It'll sell for much more than 2500, even with a players condition playfield. I'd pay more than that. I doubt OP would get anything remotely close to asking price either though. Setting a more reasonable asking price would probably generate more real interest.

Quoted from dudah:

Anyone know why they only made so few of these? Same thing with Joust and Defender, you'd think such popular video game titles would sell a lot of pinballs.

1983 was a really bad year for pinball with the rise of video combined with the recession. Nothing in 83 was made in big quantities. Then in 84, Space Shuttle started to bring pinball back from the dead.

Quoted from shacklersrevenge:

I’m not so sure, condition is still everything and this one is average at best. There are always the “I’d pay that!” price group, until it’s time to pony up the cash.
I had a Rocky about two years ago, I could not give that game away for $2400, it took a long time to find a buyer.
I’ve typically seen Qbert in the 2-2500 range when listed. While it’s uncommon, it doesn’t have a lot of love in the gameplay department among the community. Rocky on the other hand, is a very fun game to play and also pretty uncommon.
I sold a Punk! That was involved in a tractor trailer crash that killed the driver (true story) for 3k, but where can you even attempt to buy that pin? Needless to say the condition was below average overall.
Food for thought.

I know I personally would not have a problem paying 3k for this one and stand behind that (consider that an offer if no one else wants it for more). The qbert theme and unique layout really intrigue the people that that type of stuff appeals to. I like the gameplay on it actually. I had a really nice one and traded it away for some other things I really wanted. I would not have done it otherwise. Prices on Rocky are all over the place depending on condition too. I dig Rocky too but the prices on nice ones can get kind of silly, so I have a players one of those. And Punk...well we both know how mythical a beast that can be.

You right Rob, I paid more than that for my too [quoted image]

Nice looking game you got there Rillo!
