I've seen that too, bugs me because they think it's some cool rare thing so they ask well more than they're worth, especially the 1960s and later stuff that's all mechanical. I'll see those pop up on CL, ebay, whatever, and the dimwits want hundreds or more when they're realistically (usually in the shape I've seen) ranging from parts machines for a few bucks, to some with issues worth like $20 or so up to a nice one worth maybe a $100. It's the newer ones with the LCD/LED displays, large moving parts, 2-4 speakers and a crap ton of lights and gizmos that get into that near or over $1000 mark, not the old stuff. I only look as I used to have a 1960s one my mom owned I really enjoyed and would like that again with just the flower drops, big thing in the middle, a bell or two and some lights. And in the 90s before the LCD stuff first appeared I had a 5 way slot machine middle game one with an overly loud speaker belching out small jingles or annoying repetition and even new(refurb) from a US catalog it was only a few hundred bucks.
