. Very scary. Very. I'm afraid of the youth today...when I was a kid you could leave your door unlocked and nobody would yell at you for overpricing a DMD game.

All the guys that pounce on the sale threads are downvoting...I just can't imagine you guys actually rolling up to somebody in person and saying all this stuff. Gotta love the internet.

There's overpriced and then there's really overpriced and saying its mint condition .Most if not everyone on here is well informed on prices and conditions. Lately there have been a bunch of these kind of ads on here some without pics so e with crappy pics . This kinda stuff sld probably be listed on cl or ebay bc I seriously doubt it will sell on here and will get this kind of negative attention just about every time. Glws op but dont think pinside is the place for these sales but you sure can try .
