Quoted from N80G80:Yeah you and a handful of other people want it, at least I got a handful of pm’s already.....not sure exactly what I’m gonna do with it....I want it documented correctly, high res photos, and some gameplay videos....I’ll probably shop it out and bring it to the York show maybe? Maybe let everyone see it/play it? No idea yet though
I think if I was lucky enough to have been the buyer I would enjoy owning it for a few weeks then put it up for trade. First person willing to give me enough to own two new machines or willing to trade two high end machines for it would own it. It is neat owning something rare but I would have a heck of a lot more fun with two new JJP or two new Stern pins than with one rare pin. Even a couple of the great old classics in nice shape seems like a "fair trade" to me.
Everyone contacting you will have an excuse why you show sell it to them. See if any of them want it bad enough to buy you two new pins in exchange for it. Ideally it should go somewhere where lots of people can enjoy it. But selling it cheap to one of those places there is no guarantee how long it will be their anyway. Use the National Pinball Museum as an example of what could happen to any of those places sometime down the road.
As the new owner you can do what ever you want with it but if it was me I would move it on after enjoying it for a little while.
