Quoted from Bribo13:

Why would you say a pin that was to trashed to be played and could most likely never be brought back to life was highly collectable ? you zero chance of getting a playfield so what is the value of a machine that is nothing more than a hapless project / parts game . if you have no playfield you have no game.

Skilled restorers restore trashed playfields all the time.

One of my customers even showed me some Whitewater upper playfields he CNC routed at work, and then printed the graphics directly on the wood with a "direct sign printer". No silkscreens or overlays at all.

Obviously this game does not exist, but if it did I'm putting in my bid at $501, Drew.

Quoted from cfh:

So that 2 playfields could cost $2500 each?

That's still a great deal.

Buy the game for $500, add playfield $2500, add other parts, paint $500 = $3500

Sell for $12,000

Quoted from cfh:

Vid it may be more like you spend 5k and then sit on that second playfield for a long time.

I've got two emails right now from guys looking for a playfield, so that would be 3 right there.

It seems like ever since that Aquamarine movie, the whole mermaid thing has blown the fnck up!
