    Don't laugh! Every time the media or some reality show says an old pinball is worth $ensational amounts of money it makes sellers think their stuff is gold! The next non-collector Big Brave seller will do a google search, find these articles saying it's a 4k machine and ask 3k for a basket case...

    TMZ said that the machine is worth 3 grand. Molly later said in an article on Huffington Post that she paid 100 bucks for it basically saying it wasn't worth that much. Molly was afraid that TMZ was going to twist the story looking as if she was trying to cash in on the fame. This is also why she didnt announce a new opening of her arcade.

    Quoted from exflexer:

    This is also why she didnt announce a new opening of her arcade.

    Which one? Pin and Needles?

    So Molly annoucned the closure of her Pins and Needles arcade prior to this Caine engagement. She had plans to re-open in a new location but she didn't want to mention it thinking that people would say she was cashing in on the craze. Molly also noticed how TMZ wrote that the machine she gave away was valued "up to $3,000." So when she was interviewd by Huffington post she mentions she paid $100 for it since to downplay the crazy assumed value of the machine.

    Good for Molly and Keith for doing a good deed for a cool kid. f#@% tmz for trying to sensationalize a cool story.
