I have a friend of a friend who has a Flash Gordon and he is moving and can't take the pin with him so he wants to sell it. I've never seen the machine, but it is in a home environment so I assume it is in average condition. What would be the average price for one. Thanks for any help.

"average" and "fully working"? 2K-3K... Not many details means a not so narrow estimate!

Project games seem to go for $1500-$2k depending on the cosmetics and if it boots and/or flips or not.

Fully working games, depending on condition can go anywhere between $2500-$3k+.

No idea anymore. Director had 'trouble' selling a good looking one for 2100, which is just amazing to me.

Yeah, I can't believe that either. I paid 2k for a similar FG 3 years ago from here - in fact that one had a much better playfield than mine. I can only guess the cab put people off for some reason, most originals (like mine) have very badly faded cabs anyway.

What did his cab look like?

Was that the one with the odd custom paint job on the cabinet?

If so, I think folks would prefer a faded original to something that doesn't look faithful to the original. That may have been why it was a bit difficult to sell.

It's a custom wrap I believe. I'm surprised that would turn buyers off, as you can get Pinball Pimp's stencils for under $200.

It takes extra work to prep and paint a cab. Plus, not everyone has the workspace to do that.

Thanks for the replies, now I know a ballpark price, I'll see if I can get some pictures to narrow it down better.
