Price?

Marcus

Awesome! I played one and found it to be quite fun, as I wasn't sure what exactly to expect. Good luck with the sale or trade!

Brad

Last one I saw sold for under 4k. 10k is crazy money. Was that on eBay?

Open to trades?

Although, I don't think my trade offer would come close to what you would need for this.

Looks very nice.

Curious when this was? The one that I knew of that changed hands the middle of last year went in the $10k ranged, it was collector to collector and not eBay. That being said I saw one up north that didn't work traded in the sub $4k range but that was probably three years ago. Hell if you just want to throw out numbers the guy I bought mine from only paid $90 for it which really doesn't mean anything about its value when I bought it or today.

A year or two ago I believe on KLOV or maybe here. Started as a wanting to trade for a TZ post. Not saying anything about value, just was surprised these jumped up so much.

There are only 90 of these out there...and God knows if they all survived.

Seller can ask whatever he wants. Buyers can purchase one of the many other Varkon's up for sale.

It's high on my wishlist, but I just don't think I'm in a position to go for it right now.

(Unless OP is looking for trades).

Friend has one here in ma. Not as perfect condition as this one though.. Glws

Man! Why didnt I win that powerball?? WHY?!?!?!

Drooling.................................

Make sure it goes to a good home.

I am with ya on that one.

2014 Mr Pinball guide $1750

For reference Joust $4875 in guide.

Ya I can't see 10,000.00 happening. Ed

There's a very good reason only 90 were made, it's boring as hell

Very cool piece just not fun. Last one I saw went for 2900. Thought that was too much but purely as a collectible, ok.

Don't get me wrong, it's a cool piece. But in my mind, it's a $2800 item.

I did pass on one 3 1/2 years ago at $2700 and went with an AFM instead. No regrets.

Hi,

I've been wanting one of these ever since I saw one at my first CAX in 2009! I know the play field is small, and getting it into the inner part is cool, yet even smaller, but oddly I like it anyway. I absolutely love the sound effects... and can listen to that noise it make to launch the ball all day long.

That being said, would you take 3K for it?

I'm pretty sure you won't... but I think I've made the game famous on KLOV over the years, and I'm in a book playing it. I just want one of my own.

(Please don't laugh too loud at my offer... it would hurt my feelings)

3k? Are you serious? He had better jump on you! Ed

Pinball or arcade? Ed

My money is on the pin not the vid.

Yes, I can confirm that my former Varkon sold for considerably more than $10K. I offered it up at a crazy price and someone called me on it. I was perfectly happy with the game and people loved playing it. We bought a 26' camper with the money and my wife doesn't bug me about game purchases anymore.

And I was able to account for 29 games when I tried to do it. I'm guessing a few became videos back in the day.

Congrats on the sale.

Let me Guess AL a guy named Dave from TN? Congrats on your sale OP, I like the game but dont love it and dont think I would ever have one in the collection, Great piece of history.

How much did the defender sell for? I would like to have had a chance at it. Ed

Beautiful!

Nice Varkon (and Medusa) FWIW, the Varkon I'm playing in this pic went for close to 10K (not my game), so while that does seem crazy high, it happens.

You could at least have the decency to donate a percentage of your sales to pinside since you are running this auction bullshit and avoiding all ebay fees.

Is that the one that Dann Frank has?

I also would like to know.

I have possibly one of the nicest Defender Pins on the planet and it they are going for 10K too I might be selling!

This is a game I would love to have one day. I hope it went to a good home.

Hopefully the buyer will authorize you to release the sale price if the sale is completed. Id sure like to know, your game looked great.

Funny part is that you don't even realize you are the negative bullshit of the entire community. The owner of the site has been very clear that FS posts in the forum should contain a price.

Is it really that hard to set a price? Of course it is when you are looking for suckers. Bunch of amateur used car salesman shitting in this hobby and all over pinside.

Your games are crap and obviously your prices are so high you are afraid to even list them. Adding insult that you are not even willing to financially support the venue you have just utilized to make money off these shady sales.

I am guessing you are Brett Halsey, an amateur used car salesman from Gainesville GA that only comes to Pinside to use it for the purposes of selling crap in an auction format or when you are looking for used parts. Pretty good powers of deduction...

I will happily have the same discussion with you in person as I will online as the facts are pretty clear that you are currently freeloading of this site to sell your stuff for inflated prices. If you don't want discussion on your crap games or crap selling practices then post it in the market.

Hey>> you donated today! good job!

Now post some prices for your games instead of running this silent auction crap.

He's a judge and I value his opinion.
Ed gave up a BBB for these.

Brett is definitely a flipper, for better or for worse. From what I hear he has a good technician and stands behind his games, so that's in his favor. He pretty much has driven out all hopes of picking up decent priced games in the entire Atlanta area--at least on craigslist. I don't like no price listings either but I don't think pinside is where Brett sells most of his games--just a guess.
