    Not sure I understand. 3-4 years ago I was picking Pacs of CL for $100 that were sitting. Now they are 600-800 for beaters

    Arcade game in the last 5 years are through the roof.

    Quoted from pezpunk:

    Oh yeah, without a doubt. Anyone that tells you otherwise is delusional.
    Take a look at Ms. PacMan prices 3-5 years ago.
    Then take a look at them today. Maybe 40%.
    Pinball is no different. As the people that are interested in them start dying off, the prices will bottom out to the "cool, neat weird thing to have in the house as a conversation piece" which seems to be around $500 today.
    Frankly, with about 100 exceptions, the majority of pinball prices are already hovering around that $500 mark.
