Black knight 2000 £1000

Someone got lucky here, unfortunately I don't sit and watch Ebay for occasional bargains like this! I owned this very machine for several years. It was one of the infamous bank of six at the 2012 Slam. I sold it for a similar price 8 years ago, so with Pinflation someone got a bargain.

conversation in my house...

me: "wow, look a BK2000 for 1000"

wife: "1000? You're never bringing another pinball machine into this house that doesn't bring a 2 to 1 return"

me: "it was probably bricked. So LW3 at 2.5?"

Really enjoyed playing BK2000 at Pinfest and had a hankering for one.
Obviously £1000 seems a good price but what would they usually go for?

Around 2 for whatever and 3 for nice. Obviously buying off Ebay you gotta factor in the 'I have no idea what I just bought' price factor, but 1k is still silly for 'fully working and LED'd'

Yeah, and £1000 can soon become £2000+ if all is not what it seems I guess.
Congrats to the buyer though.

Makes you wonder why the seller didn't do some research on prices, or do it as an auction to let the market decide.

If as suggested above the pin was bought for the same price a few years ago then a lot of people assume that is still its value and may even think they are pushing it asking the same.
I bought my sttng for £1200 3 years ago. The seller had bought it from hld for I think £2500 many years previous and so sold it for the price I guess you would call normal depreciation.
That was a private non internet sale and normally with eBay you’d have a quick scout before arriving at a price.
 
Echo that. 'What? Buy It Now at £1000'
Quick check at full description again, see what I was missing..
Oh well, it's gone.
Bah!

Masquerade EM project : EBay
Thats an EM monster, but also a very fun project.

Pretty ambitious price, I sold one of my nearly fully working EMs for less and the other fully working one for only £100 more. 4 player makes it a bit more desirable but it is a big gamble and that cabinet is no bueno

Haha. Thanks mate. These people walk among us unfortunately.
I need to stick an advert up on here as well. Just throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks on eBay first

Quite right. We need a pinned thread somewhere warning newbies about selling outside the forum. You get lower prices here, but lower hassle too.

Good honest eBay ad though, respect 🫡

Not tempted to AI it?? 🤣🤣
 
Yes that’s the one Mozie. It’s a great looking game even if it does have the most ****ed up backglass in the world.
