Road Show
Williams, 1994I am looking for a met pro I sold a met premium and I really miss it.
Met is my preference but will consider other offers as we'll. The RS is completely restored with a CC'd play field from high end pins.
3500

Quoted from wcbrandes:one of these pins, not unlike my FH, that is tough for seller to put a price on. Beautiful pin though. any ideas?
Are you asking what the selling price is? I am asking for trades not cash offers. Maybe I am misunderstanding the statement
Quoted from bellbrand:Are you asking what the selling price is? I am asking for trades not cash offers. Maybe I am misunderstanding the statement
Even if you are asking for a trade, a value has to be placed on the pin, unless you are looking for a straight trade for a MET pro.
Gorgeous pin! Good luck Lisa!
I rarely say this, but $3,500 is an absolute steal for this game. I think you are undervaluing it by at least a grand.

PM sent. I will buy it outright! then you can go buy whatever you want
Quoted from wcbrandes:sorry whysnow I had already sent a pm however I guess you could up bid me all is fare in buying machines, and im sure he would like as much as possible
figured you were PMing a trade. I PM'd earlier than posting but sometimes it is nice to put it in a thread also. 
I have cash and would love to upgrade my RS with this example. RS is a keeper and at this price it is well worth it to save on the work I would need to get mine in similar condition.
I actually think he is about 2k under real value, but that depends on the condition of the rest of the game. I am assuming it is every bit as nice as the pf.

I am only asking about what I paid.. It is probably worth more.
Quoted from bellbrand:I have had a ton of pm's
I am working on a few deals here locally
I would prefer not to ship at this time but not saying I won't if the right trade comes along.
how much does a MetPro cost?
Maybe we can work something out which results in you getting a NIB metpro?
Quoted from Aurich:Metallica is like twice as good now as it was when you sold it!
Rub it in lol
Quoted from Whysnow:I am assuming it is every bit as nice as the pf.
I would guess it is nice but not as nice as hep's work on the pf. I could be wrong. Good luck trying to work a deal.
Wow I just did a full restoration on mine with chrome and cc playfield and my offers at the ohio show topped 8k anyone looking for rs should jump on this one ! I would have bought it myself I have over 6k in mine without labor
ice trying to buy nothing going local. Another came to my attention that is cherry (whatever that means) but trust the seller bought before from him. Said out of box nice Its a prototype and 4500 shipped so sat 4k to 4.1. Whats the difference?

2k under real value? Getting 2k at all for an average condition roadshow is a very difficult thing to do. This one is not your typical average condition RS. Very nice restore job, but I really think it's priced about right since a little over double of your typical one.
well you try and sell your average run of the mill one around here, and ask $1600 or $1800 for it, and you will be sitting on it for about 3 to 6 months. This is a great restore, and i've always said restoration, sample/proto and HUO examples usually get double or even triple of normal rate. So I could see it fetching 4k to the right buyer.
Seem most sell around here for 2000 to 3000 depending on condition .I bought mine few months ago all working with leds and faded art but mint play field for 2500 .great game especially if you dont mind the music .theres so much going on and to do compared to alot of game that cost much more .I would have paid 4000 for this restored one
Quoted from wcbrandes:he had a dozen people offer full price
She. 
Quoted from wcbrandes:I never even got a response to a full price offer!
You offered a met pro?
Quoted from CaptainNeo:well you try and sell your average run of the mill one around here, and ask $1600 or $1800 for it, and you will be sitting on it for about 3 to 6 months.

unfortunately you are wrong on price of an avg RS Neo. I will buy anyone you can find right now in a 2 hr drive for 1600-1800 >> I bet it will take you 6 months to find one and then when you do it will be beat and far from avg.
i believe pinside behaviour finally backfired on a pinsider. I agree this machine was way under priced. Appears to have gone to a higher bidder now
I think the seller made it pretty clear that there was a lot of interest and that she was working on a few local deals. She also stated she would get back to you guys if the local deals didn't work out. Is my reading comprehension poor?
Quoted from castlesteve:I believe Pinside behaviour finally backfired on a Pinsider ...
How so? Most people (Neo excluded) think she had the game valued too low. There is nothing wrong with pointing that out. People certainly don't have a problem calling out high prices. They claim they are "protecting" potential buyers. What's wrong with protecting the seller for a change?
i may be reading it wrong but after Whysnow said you should have a price on it unless your looking for a straight trade with a met pro ...and she put one on at 3500, I wrongly assumed it was now for sale as well. Now perhaps she meant to put it there so a met pro person would then be able to get some reading of what her value is and if so then GLWT. Still looking for a perfect RS!

I thought 3500 was the amount of trade value she thought it was worth. I'm not going after it, good luck. $3502
