I have a test game (or early production run with the red middle insert) POTC in pretty good condition that I am trying to sell. Hoping you guys could give me a little advice on how to price it. Currently I have it at 5k. The game plays great. The playfield doesnt have any wear that I can see. The left side of the backbox has a gouge and the front of the cabinet has a few as well. Overall in pretty decent shape.

Has a couple extras as well. Colordmd, invisiglass, backalley dmd bracket, cannons on rails, wood plank, wood under cannons, cannon on shooter lane, speaker inserts and speaker lights.

What should I price this at? Thanks

Quoted from Mike_J:

I am not sure where it should be priced based upon the options you have. The ColorDMD really looks great.
My neighbor picked up a perfect, bone stock, HUO (less than 250 plays) in NJ for $4,600 around 6 months ago.

Yeah its tough to figure out. This one is definitely NOT HUO but its in pretty decent shape (I think).

Quoted from rai:

You could probably sell all the mods for $700-800 but I know that's a bitch selling 10 different pieces.

yeah, I would rather not split apart and deal with shipping and all that stuff. I was figuring around that (or less) for the mods too.

Quoted from rai:

Actually I think it's a fair price (but with negotiations) you might be prepared to accept less. I mean usually I'd price a game and be willing to accept 5% less if the deal was clean.

Good philosophy. I agree with you.

Quoted from rai:

Sounds like a very fair price with all those options, you could remove the expensive options and sell a la cart but overall I think you hit a good price with all these options.
PotC is built like a tank compared to the Stern pros you see today that sell for $4700 new with no PF support, no lollypop style side rails etc..
Edit don't like that gouge in the head that's really what's bringing the price down, people like me like mint or 98% games games and that gouge is an eyesore. I'm sure that's knocking hundreds off the price.
I mean I'd rather get a 98% game no wear with less mods for similar price. My HUO PotC looks as new and I've seen a few others as good. If there was some way to repair that scratch I'd bet it would sell better.
Also do you have a shooter lane picture?

Missed your request for shooter lane pic I did take one but it was blurry and I'm at work right now. I can put one up; there isn't really any wear on the shooter lane and it doesnt look embedded with dirt and grime. I guess I mean in this case with this game it didn't tell me if it was drastically played or not...just my opinion (but I'm no expert).

Quoted from pinnyheadhead:

Where are you trying to sell this for $5k? Put it up on Pinside and see how it goes.

craigslist in grand rapids mi. I like getting feedback on what I put up, but don't really want to get bashed a ton so I tend not to list games here (thats not an insult to pinside at all....more of I don't have thick skin).

Quoted from rai:

I like those sling shot plastics btw where did you get them?

Can't remember who but there was a thread on pinside advertising them. Not sure if any are left.
