I don't know. Were the rugs packed in with the games? If so, probably yes. But I never received anything separate.

I have a lot of rare games. Finding myself in need of cash to pay my people, I'm selling off the ones that have a higher value as collector items than they do as revenue generators. Thanks for buying Mustang: What else are you after?

One was a Mustang Premium (already sold). Other is a Rolling Stones.

Someone just PMed me with the same rumor. If so that's fine; might be a good reason to hold onto it after all. I wouldn't want to sell it high and have the buyer regret it. What's the source?

You're good. If the rumor is true I probably get to keep it! I've got other stuff I can sell.

Not sure what you mean. I've never taken the time to enter my collection on Pinside (or anywhere), so if it's that--it won't show anything anyway.

To keep things on track:

I listed it for sale because I don't know what it's worth, and I do need cash to pay my people. That said, I have a lot of stuff I can sell besides this. So I'm undecided. I probably would sell it at $25k--and I received offers for that much less than 24 hours after listing it. But with the rumor of new TBLs coming I can't blame anyone for feeling uncertain. I personally messaged everyone that made serious offers about the rumor as soon as I heard it; I have no intention of taking advantage of anyone. So I'm giving people time to decide how much credence they give to the rumors.

I'm not interested in complicated schemes to reimburse people if new games come out. I'll just hold onto it! Let the market sort it out. If no new games come out, people will still want it in 6 months or a year. And if they do, it means I still get to play it eventually.

I'm not keeping up on the rumor, but that's too bad if true. I'd rather see DP get to make their game.

I've considered that, but our location sucks for pulling that kind of traffic. Seems like it would take a long time--years--to ever generate enough tourist traffic to justify it. Utah is not a hotbed of pinball interest, for some reason.

I meant no offense to pinheads in Utah. We didn't build in this location intending to woo SLC leagues. I'm not saying there's NO interest, but the numbers you quote here wouldn't sustain a business even in SLC.

I sold them their Champion Pub. I guarantee the bulk of their revenue is alcohol sales. Pinball is secondary, and likely a loss-leader. They're not depending on leagues or pinball fans to keep them going.

I'm not fundamentally opposed to it, but I'm sure you know the process in Utah is long, difficult, and expensive. Also the market in South Utah County is 80% non-drinkers, so it's unclear what that would do.

I apologize if I didn't respond to you. I have too much going on--there's a reason I have a TBL sitting around still in the box. The sale is currently pending with the first person to make the offer. If it doesn't work out I'll let you know.

I don't think there's any story, except this sale is a relatively minor thing going on for me and I'm not responding to anyone very quickly. Sorry guys. It does look like it will sell for the asking price shortly.
