    Quoted from midcoastsurf:

    I was thinking between $1,500-$2,000 depending on condition. I sold a nice one with a full tear-down shop job for $1,950 within the last year with a nice playfield.

    It's been crazy seeing $3000+ for T2's lately on CL especially when you are in the market for one (hope to make it my first pin, that or a Getaway). Seems like 2 months ago they were priced from $1800-2000 or so. I'm looking for one I the $2000 or so price range. No luck. This game getting more demand lately?

    Quoted from CCPL:

    I am selling my Metallica Pro LED model. I’m the first owner and it’s been sitting in the exact same spot since I unboxed it. It has a few simple mods and I’ve also changed a lot of the LEDs from stock which you can see in the photos and video.

    Here’s a link directly to a video to better show the lighting:

    The game is located in Folsom. I’m asking $4800 but I MAY be interested in working in a trade if you have a game I’m interested in.
    Thanks,
    Michael

    I love Phoenix Games. They have a great selection of pins and the staff is super friendly. Chris was very helpful and gave me some good advice when I was searching for my Metallica. I will check out your Flash next time I'm there if I can get my son off the Godzilla!

    Quoted from Vino:

    I was pleased to find today that Chris, the Pinball Pirate, is also now a local Stern distributor.
    A SW pro, BM66, and SMVE were set up and ready as well as other NIB in the shop.
    A great resource overall, and nice to see his biz grow with more buying options out there for our community.
    Congrats!

    This is great news. I can go through him to upgrade my Metpro to MetPre

    #4631 6 years ago

    Congrats Chris-

    Looking for a NIB JJP Wizard of Oz with 2.0 boards- PM me if you know any distributors that might have- Thanks-

    #5860 3 years ago

    Thanks for that. I did so and they only have YBR’s available.

    #5862 3 years ago

    Automated has a few WoZ Ruby Reds but has a $1,000 dealer mark up on them currently. I tried them last week. I’d buy right now at $9,500 but not interested in their mark up.

    Pinball Pirate has YBR’s only currently as well.

    Might be a lost cause for now. Just thought I would throw it out there, I appreciate the suggestions. Thanks everyone!

    Quoted from DruTheFu:

    Thanks all for the replies and input so far. Sounds like I may be a little late to the inter-State hustle for savings.
    Wishful thinking on trying to save a thousand dollars or so on a future JJP title.

    I’m surprised there are no Nevada or Oregon distributors with stock and showrooms.

    I’m going to try and unload a Big Blue SF2 CE arcade machine and an Atari Toobin arcade machine again. These are OG not Arcade1up. If anyone is interested, PM me. I’m finally free all week to try again.

    Quoted from arcadenerd925:

    Ugh... Toobin!!! I wish i had the damn space for this!! Hang on to it for like 4 more months and then I will totally buy it, haha (JK, ugh)

    It’s a fun game. Luckily my waterfall marquee still works too. Such a wacky concept.
