Need a price check on an NBA Fastbreak. Code is at 2.1
Rubber is good but should be replaced. Playfield could use a polishing. Works 100% and includes manual.

Not sure if you are selling or buying, so here's my take on Fastbreak.
That game takes a lot of time to shop out with rubber and clean, especially the rings under the timer at the back of the playfield.
Also, there are a LOT of coils to clean, replace parts and re-sleeve.
If the ramps are cracked, as most are by now look at $250 - $300 to replace the 3 of them and get new decals where needed.
The right ramp is essentially now only available as a bare ramp, so expect to spend several hours removing the parts from the old ramp (de-riveting) and cleaning and then re-riveting the parts to the new ramp. The decals for this ramp also have to be purchased separately.
So, depending on condition, the value can vary widely.
I think a nice clean, shopped/rebuilt game with unbroken ramps and plastics can be had for $2000 perhaps a bit more. Go to the Forum and search "fastbreak" to see the adds for the game recently.
Not sure what the total condition of the game is, but say $1500 would be a price for one that is in good physical condition but needs a major cleaning/rebuilding and say a 1 ramp replaced.
Parts are available, but plastics are getting harder to find. It's becoming a more widely accepted game and people are starting to rebuild them, as I have mine, and the supply of OEM plastics are starting to run out, as far as I could find there are no plastic sets available. Mark in Australia has a lot of parts that can't be found elsewhere.

Thanks for your input Robert. Selling it for my mother in law. Appears to be HUO but I have no documentation to back it up. Ramps all in tact. They look good. Only plastic needed was the defender. Got that from Australia. Inside the cab is clean. No need to redo the coils sleeves or anything like that. It could just use a minor shop job. The defender area is a little dusty. There are maybe 1 or 2 bulbs out on the play field. There is a bad spot on the left side rail. Some slight scuffing on the front of the cab head from moving the pin without something in between the cab and head. It could use new leg levelers as the the current ones are dull now. Although they are functional.
