Just picked up a mint beautiful Ripleys yesterday. Lady told me she got it brand new for her son and that he never played it. I look thru the diagonostic last night to see total plays. If it's true and has not been reset I can't beleive it. Here are a few pics.

Easily $3500 and up....... of course HUO still may have a little scratch here and there or some bumps and wear (which will adjust the price)...... but a mint out of box HUO low play condition game should have zero issue getting over $3500

If people are really getting 3,500 for these now, than that's the price. But just 2 years ago a nice HUO was 2,500. I'm actually interested there. At $3,500 not so much.

Any pinsiders actually pay $3,500 for one?

I might be in at $3,500 if it were close and no shipping. I love the game.

I did. Worth every penny. A total blast to play.

Thanks guys. Like I have read and seen so many times on Pinside CONDITION IS EVERYTHING. Well this is about as good as it gets.

I would say 3200, if there is no wear at flipper buttons based on the pics you showed. Couldn't really see the full extent of the scoop or shooter lane though. I sold mine for 2700 about a year and a half ago and it w as absolutely flawless on the PF and cabinet.

If anyone has a HUO example of RBION in the Detroit area matching these types of descriptions, let me know.

No wear at flipper buttons or play field at all. Going to look at it closer this weekend.

why don't you tell us how many? It's worth $3500ish IMHO.

Looks awesome, but RBION didn't come with white rubber and red post sleeves when it was brand new, unless the previous owner made those changes, which is unlikely if he never even played it.

As for pricing, $2750ish in good working condition, I would say $3250ish for HUO.

I had one in similar condition with all leds and few other upgrades and took a few weeks to sell at 3k

It did ship with white rubbers (and one black one below the pops). Red post sleeves are definitely not factory. The scoop looks relatively nice. Good pics of the flipper button areas and shrunken head magnet would help.

I don't play the price guesstimating game and I especially won't on this one. HUO or not, it's a very nice example and shouldn't be sold. Update the software and flipper coils and play the hell out of it. When the post rubber to the right of the scoop breaks, replace it with a black one.

There have been a couple for sale recently in that price range. I don't think any of them were very local to this area though.

The owners did not even know the back box came down so I don't think the new how to change the settings. Total plays show 55.

Sold my HUO RBION here on pinside a month or two ago $2800 + shipping.
Tried $3400 and $3200 for awhile with no bites.

Thanks. I appreciate all the responses.

3,200-3,500 sounds right depending on area / availability. An extremely underrated game and worth every penny in mint condition. Glad I found mine when I did

#21 9 years ago

I have mine listed for $3500, a few bites. Might be on the high side, but I'm not particularly eager to let it go, such a fun and deep game. It has some flipper button wear that's been touched up well, but playfield would pass for huo, condition is great. No mushroomed magnets or wear around them, full led, lighted scoop, no cracked or missing plastics. Would love to trade it for a TZ, adding cash of course.
