Quoted from ccbiggsoo7:woodrails are not worthless, friend just sold a highly collectible one for $2200 and another one for for $1400, depends what they are. Quite a few worth big bucks if you do the research.
I know some are highly collectible but the chances of finding a good condition wood rail that doesn’t need a shitton of work and/or missing parts is few and far between.
Most the time like the ones pictured they’re worth like $100 and in my opinion that’s basically just the “parts are worth it” price.
I say worthless as an exaggeration kinda like half the beater EMs you see on Facebook. Sure you may find the diamond in the rough but 9/10 it’s just an average game that only has value to us collectors who simply appreciate the history.
When you happen upon a GTB mermaid or something at a garage sale for $100 I’ll change my stance lol
