I noticed the price has dropped to £1,700.

My favourite line in the advert:

PINBALLS ARE BECOMING HARDER TO GET HOLD OF SO GRAB YOURS TODAY.​

Err... what? Seems to me we're entering a new golden era of pinball with Stern pumping out more than ever, including remakes and building for others (MM for Chicago Gaming Co.), a quality contender in the shape of Jersey Jack, UK home-grown produce from Heighway and a slew of one-offs like Skit B's Predator, Dutch Pinball's The Big Lebowski, Vonnie D's Gremlin, etc., even a video game pin becoming a reality in the shape of Pro Pinball's Timeshock.
 
Heres a good one.

Same seller as the MM, Addams and SS. Yet has the following on the description:

Note: I went to take the pics and the flippers aren't working. Must be something simple but better someone who knows what they are doing looks at it. So, sold with unworking flippers.

You're selling these highly sought after tables yet don't know how to fix a pair flippers? :rofl:

And buy it now price of £5k, oh dear!

And unless I'm mistaken he's located on the Isle Of Wight, so an extra £100+ for the ferry to get it/them to the mainland. Double-ouch!

£1200 buy it now - this looks to be the same Time Fantasy (it has the same price card and a torn sticker in exactly the same place on the apron) as the auction back in June that ended at £645.

That was sold as not working and it is now working and has been cleaned up nicely, but double the price seems a bit steep?

And yes I was outbid on the original auction. :( I'm not bitter though.... ;)

Does seem a bit steep. I suspect most folks would expect something like £800-1000, but looking closely it's got a repro playfield (that could have been £700 once imported from the US) and lots of other stuff like plastics, bumper caps, full LEDs, lamp holders, yada, yada, yada... someone put a lot of love into it at some point and now their hoping to get a return on their time investment!

For that price I'd expect a less bubbly backglass though!

I'd expect a robo-blowjob thrown in for that price.

Let me assure you that the owner has bought most of his pins from the best suppliers and knows zero about maintaining them and has no interest in doing so. I used to maintain his pins when I lived on the isle of wight and the pins have had very light use since being obtained. However I haven't serviced or seen them for about 2 years.

A day return to the island is about £45.

I suspect whoever bought the MM got a good deal after all then.

I played this very same machine a couple of weeks ago...excellent condition as are all of Dan's machines.
 
Ahh Dan, now you'll never know........


OK, he's trying to low ball by suggesting legally he can't sell without a PAT test etc but he might just be willing to take it anyway if the price is low enough.... It's like the ones you see with someone offering a cash price of 50% less than the going rate because they can "collect today"
