What an A$$.

Wow, I gotta see a $5,000 Wild Card! It must be a HEP? Comes with a cc playfield and extra plastics and backglass too? Pics there, Justin?

I wonder how long this game has been for sale at that price on Craigslist somewhere....

That is a pretty big a$king price for a machine of that era. It would be best to post pictures and show the condition and give some idea of the how you feel it is worth that amount (Rarity?/New in the box condition?). Otherwise you will be bombarded with comments like the first one above and worse. If you are serious about this price please be sure to back it up or a lot of people on pinside will go out of their way to ridicule your ad until it is removed. It will be harder to sell in any condition if you don't present it in an honest fashion and you it will leave you upset and annoyed at the pinball community. I have an EM machine from that era and although it is only "Worth" a couple hundred on the open market...it is worth far more than 5K to me as it has been in my family as a working machine since 1980...Just some words of quick wisdom...

"Fair and firm"??!! Good luck with that. Without pictures as well. I figured it out. It must come with $4500 cash inside.

I love the fair and firm! He has to have meant to type $500 and put in an extra zero by mistake.

A friend of mine had the very nicest example of this game (that I ever saw) a few years back. Perfect glass with no fading in the reds, and that bright yellow cab may not have had a single scratch on it. Gorgeous playfield, and with all that, I can't imagine a price higher than $1400-1600. I'm a believer in significant premiums for amazing condition games, but there are some titles that could be darn near new in box, some early to mid 70s stuff, that will never be worth 2K no matter how nice it is.

Nope. His "fair and firm" (it's still neither) has suddenly dropped by $2500, and now proves it wasn't a typo of an extra "0".

What also isn't a mystery is that the game is in need of serious work. Rusted parts, broken plastics, dirty rubbers, poor backglass.

Absolute textbook first post on Pinside.
