I love my Torchy and will never sell it. $300 is about right, give or take. You'll never make money on it so don't buy it to flip. That broken plastic is broken on all of 'em, by the way. Mine has sentimental value as I blew quarter after quarter in it and Joker Poker which were in my dorm when I was in college. Now they're next to each other in my gameroom along with a few other classics, such as Gorgar, Space Invaders, Firepower...

Yeah that's one large plastic that attaches to the post at the bottom right of that drop bank. Mine is broken too but you can't really tell as it's still properly held in place. I paid $300 about 7 years ago and repinned a few connectors to get the game to work 100%. As we all know, one pinball machine doesn't cut it, I don't care what game that one machine is. You will get tired and bored with this as you would any game but it really doesn't matter. Pinballs are like potato chips, you can't have just one. So go ahead and buy it for the $500. That's small potatos when you come to the realization that it's really only the beginning...
