Sold Big Lebowski Loaded Edition - Trade or Sale - £10250 OBO

[Marvello]

Up for sale or trade is my Big Lebowski - £10250

If you haven't seen one in the flesh it's a stunning Pin, built like a tank.

Purchased from Pinball Heaven in October 2023 and never moved since.

This is the Loaded Edition so comes with:

Non-reflective glass
Starry lit apron
Mirror blades

I've added the metal rail protector, Col's plastic protectors™ (slings & ball guides), and target (+ other) decals.

Also includes the rug which the Pin has always been sat on so don't expect it to be immaculate, but it's still in good condition.

Has the real music mod added on a separate hard drive, the original hard drive is also included.

141 plays, this will go up a few plays a week until it's sold.

Immaculate condition, everything works as it should.

Any questions or more pictures just let me know.

Mate, Lebowski might just be the most complete and well built pinball machine ever made. I absolutely love mine.

However, I can't believe that you artexed the lockbar and installed a smoke alarm on it.

Ha ha, you can never be too careful nowadays.

 

[Marvello]

Price reduced - £10499.

 

[Marvello]

My preference is still for a straight sale, but open to trades if it means getting a deal done.

Off the top of my head trades I'm interested in are:

Big screen Sterns (Jaws is at the top of that list)
Simpson's Pinball Party
Sopranos maybe

 

[Marvello]

Had a couple of tempting trade offers but we couldn't quite agree on the money my way.

Price reduced to £10250.

 

[Marvello]

So close to trading this afternoon... but the other person damaged the cabinet/decals of his Pin getting it to his vehicle so we had to abandon the deal, doh!

 

[Marvello]

Still available for sale or trade. The screen animation was not deliberately timed .

 

[Marvello]

Since showing our backsides is the hot topic today, here's mine, pristine I think you'll agree.

Still looking for trade or sale.

Still looking for a trade, or open to cash offers.

Including but not limited to:

Big screen Stern's
Simpsons Pinball Party
Sopranos

I'd love a Ghostbusters if anyone has one to trade?

 

[Marvello]

Had a message about a potential Ghostbusters Premium trade so waiting to hear back on that, but I'll add Tron to the list of Pins I'm interested in.

Don’t do Tron or GB dude super strong rumours that Tron and Gb to be coming out soon just like Metallica remastered , tron makes super sense as well as ties in with the new movie.
If I had space and cash would love a TBL back just an absolute epic game and I miss mine loads.

Thanks for the advice but I'll take my chances as I'm out of NIB, and it could be years before they are either released, or hit the 2nd hand market.

There's a thread on here from 2022 saying strong rumours a new Tron was coming out in 2023, yet here we are at the end of 2024.

Exactly. Although Tron is likely it’s anyone’s guess when. There are no strong rumours of a GB remake. It’s just one that's been said that people want. Again, they’ve been saying it for years. However there are tons and tons of issues with redoing that again. Not least of all the designer issue. If you get an offer for one now take it.

 

[Will2.0]

I bet my blues brothers that tron will be the next remastered
And GB that’s one of the most molested licenses ever , they would license ladies feminine products if there was a buck to be made.
The fact that the designer was a little bit Saville wouldn’t stop the money machine that’s stern , you seen the new facility??
Anyways I was assuming the Op was looking to reduce his cash that he has in pins , my advice was to not get one that’s gonna be remastered .
Just my thoughts and ultimately I don’t care
I say keep the Lebowski

 

[Marvello]

I don't doubt Tron remastered is coming, it would make sense after the success of Metallica. The only debate for me is what the value of a Tron is now and in future with a remaster likely. Paying £4000+ vs £11000 for a remastered means I'd be happy with the original.

I'm not a mega Tron or Ghostbusters fan, just looks like a couple of Pins I'd be happy to trade for, or even buy outright.

It could be a good opportunity for someone to move them on now before a remastered is announced.

Both are fun games, If you pick up a Ghostbusters there a mod or two that fixes the ball drain issues that's a must, it's literally a game changer also fiddle with the settings it's not a game that's good out of the box factory eat my £1 coin settings.
I suspect Tron would be next due to Disney aligning with the new Tron movie, free marketing, but who knows!
Ghostbusters would be easier to re license, they will licence absolutely anything.
Good luck if I still had my Ghostbusters I would have been interested I really like laboski

Like buses I had 3 enquires today within the space of an hour. Had a tempting nice Tron trade offer, a Ghostbusters Premium trade enquiry and a cash offer. I've gone with the cash offer which includes collection, and someone I've sold to previously.

Small deposit received and being collected in a couple of weeks, I'll update once complete.

It has opened my eyes up to Tron, a game I've not paid too much attention to in the past. I may just wait for Pulp Fiction, but a Pinball sized hole and cash in my pocket might be too tempting. I want to take advantage of the buyer's market instead of being on the receiving end.

 

[JAG555]

You have done well, just take a look at the sea of red in the For Sale forum!

I am not sure most sellers got the memo about it being a ‘buyer’s market’

It's killed NIB for me, this has been an expensive experience. I knew I'd lose some money, but lost probably twice what I envisioned when I bought it. That's on me though, partly for not keeping it for longer.

The difference nowadays between used and new just isn't sustainable for most people.

Agree with you. NIB is crazy, but unfortunately if no one buys NIB we don’t get any into the country to fuel the second hand market. The ever tumbling GnR prices are incredible. NIBs these days have to be keepers or at least last you a long long long time.

 

[Marvello]

The Dude has left the building. I'm Pinless until Pulp Fiction turns up. Will I avoid the temptation of getting another Pin?

Nope, lasted 9 days.
