There's a fair amount of wear on that playfield. I'm not the best gauge of price, but I'd say less than $2,000.

Maybe $11-1200? ...that playfield is not great...not the worst by any means, but I wouldn't be ready to slap down too much.

Keep in mind I see this title come up a lot in California and in this condition it would go for $900-$1200. The playfield is so so, but the cabinet is decent. I would want to make sure the boards are in good condition and don't have any battery damage or any wiring hacks.

high production game
typical wear on PF
decent cab
$900

If you've never played a High Speed, you need to get out more.

I just sold my HS with some pf wear. That hs is worth less than $1k.

High speed is a fun machine. 9 out of 10 of us would say make the trade. Lots of pinball enthusiasts here.

Drink our kool aid.

ummmm you have to like sys 11's or 80's games to enjoy it. The game is okay, but not my personal cup of tea.

It's a fun game under 1k for sure. 3 I've been watching on ebay went from 600-800 little more wear though on those

<biased>I am prolly wrong person to ask (notice my profile pic) but I think it's a fantastic flow game. It was my first and I will never not own one. Having said that, it doesn't have a deep rule set (typical for it's era) but I love the music, the call outs, the lights, and the graphics. I don't think there is a single better pin under $1K.</biased>

One of the best machines ever made. NEVER gets old to me.

The machine is a decent one. It is my first and only pin to date. Mine is is better shape than that one as far as PF and I paid way less than 2k. (In August)

The pin does get a little old as a single pin. There are not a ton of shots and it is not a deep game. But it is fun and fast. A lot depends on what you value your arcade machine at.

I probably wouldn't.

I love galaga/ms pac. HSs are a dime a dozen. Always for sale.

Unless you're dead tired of the gal/pac, then don't trade.

pinball.. you're doing it wrong.

That condition, that game, you're looking at $800-900

I agree. Game is sub 1K in that condition. I have owned 3 HS's over the years.

High Speed is a VERY fun game!

but yeah the estimates in the $950 range are accurate, considering the playfield wear.

I would value a HUO or new reunion at 1500+. A good friend of mine sold one with 10 plays on it for 2000 a few years ago. They are harder to find than you think. OP's routed the hell out of those things and they are hard to find in HUO condition.

I just gave $1200 for my High Speed in very similar condition to the machine you are looking at. Most High Speeds have compleatly blown out playfields. I love this game. Fell in love when it first came out. I never get tired of shooting the freeway loop. Great light show also IMO. I think it stands the test of time. Of course, I'm a huge Steve Ritchie fan! I say make the trade.

You are answering your own question. If you are going to miss it so much then you should probably just keep it right.

I love Galaga/Ms. Pac Man too but Pinball trumps arcade games every time to me. They are probably in a similar range on price. Both sell well due to the high following. tough call

I think you'd be losing out on straight monetary value. On the other hand, though that particular High Speed is kinda ugly, it would be worth the trade on fun factor IF it plays really well. I've played many that look like that and just suck.

High Speed is one of the Fundamentals in pinball. Like a Kung Fu Form!
