Greetings everyone,
Brand-new here. My dad needs to make space so he is looking to get rid of his pinball machines. Was hoping I can get an idea of what he should be asking for his Gottlieb 4 player Far Out machine. He hasn't had it assembled and powered in a long time, and since I live 4 states away I am unsure of the condition at the moment. Last I remember art and playfield was good and everything was functional.

- If cleaned up and working any idea what he can/should ask for it?
- Also should he get it clean minor restored for better value?

Price is going to be pretty subjective on a Gottlieb 4 player EM like Far Out.

I would say for one in fully working condition with a good playfield and backglass, $600 would be about the average. Plus or minus a couple of hundred based upon condition.

I paid $225 at a auction last year. It was described just like your dads, sitting unused for years.

Yes, While Far Out is a fun game with great Artwork, its not one of the more desireable multi player Gottliebs.

So, Broken but in good cosmetic shape: Probably $200-$300.
All Fixed up (shopped out) with less than stellar BG and/or Playfield and Cabinet: $300-$500
Very Good Backglass, Nice Playfield and Cabinet, fully shopped out: $400-$600.
I think it would be hard to get anything over $600 or $700 unless its pristine or in a retail shop.
