Quoted from PiNDoCToR:I'm buying both stocks and pinball games so if anybody wants to sell these to me....

Cue Ball Wizard
I have a Baffle Ball for 40 years....whats the going rate?
Quoted from PiNDoCToR:Not sure but many of the "antiquey" machines, pre-war, etc have such a limited market that they don't go for big money. I think there was a pretty decent Five Star Final at the York show for a few hundred bucks or less but I want a nicer one. I bought a super mint 1931 Whiffle Board that was from the Baltimore pinball museum for $400 or less.
Id agree...somewhere between $400 and $600 is the number, with condition etc.
Im not at $400, but between $520 and $550 plus shipping is my number...
Shoot me a PM interested.
Quoted from Utesichiban:Good point. I do notice it more coming from young and healthy people though.
There seems to be a strong sentiment amongst youth and singles that it's no big deal because they'll likely only get minor symptoms. Just live life and not worry about it because it is only dangerous for older people and those with health problems.
I just find the lack of seldf awareness and callousness of these type of comments disturbing.

Stay longer if you like it.
Might work.
My stocks dropped, I took a loss and sold them...fear they would go lower.
My pinballs Drop? Im not selling them, I play with them, they give me pleasure, my stocks dont.
Thin the heard if cash is needed...sure. And we all have different positions in our lives, to sell when we want to.
Bargains are always there....patience isnt.
I have to sell 1-2 a year anyway to meet my financial goals.
Quoted from Utesichiban:My alarm clock this morning was a 5.7 earthquake here in the Sslt Lake Valley. Fortunately just a big jolt. Happy to report my pins are fine and intact
have to watch those Super Volcanoes...they are watching the market too!
Quoted from Utesichiban:I hope this isn't true but it doesn't surprise me. Too many of these kids could care less about anyone but themselves and self gratification.
My apologies, this is not meant as criticism of what you are saying, I agree, I just wanted to share
the first time we have written this:
The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households.

Quoted from wolfemaaan:Pinball hasn’t, but panicky old people have
"Doctor: We're seeing people in their 40s on ventilators"
Im guessing you are younger than that.
