Williams, 1993Hi guys, need some pretty speedy advice.
I have an oppurtunity at a MM, it has a few area's or wear on the playfield, but overall a fully working clean routed example. He wants my Wh20 which is in a similar kind of condition, routed, dings to the cab, but fully working and clean and my beautiful Spidey.
What do you guys think?
Depends on why you want the MM? Trophy pin? Enjoy the play? You have a large collection, so there is plenty of variety. You come out a little better in terms of money I would think. If you really like the game, do it.

no way, keep sm. sm is way better than mm alone. mm is a great game, but no 14-16k great. one of those games you buy last.
buy mm, sell wh20.
Quoted from Hotwheels2me:It looks like I'm in the minority on this one. Yes, financially this trade may make sense. But I really like SM, WH2O is not bad, but I think SM is better than MM, and don't really get why MM is worth more than $10K. MM is fun, but I don't see it as better than any other machine made.
+1 on that. Financially makes sense but in terms of the fun I have playing each pin I would rather play SM over MM and having a WH20 on it's side makes it even sweeter. But as far as worth and value you would be winning this one hands down by trading for the MM.
I have a WH2O in similar condition to yours and a beautiful HUO LOTR LE. If someone wanted to trade me an MM for them, it would honestly be a tough call. I happen to love MM, but I'm not sure I can justify the current asking price. I guess it would all boil down to how much better of a deal I would be getting money wise. I probably would end up selling the MM at some point, so I would then have to go out and find another LOTR, since it is a keeper for me. This would obviously require some time and effort, and that's why it would be a tough call for me. Does any of this make any sense?

Makes complete sense.
I have to say that if I was on the flip side and trading away my MM I would only be interested in 2 other A listers (say TZ and LOTR; both in nice condition). MM is a hard title to find in decent shape for a decent price and because of that, if I were trading 'down' in value then I would want 2 other nice games to replace it. Basically I would need to offset my decrease in value with time saved in search for those 2 games and time saved in restoring them after finding them.
Quoted from HOOKED:SM route 5-5500 huo 6k + stock
Are SM's really selling that high?
Quoted from YZRider926:Are SM's really selling that high?
I've seen em sell that high here in Northern Cali but we tend to be on high end of prices so not sure about other places.
Hmm, might have to consider selling mine, haha.
Probably not going to happen, I don't think the wife would let me as her brother and father love the game.

Smart wife! 
Quoted from The_Dude_Abides:Smart wife!
Haha. Yeah if I sold it I would probably sell it to them for cheap, but then they would probably just leave it at my place, so there is no incentive for them.
