I really like this game and recommend it.

But I don't know what prices are in Europe and my sense is all machines are more expensive there. Here in the states they sell for around 400 US dollars or 295.43 Euros. I'm probably not much help beyond bumping your post.

Best wishes

Wish you were closer to me. I've actually been pretty curious about this game. Love the music!

Maybe I've missed it, but I haven't seen any of these is working order sell for $400. $600-800 is what I've seen on these forums, although I'm sure CL deals pop up for less.

That said, I definitely agree with your recommendation. Night Moves really utilizes its wide body well, there is plenty to do on the playfield, which was laid out very nicely by John Trudeau. And I love the angle you get playing while seated in front of it.

You're most likely right. I just pulled that price out of the guide. And Night Moves seems to have become very popular lately. It had a low production run and I'll bet they're fairly rare in Europe.

Hey Dezaanster, you might want to re think this. Maybe make the seller an offer.

NM and CC are very rare. There are many people looking for these now. The price may be high, but you have to weight something like that against how much you actually want this niche machine, and the likelihood of you coming across one again.

Good ol' CC ambiguity. (Cactus Canyon vs Caribbean Cruise! )

For less familiar readers, I just want to point out that the "CC" referenced in this thread is the other Gottlieb cocktail that features multi-ball, "Caribbean Cruise," which shares essentially the same cabinet as Night Moves, but is a System 3 (Night Moves is a System 80b).

In threads talking about NM, I figure CC is understood. It's like RS in a Stones thread.

I bought a beat up non-working example recently for somewhere in the general range of what you have found.

I would guess they are VERY rare in EU, so if you like it and it is working then offer him $500 and see what happens.

These are indeed very rare in Europe. In over 12 years of collecting, this is the first one I've come across.

Todd from TNT has an interesting story on its history in a Youtube video for this game. According to him, it was never sold to distributors. Just as a franchise. Which makes sense with the fact that you almost never see these in Europe.

Anyway, I've just bought the game the OP was referring to. It's in great condition. I've ordered Noflix Plus leds and transparent rubbers for it to make it look even cooler.

I acquired a NM about 10 years ago. I stopped at a bowling alley on my way to Lake Tahoe. There it was sitting in the corner. I asked the manager about it and he said to call the owner, which I did. The owner said it did OK there but nothing to speak of. I offered him a 4 day / 3 night stay at our FunHouse (vacation home) in Lake Tahoe, valued at $199 night = $597. He agreed. He has never called me back since.

However, I did stop in the same bowling alley several years back. I mentioned my arrangement with the manager, which he remembered. He said the "owner" of the game, went to jail for a very long time. I didn't ask, and he didn't offer why. He said it looks like I got the game for free. Very lucky for me. I'm still good on my offer to him tho.

I just came across this old post. Has it been a year already? Wow. Time flies.

Like I said in an earlier post, I bought the actual machine the OP was referring to. Cleaned it, mylared it, LED'ed it out with Noflix Plus. It now looks like this.

It turns out to be a great machine, especially at parties. I got offered more than twice what I paid for the machine, but for now it's not going anywhere. Way too much fun!

The best of the cocktail pins by far, barely missed one for 700$ a month ago, such a great game.
