1200, if stencils are available and I probably would still say no.

Triple Parts price, plus 100 bucks.

Not worth it

However much it takes to buy your next pin.

What's your time worth?

$3k-$6k plus materials for a high-end restore like that. That might get you a little above minimum wage for a few hundred hours of work.

Yeah, it might sound like a large amount, but if you actually run the numbers, it's really not all that much for the time you would be putting in.

Personally, I don't go much beyond a solid shop job for someone else. A few days worth of work in total, and the game is up and running, has fresh parts, and is nice and clean.

Professional restorations are usually billed by the hour. For pinball restoration it's around $80-$100 an hour plus parts...

I have done several restorations for people, no EMs but i can tell you at $1200-$1300 plus parts on a SS will put you at about $4 an hour if you’re lucky. This is no clear coating or touch up, no major cabinet work. Just pulling everything to the last screw, washing all harnesses, cleaning boards, cabinets, board work, addressing any issues, polishing everything, cleaned waxed and new rubbers. I’ve done it for the love of it, saving a machine and helping someone else out.

I've done dozens of machines for other people. Usually try to Bill my time at 15 to $20 an hour. Most of my Restorations end up being around 100 hours. If you're strict about your billing time, and efficient with proper techniques you can do a good job in that amount of time. Parts usually run me to to $300 depending.
