Question
curious to know what one of these pinball machines are worth. also wondering how much a totally shopped out bally mata hari pinball is worth, everything is new right down to the decal on the playfeild. please advise
Hi James, There are so many things that go into determining the price of a game, and since I don't have much information to work with, I'll give you a ballpark estimate. Drop a card in average working condition would be $400 and Mata Hari would be $1400. Larry
