Uh, ok. It might help to replace those broken ramp phurba's and mount them correctly. You might also want to point out sanctum has been repaired.

I would say the Sanctum has been covered by a sticker that doesn’t match the PF color but good suggestions.

With respect, it's a very nice Shadow but not a fully restored showpiece. The sanctum area should look like new either through a new playfield or professionally restored (matching paint - not a sticker of any kind) would support a completely restored description.

I understand every Shadow has sanctum wear. But that shouldn't change the core definition of fully restored. I got excited because I'm in the market for one, then saw the sanctum area.

Still a beautiful example of the game. Love the alternate trans. Best on the sale.

This thing wasn't even shopped.

If you zoom in on pics, you can see really worn rubbers and dirt all over.

It's Georgeous from a few feet back. I would say it's value is around 3300-3500.

I can see a real restore getting the price up to 5k. But come on!
The sanctum decal is horrible! Really???!!!
Looking at the wear on the coin door, this poor working girl has a lot and lot of millage on her. Did she work for Lord Baelish (GOT) before you got her? A lot of quarters have been stuck in there for sure.
The cabinet bolts are rusted.
Cannot tell the flipper buttons from all the bright lighting....
The playfield picks are dark, but even then it is full of spots.
We have a lot of new members on pinside, hate for someone new to the hobby to fall for this!
Please stick to EBay.

This is nice looking Shadow. Not commenting on the price but restored and especially fully restored means a new or professionally restored playfield is in the game, tumbled parts, wiring harness cleaned after its removal, etc. Bascially its the equivalent of a frame off restoration done to a classic car.

So obvious to anyo e who bothers to look! Where in tbe hell are these clowns coming up with these wacked out prices? Seriously is you are trying to sell overpriced shit take your crap to ebay not to a pinball site where most of us are highly educated and know what to look for.

Maybe thats why this game is so high it too also only has 600 original plays. Best part though is this one comes with a set of legs!

I said this in the White Water thread and I'll say it again.

Stop expecting buyers to eat the costs of your mods - those were your choice OP.

Apples and oranges: the Whitewater one has a pile of mods that, while questionable in taste, are well done on a very clean and well shopped restored pin. Keep in mind it has new playfield, ramps, cabinet decals which are not mods. It is still overpriced. Everything on this Shadow is misrepresented, poorly done and dirty, with plenty of wear and broken parts while being touted as “Georgeous”, “Fully Shopped”, and “SHOWPIECE”. It is also overpriced, but due to different reasons.

Depending on the pin and mod, some mods do have a value long term more than other mods, and where that line is debatable. As a whole though, I do agree that sellers should never expect a dollar for dollar return on their mods.

I tried low-balling my house purchase using this logic but it didn't work.
