Thinking about some of the trades I have made over the years. Most were fair and even trades back in the day. Most would still be fair today. The exception may be the Fast Draw EM I traded for a Stern Big Game I made over 12 years ago. I traded a nice condition Gottlieb Fast Draw for a nice condition Big Game. In todays market I would have probably had to trade the Fast Draw AND at least a few hundred bucks for a Big Game. The classic Sterns have really garnered more money over the last few years. Any trades (one way or the other ) stick out for you guys/gals?

I’ve only traded a game once..straight up for another; an abra ca dabra for a jacks open. Both were in pretty good shape, but found the JO a lil quicker and more of a challenge. Later sold it, and used the $ for a North star..would I do it again? Absolutely..meeting new people in this hobby, and making good/fair transactions is all part of it..playing new/different games and finding out what you like won’t get old..

I traded a Houdini for MMR. I would do that again in a heartbeat but I don't know that I would find a taker.

I traded tz for Shadow and Popeye. I regret that trade. TZ shot up and both of those turds continue to stink imo

They did make another short run of them not very long ago.
I have an ecto cooler refrigerator magnet for the memories

I traded my pimped out Stern POTC for a then new title, perhaps you’ve heard of it, a TFLE. Granted I liked the TFLE, but I missed my POTC.
