A good friend of mine has a fully restored Taxi I'd consider buying from him. I need a little info on current market value. It has the following

Perfect restored original cabinet touched up and clearcoated. Nicest I've ever seen
Restored original playfield. Clearcoated perfect
Inside so clean you could eat off it.
Original topper not yellowed
I'm sure new ramps and spin out
Plastics perfect
Nicest all original Taxi I've ever seen. Probably better than NIB

Bump anybody?

It's probably worth a lot of money. Parts are expensive and it takes a massive amount of time to do a restoration.
Example. I bought a restored whirlwind with new everything on it for 5k while I see average copies of it all day long for 2-2.5k.

Take the average price of a Taxi pin and then start adding in all the costs for new parts. You will get to a large number pretty quickly without even adding in the labor cost.

No pictures to share? Hard to price without seeing it regardless of the description.

If he is a 'good friend', you don't need any advice.
