I have bought from Dave and he is a great guy! He did innovative things to the game that others have not done. The button on shooter is made to look like a real reel. It does have radcals and not next gen on it thus the gaps to the corner. Less it appears a partial restore but in great playable condition. It sold quickly! For top dollar. If the new crap that is being produced is selling for $10-12k these well done original WB games have a market. There are only so many good ones. It is amazing when we all buy we get mad if priced high but some of our games we won’t sell unless we get silly numbers. Maybe the seller feels the same way. GB premium listed for $11,500 and kiss le for $14,500 this looks like a deal to some. I like original but many like the powder coated Armour. Dave innovative ideas and well done. Can’t wait to look at the next one he does. Maybe a white water or another fish tales. Laugh is on everyone as someone liked enough to pay $9,000. I am not a restore, mod or topper guy. I do have all of the above on a few but I prefer HUO original across the board.

You aren’t going to take a reasonable offer the first day you listed it.

I chatted with Dave, it was full price and guy was in California and picking up. So many of these posts are SO hypocritical. I have seen many posting list for stupid amounts. I could go through and destroy every little thing wrong with the game. Did I agree no but they waited and got it. I got a stupid unsolicited local offer on one of my games today. I may sell but I really don’t want to as I like the game. It is the NOW factor for many.

Well said!

How I look at it is like a house. Once I own one the market goes up and down. If I want a bigger one it the difference in price between the two. I can’t sell one at the top and buy the new one at the bottom as I am trying to time. If I am in the market and own that is all that matters. I have 30 games. From 1987 to 2020. I am in the market. Doesn’t matter if it goes up or down. Yes, I could cash out and make a lot money now but then have a empty house and no games. It is hobby. Not an investment. Turning hobbies into investments always has bad endings.

The remakes are in question. Will there be anymore? With prices where they are. They will be remade. Fish Tales remake coming! LOL The newbies came on the AFM page pushing remakes. Did not go well for them. I would take a HEP or huo original over any remake. I have had such bad luck with them. All bling but don’t play the same. Mmr was close then. Did not say original beater over remake.

Tell yourself it is investment and it will end badly. Yes I am up only if I sell. Which I am not. If I do sell in the future it maybe higher or lower than current. If it was an investment it is a bad investment as stocks have done better, bonds have done better, real estate has done better and homes. A 10 percent yield every 7.2 years your investment doubles. TAF was a $5000 game in 2010 now it is $9000 game. MM was a $20k plus game and now $8500-$13500. Lotr of the rings huo was $5000 game in 2010 and now it is $6500. I have fun playing, maintaining and collecting them. Bubbles in everything come and go.

I have them both also. Not a restored mm, mb, or afm but low play it huo. The remake was junk. The mmr played very close. Every game after that the bling went up and the play went down. The AFMr playfield was junk. To fish tales and white water being the next remake. Please post as I want to see a 45k sale. We have all had fun in this thread. The nib gnr, led zepplin, and Avengers infinity quest are starting to hit the its for sale market. As shipments arrive more will go up from sale. I love my covid 2020 game AIQLE.
