Whirlwind
Williams, 1990I am going to look at a WW it is listed as follows: "Nice WW. CAB been restore 2 years ago, upgraded speakers, nearly all LED, recent flipper rebuild and n/coils"------So what do think that WW should go for???? He's asking $2500! I thought that was a little high. I had a chance to get one for $1850 last month but the guy decided to keep it. I would appreciate your thoughts and opinions.
as mentioned above, if the cab decals are done well and it has a nice playfield, then its well worth it. the flipper rebuilds, if completely rebuilt, are a nice bonus.
IMO & from what I've seen, WW is getting harder and harder to find under $2k. $2500 for a nice restored WW could be a great deal.
Of course, it depends on what "restored" means, who restored it, and the overall condition of the playfield, cabinet, boards, etc. Does shopping and replacing rubbers = restored to the seller? Always hard to know.
Oh, I missed new coils & flipper rebuild. Like I said, could be a great deal at $2500. Definitely want to inspect the playfield & cabinet thoroughly either way (inside/out, 360 degrees)
Quoted from henhel:I won't know that stuff until I actually see it.
Makes sense. Let us know what you find out! Hopefully you walk away with a sweet WW...
I know the machine you're talking about, and it looks nice. My ceilings are too low in my basement, and if they weren't it would be home already.
Do me a favor and find out if he still has that Creech!
I know of 3 in similar condition to what you explain that sold between 2800-3200 in the past 6 months.
Really will depend on overall condition of boards, pf, and cab upon actual inspection.
Almost a year ago I paid $1800 for mine. LEDs. But no restore whatsoever. Players game. So price for yours sounds reasonable.
