If they are starburst inserts, which it looks so, that is a CPR reproduction playfield. I put one in mine a while back, looks great and plays fast. It was a ton of work to swap the double playfields, but well worth it. Good luck with the trade, it's well worth what you are asking.
Wish I was ready. BK is on my wish list. Just bought a Firepower PF from Kruzman. Can't wait to start the restore on that. When I'm done there I will be looking for a BK to go with it. Good luck. That machine looks great.
Can you PM your asking price? My wife has a friend that's been looking for a nice example. I'd like to pass this over to him to see if he is still looking. He's not a pinball collector so is not on the site. he's just looking for a pinball machine for his family and wants the one he played when he was a kid.
The playfield swap on BK is a total bitch! I'd put the value of that labor alone at $800. Add $700 for the CPR playfield, $1200 (min) for an average BK, $100 for plastics...that's $2800 right there. Someone is getting a hell of a deal at $2000.
I think the price is good too. Just wish I was closer and ready to buy. Maybe I missed something, I know you mentioned that Kruzman did the clear, but is this an original playfield or a cpr?
Quoted from shovelhed:I think my price is fair. I would like it gone so I could get the kids something to there liking.
For the kids... LOL!! Good one
Did you get the new plastics set from CPR as well? Wondering if you have the old ones laying around. I am looking for the sword plastic that is at the bottom of the upper playfield.
Good luck with your sale.

Sorry no old plastics, and yes they both love Ac/Dc!
Quoted from shovelhed:Sorry no old plastics
Thanks for getting back, heres a free bump to the top.
I hear ya, that was my first thought and BK with a nice PF is on my want list. NAVL would be 500.00 each way based on my last price estimate from them. When is that transporter device gonna be ready?
That is a pretty BK! Wish I had cash right now, I'd be on it. Would seriously love a Black Night. Kids like a Pinbot maybe?
Quoted from swampfire:I'm shocked that this is still available.
This +1.
A gorgeous pin with a new clearcoated playfield, new backglass, and in California at a GREAT price??!!
I don't get why this is still available
to the OP, I am sorry you are have such a time of it. Do you have it advertised anywhere else? RGP might be a good option as well, as is Mr. Pinball Classifieds.
Best of luck. If I did not already have a Black Knight, I would have bought this nad gotten it shipped.

Let's see...4336 mile / 64 hour round trip. $0 spending money. Crap. Guess I'm out.
Seriously...$1800 for this is a steal. REALLY wish I had the means right now...I miss my BK tons and they don't get much better than this. Sure hope one pops up around here someday when things are a little less tight.
Best of luck with the sale...really surprised this isn't long gone. More proof that Pinside is a little too DMD heavy for its own good...
I think he has the dissadvantage that there have been a crop of BK's for sale in the bay area lately. I just got one a week and a half ago for about 900$ (keep in mind, not clearcoated or that nice, but still nice for the price I got.) Different tim eof year when you have not seen one for months and it would be gone. Good luck though, I am sure it will sell.

Quoted from swampfire:I'm shocked that this is still available.
I haven't seen a BK for sale around here for more than a year I bet. I want one so bad....someday, my dream will come true.
Quoted from shovelhed:Sale pending!
Oh good, thought I'd have to sell something I didn't want to and drive down there and get it, now the pressure is off.
I was starting to formulate a plan too. Trying to put together the bucket brigade of people I know between Napa CA and Oakland NE
Good Luck!
