Always blows my mind when people freak out over high prices pins?. More importantly, buyers submit way inaccurate prices, then get offended when their offer is turned down.
I have personally played this Addams, and I have personally dealt with the seller and he is a no bs, stand up guy. Additionally, I myself do what I would like to “call high end restorations” - but I’m no HEP by any means.
I know a high end restore when I see one and this Addams is without a doubt. The price is fair. As most have stated the HEP seal of approval should be enough.
I think folks need to do some more research when they go to purchase older pins. The price ranges can be all over the board, and in that sense I totally understand how there can be confusion for a buyer.
If you have done your homework, and truly understand what’s involved in restoring a pin to “better than new” aka high end, the price tag can go up exponentially, but you end up with a truly rare pin ready for years of fun.
