Pending.. Bond 60th LE..

In defence of Marcel, I think we agree his humour in the 2nd post missed the mark and left many of us confused if the machine was NIB, or faulty requiring repair.
But it is a hard game to gauge price on, have any even changed hands over here?
The pool of people looking to buy such an expensive game will be small and the sale price will be based on what people offer him for it, regardless of the asking price.
Its 25% cheaper than distributors and open to offers, if he was selling a US NIB Bond Pro for 6k, I'm sure people would be just fine with it.

but it's US version not a UK version.
Why pay 19k when you could air freight yourself one over from the US yourself?
He did say it would be converted to UK 60hz prior to sale, but take your point.
Well the short answer is I don't have that sort of money. But the hassle, risk etc would put me off too, are they really selling for $12K in the US.... used ones maybe, but you would have to find a seller willing to sort out freight, which isn't easy.
The only two NIB's for sale on Pinside are $16k ish, with VAT and shipping, currency conversion charges etc on top.

Its strange. We could do with a thread where we ask how much things might be worth..... oh wait a moment.....
Well, one things for sure.
This place definitely sucks for selling pins.

How do you work that out?
I've bought every single reasonably priced pin (that i don't have) listed for sale on this forum, within minutes.
Where else can you sell something so quick?
It works fine for the majority that straightforwardly list a game with a clear description , photos and price.
Start ****ing around being clever/ funny/ awkward and it invariably heads south fast.
100%
I just sold 3 on the trot, but then maybe I was doing it wrong.
Happy you had a great outcome, that’s how it should be.
I’m sure many will disagree having seen their For Sale posts go down the toilet due to peeps becoming triggered in some way or another.
Yes there are rules but guys……relax. Was I the only one that seen the humour in the OPs description?

The difference is only a few bytes in a flash chip... And a sticker!

A US version actually has more in it, a power take off service point and another mech on the coin door, technically costs more in parts than an EU spec. Otherwise nothing different apart from the fuse.
Edit, forgot to mention the Electrocoin embargo tax

Ok - happy to accept constructive thoughts - how would you have it??
(Serious question!)
No problem at all with official admin moderation. Member posts on For Sale threads suspected as being deliberate derail in nature. Perhaps need to be kept in check.

And this **** is exactly why I don’t come on here much anymore
You know you can pick and choose which threads to read or give a **** about ? Same as every single forum on the web .

Yep
I can't figure out if this is or isn't for sale, how much it is, whether its in a box or damaged, if I'm paying In euros or rupees, if it'll work in the UK etc.
What a total waste of time.

These things are like buses, it's the third one I've seen listed this week!

Is this still for sale?
Was it ever for sale?
Or build one from scratch!At this point it would be easier and less confusing, plus a **** load cheaper to bring one over from the states
It can be converted using either a new main board (Node 0) which is not cheap.
But @myPinballs can probably do something about this

You we're never in, I feel no FOMO from your feeble attempt to make me feel as if I might have potentially missed a customer.
