To reiterate, I'm asking for folks here to share my listing to friends/word of mouth. I am open to best offers given the time crunch I'm in. Please let me know if you can help in that manner.
Quoted from CoolCatPinball:I've had a Ripley's for many years now. It's a great game, and your machine looks nice. But, it's not selling because of the price. Drop it into the high 4's with a firm price and it will move. Maybe even low 5's, maybe.
Thank you for the advice! While your point makes sense, unfortunately, there are currently 4 other RBION's for sale which have been up since far before I posted mine. A couple in the $5k range and the others in the $4k range still haven't sold. Most have some mechanical and/or playfield issue which mine does not. Plus none have the entire suite of mods mine has. https://pinside.com/pinball/machine/ripleys-believe-it-or-not/market
I'm willing to go far lower on the price only b/c I am in a time crunch. This is why I posted mine as OBO. I had one person offer $5k which I accepted but he never responded again after that.
I've now lowered it per your advice + based on the price others are going for currently.
With all this said, I don't see how listing the price to this lower figure will actually get anyone to buy it in the needed timeframe since the other listings haven't been sold. I'm happy to claim ignorance here as this is the first time I've ever tried to sell one of my machines.
While you might find the OBO price I have listed it as hilarious, a comment like this is not conducive to my ask for help. I'm not asking for help selling it at $5700, I'm just asking for help selling it...
