    I can remember this title typically going for $10K. I just saw a few listings @ Mr. Pinball in the $5K range.

    I've never seen a standard condition tz go for 10k.

    Big time.

    Bubble is bursting. There are $8000 TZs everywhere!!!

    Also that $5,000 is probably a scam. Go ahead and take a chance at being “the lucky buyer” as the ad days.

    I know I like to make sweeping and wildly inaccurate posts/predictions about the pinball market based on one morning’s worth of mrpinball ads (one of which is a probable scam). Just makes sense!

    Never seen a regular one for 10k.

    10K for my TZ? Thanks but no thanks.

    I think it's the opposite. TZ asking prices seem to be continuously climbing like most other 90's Bally/Williams games.

    No, unless it's a HEP restored TZ prices are a good amount under $10k. Condition is king so a $5k TZ is possible but I would expect it to be in very poor condition for that price.

    Disagree. Not in the past few years. They seem to have flat lined as for what prices actually sell.

    This title never typically went for 10K. You on the pipe man, put it down before you post.

    #11 5 years ago

    You can have my TZ for $9000.

    And you can have mine for $9000 CAD, which is like 4 bucks USD.

    On average, I generally see them for $6500-$8k. I don't think the price has really moved around too much from that range in a few years.

    There have been a few $10k examples, but those were high-end restorations, like this: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/fs-twilight-zone-hepkelly-pinball-machine

    There's one listed on Pinside for 65k

    #15 5 years ago

    When was the standard price $10000? I don't think the price has moved much either but it is harder to find one for less than $6000. Used to see bone stock ones that needed a little work or a little cleaning for $5500 or even less. That seems to be pretty rare these days.

    #16 5 years ago

    Well, 7 years ago it was a $3500 machine: http://web.archive.org/web/20110901000432/http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/afm-vs-tz

    There are too many TZs for it to ever be a 10K machine, imo. I think there are like 2300 pinsiders with TZ in their collection. That is pretty close to number one from what I've seen.

    90% of them go for $6500-$7500 depending on condition and grip on reality the seller has...it's been like that for over a year and will probably stay in that range. IMO a solid all-time classic with a rare mix of great shots and just enough depth to never go out of style.
