Question

thanks
Candi

Answer
Candi,
My price guide lists the value at $450-950 depending upon condition.  If it is in great shape including the back glass, cabinet and play field you could expect the top end of the range.  If it isn't working and/or is worn, the value would be in the lower end of the range.  Keep in mind that shipping a pinball machine is expensive and that plays a factor into the ability to sell a pinball machine for retail price.
Good Luck,
Chad

I'm an expert on coin operated machines.

I have a couple hundred machines in my collection and have seen hundreds of others while traveling across the country and going to antique shows. I can give an appraisal on your item, but please send a picture if possible so I can give you accurate information. You can send pictures to me at buck@nvc.net
