Hest Co is indeed an error message!

Nah. It's "highest score" moving.

$800-1500 for an F-14 these days, with $1000-1300 probably your average for a decent working one. They made a million of them so don't be afraid to walk away. I'd say the biggest things to check would be working and complete beacon set, and also check the inserts. Many F-14s have horribly raised inserts that turn those bonus X arrows into mini ski jumps (I once made the mistake of play testing one without the glass on and lanched a ball into the game next to it.)

yes and when you have all balls locked and MB ready. If a light bulb is out no big deal those are available, but they should all spin.

You did very well and I'd call that an outlier.

There were a couple decent working ones at Allentown last year in the 1100-1300 range.
