Quoted from TigerLaw:More on topic, someone bought a game from an operator that had the leger of the operator from the 70’s through the 90’s on it with NIB prices. I can’t recall who it was but maybe he will see this thread and post that list again for us.
A great example that most OPs bought many of is Bally KISS.
No multiball, no ramps, no music, no speech, no stereo, plywood with patches and boatmen up and down the sides, fiberboard cab floor, back and head back, 6 digit scoring - rolled over back to zero, incandescent lighting.
It cost us $1,800 in 1978.
Adjusted for inflation that works out to $7,212 in 2018 dollars.
Quoted from jfre81:That said, location pins could be charging $2-3 a play to keep up with inflation on the coin drop from the 50-cent norm in the 80s/90s.
Exactly.
The first pin I put out for .50 cent play was Black Knight in 1980.
.50 cents in 1980 would be $1.59 2018
So quit bitching about $1 drops...
