Hi all...posting this for a gentleman who is thinking of selling his world champ and would like an idea of value...he isn't internet savvy...his description of the game: Backglass is a new repro. Cabinet 8.5. New legs with proper original color. Playfield 7-9. Very few wear marks. mild-moderate around gobble hole-new plastics and rubber-works perfect. Love the game.
He has someone interested in it but has no idea what to ask for it. It sounds nicer than mine but alas he is 17 hours away!

Tough one to value without pics.

Depends how much wear on p/f as this title it is hard to find a p/f that is not worn to the wood in places.

Hard to find correct legs at best of times.

Without pics range could be $1000 - 2000.

Repo playfields are out there. I had two of them at one time but there both long gone. Check with Kruzman though he might still have one.

Tough one to value. Cabinet re-painted? Looks like a ton of touch up's on the p/f as well. That will bother some people.

But, overall looks like a decent restoration.

Going to take a guess at $1200? Popular game for sure.

I think that's accurate. Maybe even a little on the cheap side looks like a lot of work was put into this game.

Thanks guys...1200 to 1500 was my estimate as well. Cab is original and yes some touchups just around gobble hole and inserts

Yes agree for sure, especially due to fact that cab is original as usually pretty beat up on this title.

I've never noticed that Clown on the apron, did other wood rails of similar vintage use this Guy?Gottlieb loved Clowns.I also like the patina on the front door hardware instead of trying to polish it.
