Needs to be shopped is an understatement. How about needs a playfield? Oh wait. What am I doing? I promised myself I wouldn’t do this anymore. Sorry I meant to just ignore you. Ignored.

Well, the PF is junk, the cab is water damaged, the CPU has acid damage, every metal part is severely rusted or corroded, there are very few salvageable parts, there's no pics of the game turned on, so i'm sure there are MANY more issues... MAYBE $800. It will cost +/- $5500 in parts and a couple hundred hours labor to restore this turd... And that's if the unobtanium bits are even salvageable!

I saw this ad and was excited at first. Nice a funhouse that judging by the price is probably in pretty good shape close to me! Nope, just a giant turd and an even bigger rip off.

Quoted from unclerudy:

Half of the asking price is realistic. Absurd, but sadly probably about what somebody would pay for this in todays market. 6k is laughable.

Wow you guys are a jem
Look again no rust and the cabinet is. I water damaged. Yes the playfield has wear and yes the cpu shows some acid damage but not what you guys describe. Face it you just don’t like the price so it’s easier to tear it down than to be realistic.

Bro, look at this thing. Its beat! Who cares if its got a nice cabinet when literally all the other stuff is blown out. Kudos to you for sticking around in the thread, but if you want us to be realistic don't come in here and slap everyone in the face with an unrealistic asking price, especially on a game thats clearly a flip that you're doing zero work on. To get this thing even in a halfway clean and playable condition will be several hundreds of dollars and an untold amount of hours of work, and then you have a funhouse thats still blown tf out for the price of what you could have bought a nice one that was ready to go.

My impression is... Clearly english is not your first language, and you have apparently have no idea what rust/corrosion is... all the metal that is brown, like the lock bar receiver and the speaker is RUST, and all the white stuff on the coin door, ramp flaps, scoops etc is corrosion. What causes these conditions?? WATER!
My guess, this game sat outside with no glass on it for quite some time! Bottom line, its not that we "don't like the price" its about your dilutional expectation that ANYONE with even a mild understanding of this hobby would pay even a third of what you're asking for this POS! I also suspect that you either acquired this thing for free or a couple hundred bucks at most. And you came to a forum of pinball experts, thinking you can bullshit us into thinking its not what it is, and unload it at this ridiculous price!! Insulting!!

Have you even bothered to compare your thrashed and neglected turd to the other games for sale in the similar price range??? The one in Alamo, CA for $6900 is also a thrashed filthy piece of shit that hasn't been shopped, cleaned, serviced or maintained in over 22 years, but its still in better shape than yours, and it also hasn't and NEVER will sell for anywhere near what he's asking! The seller texted me a ton of pics 2 weeks ago, and i'm still having nightmares!!

This is what my Funhouse looks like. It’s worth $6000. Full LED with LED OCD, NVRAM Invisiglass and New PF. I figure this would be helpful to a perspective buyer for comparison.

For what it's worth - many of the people on this site are great at helping discern the true Fair Market Value of a particular pin.

So, rather than be obstinate, perhaps you should take their points to heart and adjust your asking price. I've seen other people humbly do that, and it sells shortly thereafter. It's nothing personal - it's just a hobby and they really are trying to help you see the light.
