I'll kebosh all the speculation right now: I WILL NOT end this auction early, not my style. If I do I'll shave my head and paint it red. This is all about satisfying a personal financial commitment with the added bonus of throwing some sunlight on a dark part of pinball. The existence of this thread is already hilarious and priceless to me - anything that reinforces pinball as pure fun is worth it.

Just to up the "WTF" factor beyond that awesome trophy, I'll also kick in a NOS Evel Kneivel pf and $500 to the daredevil closest to the pin, even if it hammers at $13,412. Let's just hope I don't get a non-payer, then I'd have to re-list and we'd be subjected to TWO weeks of this craziness, and I'd get to yank another NOS pf out of the rack. Have fun and game-on gents!

Won't happen my friend, this baby goes to the end. BTW, did you even put a number in? The prize package is great - cool NOS pf, $500, and one bad-ass trophy. Hell, if you win I'll even throw in that nice POTO glass you've been wanting. Go for it TBK, spin the lightning wheel...

With a couple of minutes left the high bidder just might be the most unforgettable pinsider of all time (if he isn't already). I hope no snipers come in, too much fun if ended right here, right now. This is classic.....

Drat ! K-man sniped by a hundred bucks. Whoever won the contest PM me so I can get the $500 and PF headed your way. Thanks V for coming up with this little contest, and everyone who tossed in a number. It's been fun.
