I might have a bead on a machine to purchase. Still have to look t it but owner bought new in the 90s and has been in his game room ever since. Might be able to get it for under 2K. Thoughts?

Quoted from paynemic:I wonder if they’d like to meet me? No reason....
Haha. It’s not set in stone yet but he said he’s had them a long time. His kids are grown. Hopefully he is ready to sell.
Quoted from wolfemaaan:It’s under $2K until he looks on Pinside or EBay, then add $8K. Otherwise be careful, sounds like a scam (unless you know the dude). Bottom line, no HUO IJ is selling for less than $6K so do your homework & legwork before paying penny
I know him. Friends boss so legit. Not sure he will look up prices. Am I a bad person for biting my lip?
Quoted from Gogojohnnyquack:There's no way that he is not going to be curious of the value and look it up, either before you go to buy it or after he has sold it. You know what the right thing to do is. Make the guy's day and be honest and fair.
Quoted from wolfemaaan:Be honest and fair and bring him a six-pack of beer with the $2K
What would the bottom number be then. I have been out of the game for about 10 years. I am recently back and I am still trying to nail down the market. Is the bottom 4K? 6K? I welcome ideas on price. Let’s say it is in good condition but some wear.
Quoted from gunstarhero:You don’t see IJs go under 6k too often these days, unless they’re legit basket cases. If you can get into a working one for 5k I’d feel like you did really well.
To be totally honest in your situation I don’t think I’d feel one bit guilty about a starting offer of 4k and just seeing where it goes.
Thanks for the feedback
