    Quoted from Bole909:

    I would estimate that in my country there are 100 machines left at maximum (Serbia, Europe). They are getting exported all the time and its extremely hard to find any pin for sale (in any condition).

    Hehe, small world. I'm from Serbia too (p.m. me to get in touch), and I have in the course of last year seen in person 9 pinball machines in service, I own 2, and have seen at least 50 in different ads online (I know few online sources where pinballs are advertised locally), so it has to be more than that. Prices are rising similar to Pinside though. Last summer it was 300 to 1000 EUR for most WPC titles, now I see more 800 - 1500 EUR. All unshopped, leagues below collector status, but mainly working. Indiana Joneses, Twilight Zones, Addams Families are 1500 EUR mostly. There is a Star Trek for 1500 also now. It's way too steep for our salaries, so these sit a lot waiting for buyers.
