Quoted from rtotans:What's a good price for a good condition Terminator 2 pinball game?
I'd say ~2200 MAX for a mint example. I think I paid 1500 for mine and its very nice.
Wayland, MI
I will take a mint T2 for $2200 please and thank you!
$2500 would be a good price I would say.

Not so sure they go that cheap these days...
Quoted from WeirPinball:Not so sure they go that cheap these days...
I got mine for ~1500 less than 6 months ago. not quite collectors quality but very very nice. MAYBE they'll top out at 3K for HUO
Quoted from zacaj:There's people asking ~$3k all day, probably not getting quite that much but
I'd ask $3200 for mine...
And get $1600...

Here's an excellent condition asking $2500. Go git it!
Quoted from WeirPinball:Not so sure they go that cheap these days...
they don't...anymore...

The one listed is $2500/OBO, go haggle a little!!
Mines not mint but very very nice. Paid $1500 a few months back...I'd for sure take $2200 if I were selling. Absolutely.

No really looking to buy as you were not looking to sell. I will not pay $2500 but that is a good price for one. Yours is not mint so no need for any more discussion. If a mint one came up near me for that price it would be mine. I own 2 of them right now and have owned 6 in the past.
^ this guy knows his t2 prices owning 8! I've owned 2. Sold one for $2400 and the other for $2600. Both in great shape, but not perfect by any means.
Prices have been moving up on games quickly, sub $2k for t2 is very hard to find. Sales from a year ago are no longer as relevant. A T2 with little to no pf wear and fully working can go for $2400-2600, I don't think that's unreasonable for a nice game. Throw in some desirable mods and they can fetch 2800. It's a great game, one that I like better than bsd, which goes for several hundred more.

This sold for over $2500 several years ago.

When I put a WTB post out for one <1 year ago I got 4 PM's....3 were under 2K, all of them working ranging from players quality to collector. I ended up with a very nice one for ~1500.
Must be the northeast I guess. Not sure. Maybe I'm just lucky.
Edit: One of the offers was $2100.
lets see what the cat drags in...I'll gladly take a sub $2k T2.
I bought mine for $1500 5-6 years ago, and wouldnt take anything less than $2500-3k. Prices on T2 have gone WAAAY up. Nostalgia from the 90's kids, the fact that the movie is great and still holds up, and the heart pumping game play all help this title rise in price and value.
Quoted from joegeno:Poor mans ac/dc
AC/DC is just an elitist revision of an already perfect pin.
And yeah, I paid $1400 a couple years ago for a pretty decent T2. It cleaned up nicely. However, most in my neck of the woods haven't sold below $2200, so I'd say that's a pretty decent sweet spot for price. I know if I were to sell mine it'd be more like $2600.
Quoted from TheLaw:Prices on T2 have not gone waaaay up at all. The amounts of total idiots owning T2's and trying to sell them on pinside for 3k+ have skyrocketed though.
Please let me know when a $1500 T2 comes up for sale. I would love to get your pricing. It seems the Ann Arbor area has the cheapest pins around.
Quoted from Dayhuff:If I were to put mine up for sale it would take $3K.

Is that still my old one?

I wouldnt put my game on pinside for 3k as I know it wouldnt sell. Craigslist though......lololololol
Dont hate mate. People can buy and sell at the prices they want. Im sure you wouldnt sell that DH for anything less than 3-4k.
Quoted from Rock914:Is that still my old one?
Yes but with some more "enhancements" but minus the under cabinet lighting. Never did figure out how to hook that back up.

Quoted from simplykind:Players Condition ~ $1500-2000
Good Condition ~ $2000 - 2500
Excellent Condition ~ $2500-3000
This is accurate
Quoted from Chitownpinball:Dont hate mate. People can buy and sell at the prices they want. Im sure you wouldnt sell that DH for anything less than 3-4k.
Not hating at all...people with outlandishly priced T2's can TRY to sell then all they want, good luck to them 
people just forget there are TONS of T2s out there. Last year this time a good condition one sold near me for 1800.
Funny I bought my DH in 2012 for $1,100. But hey, Ann Arbor Area has some great prices.
Quoted from snyper2099:...but if you had the money wouldn't you rather buy and play a Getaway? It's a far better game for around the same $.
Or spend "half" as much and get a HS which is much better than both of these titles. 
Quoted from TheLaw:Or spend "half" as much and get a HS which is much better than both of these titles.
Are you feeling alright tonight Rob? I can't really comment I have not played HS! I prefer T2 to Getaway but to each his own.
Quoted from Rock914:Are you feeling alright tonight Rob? I can't really comment I have not played HS! I prefer T2 to Getaway but to each his own.
HS one of the best games ever made; any era. My main gripe HS2 is the took away the side ramp shot which was the best part of the game...but it's a well liked game so I don't bash it.
But to get on track here, for me T2 shows whether people know anything aboot pinball pricing, or they're just idiots. Let us all take a look at the Market right now.
4 T2s for sale. 2 are $2500 which seems to be around the wiggle area in this thread, the others are 34 & 3900 (that's not Canadian....it's 'Merican).
If any of you guys can look at these goddamn 3400+ T2s and with a straight face agree with it, than you either own a T2, are hooked on the crack, or I can't even think of a 3rd thing.
Oh wait sorry the 3400+ ones have LEDs in them...there you have it! 
I was going to ask $2600 for this one but man maybe I should ask $3900. That is crazy.
I buy and sell many pins a year. T2 is one I am always looking for. I know the prices, what I can buy them for and what they sell for. It is very hard to find one under 2k in good shape. The one for $1800 last year must have went fast, I don't know how I didn't see it. I will buy a mint one for $2200, anything higher and I just can't make money after I do what I do.
I'll have to check out HS next month at the VFW.
Quoted from joegeno:Poor mans ac/dc
Not at all. I would seriously buy a T2 before buying another AC/DC (which is long gone).

Can you "do what you do" to mine? 
Quoted from drunkbaby:Can you "do what you do" to mine?
Yes, it would be November. Drop it off to me or ship it.
For anyone looking...Excellent condition T2 thats been sitting for 4+ months...May be able to wheel and deal a bit.
Terminator 2, 1991 Williams: 2500
Cabinet and playfield are in excellent condition. Needs cleaning. No errors.

On the money. Always gonna be a fairly popular game due to the theme and art/sound/play package. They get traded around a lot but people will always want it. Nice ones get a bit of a premium as many are beat, one of the few diamondplate games where you'll see significant wear down to the wood.
