    I saw this and was curious what’s the most a Pin has been listed for let alone sold

    ebay.com link: 0

    If he sells this though, I’m quitting my job

    #2 5 years ago

    you would think for 100 grand seller could take the time to write a coherent sentence in the description.

    #3 5 years ago

    Haha, this guy has been trying to pawn that game off for the last few years.

    Here’s a thread from when it was last listed:

    Does it have a shaker?

    The Aaron Spelling custom pin was $175,000 per Joe Kaminkow . Mrs Spelling wanted a game, broke out the checkbook with no problem.

    There's a lot of people out there that think we're just as crazy with the money we drop on a single pin. It's all relative.

    #7 5 years ago

    $175k seems reasonable for a bespoke pin, I'd probably charge around that.

    Makes LEs seem like a joke.

    #8 5 years ago

    It's going to get meta when that BTTF hits it's 30th year for sale.

    #9 5 years ago

    BTW, that’s the cheapest item he has listed. Some Disney stuff is going for $2.3 Mil

    #10 5 years ago

    $10 million by Christmas.

    #11 5 years ago

    The guy’s a nut. I recall messaging him a while back, and the message I got back was barely coherent.

    well, its listed for that much, doubt it is "going for" that much.

    #13 5 years ago

    It was on our local craigslist earlier in the year for 25k.
    He's a fool and an idiot.
    Seen the Disney stuff to, my first thought was if it was stolen?

    #14 5 years ago

    There is a lot of claims in that ad.... none of which are true. Oh for the exception that BTTF is a pinball machine, but that's it.

    Is that Ass-Hat back at it again? He played that bullshit about a year or two ago. There's a topic about it here on Pinside:
    https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/back-to-the-future-holy-grail-of-pinballs/page/4#post-3120380

    The ad on eBay was sketchy at best, he used altered pictures of people from the movie to promote the pin, and he also used altered pictures of Rick from Pawn Stars.

    At one point he pushed the price up to $110K

    #17 5 years ago

    There is a standing cash offer of 100k each for King Kong and the original Kingpin. No takers.

    That guy will never see 100k for BTTF. Hes delusional at best.

    #18 5 years ago

    After ebay and paypal fees that ass clown will only clear about $75K. Poor schmuck. He should sell it locally and rake in the big bucks.

    Careful. Only one real one out there. I've seen more than one for sale. I've even seen two in one picture.

    LTG : )

    #21 5 years ago

    Yeah actually my BSD I would ask $100k for after I'm all done shopping it out and enhancing it.

    I didn't realize that. I find it funny that he has a $100,000 ad with no pics.

    Maybe it's from the alternate timeline where Biff gets rich off the Sports Almanac and this is the last pin in existence.

    #24 5 years ago

    I'd rather have Lazer Lord

    #25 5 years ago

    I made him an offer of $673. Think I'll get it?

    #26 5 years ago

    Think I'll go $674 and start a bidding war.

    #27 5 years ago

    Hahaha, that description is pure comedy gold- ‘Even our President Ronald Regan quoted “Back to the Future” as an term that’s part of the American Culture even more icon then American Apple Pie’, owned by a person of importance whose identity is secret... can’t stop LOLing

    Was chatting with Brent Spiner after I had him sign a STTNG translite and he tried to sell me the game they gave him as part of the cast complete with a commemorative plaque as it was apparently still in its box in storage...he was asking $100,000...I asked if he had removed the batteries before it went into storage...was a hilarious conversation lol

    Wow when was this? I went to Boston Comic-CON last weekend and he was there.

    It was at a Creation Entertainment event in Chicago a couple of years ago that had most of the cast from STTNG there on the day I met him.

    Speaking of that game, it was not at PATZ. Wonder if it will make its way to Pinball Expo??

    #32 5 years ago

    Biggest question I have about this pin is.. is it immaculate??

    This will never cease to be funny, and we got it on Pinside. No other forumn...

    #34 5 years ago

    Who would want to look at Aaron Spelling's face while playing pinball?! I will have to take a pass.

    #35 5 years ago
