    A High Speed for 3500 in CT?
    nwct.craigslist.org link

    Why do I even bother looking.

    I have picked up great games in other states but not around here.

    The whole tri state area sucks in my opinion. Too many sharks circling the tank, i dont even bother looking anymore.

    Here's a deal from my area:
    Stern 2014 Mustang LE, (184 out of 500 made!!!!) $10,000 "NON-NEGOTIABLE" billed as a rare collector's item.
    They want more than 1,500 over Stern's MSRP. I don't claim to be an expert on pinball prices but Stern literally just released this in April. Somehow, I don't think it's worth it especially when a quick search turns up that certified dealers are actually selling Mustang LE and the other Mustang models at below MSRP.

    And the difference between the LE, Pro and Premium appear to be pretty much just different artwork, different music tracks and some other small modifications to the playfield. To get multiball jackpots you just...hit the car (which is huge) in the middle of the playfield. Just saying...

    The same people appear to be selling a number of other common arcade and pinball games for somewhat over-inflated prices, at least in my opinion.

    There is a fine line btwn "buyer beware" and "theft".

    don't be so sure...I was at captains auction today in Anaheim California and saw a ac dc pro sell for $4,200...if you add the 8% sales tax and 15% buyers premium it comes to $5,250...also saw a metallica pro sell for $4,000, putting it at an even 5k after tax and premium...both of those prices are over what you can get a NIB for delivered to your home

    Those could have been shilled up then bought back.
    I will let you in on a little secret if you promise not to tell anybody...
    He ain't a real captain.
