Quoted from vid1900:Exactly!
When I have people over to work on the furnace or deliver a washing machine, they always ask "How much are those worth???"
I always say, "Eh, not much. Pinball's days are long gone".

But in this case, the persons who stole it, knew EXACTLY what they came to steal and how much it was worth.
Vid may be right--if anyone was in your house who you did not personally know within the last six months, I'd start there. Then again, anyone stealing chain link gates has gotta be a doper... "In the process of moving" draws tweekers like "buy a gram, get one free" day. The geniuses might have figured there was a lot of scrap $ potential in anything that heavy, so they took it. They didn't have the room (or the strength left) to take the other one. It'll either turn up in the scrap yard, for sale, or if the cops are smart enough to run the serial number--be confiscated at a dope bust (assuming you gave them the serial number to enter into their system).
