That TAF looks like it's had a long and hard life in the pics tbh. The insert damage highlighted before, plus planking on the playfield in the same pic, lots of cab damage, etc. I'd guess other stuff that's not visible in the photos. 'Buyer-beware' I guess would be my advice.
I have rebuilt worse

Reactions: JT.

Just some info on the wildly overpriced Tommy on eBay.
Out of interest I messaged seller. Got a genuine sounding reply - the game does power on and plays but kicking out 2 balls ...so an easy fix there. It does have the all important blinders.

Poor listing and photos. Cab actually looks pretty decent with reds unfaded, couple corner dings to backbox. Lockdown bar nice. Playfield looks ok , nothing jumps out as missing (apart from a flipper rubber :D) but hard to tell from lousy photos.
Missing topper (common) , and has chrome legs not factory black.

I was going to message him and say “my old man was in The Detours (Rogers band) and I’m a QPR supporter (see other listings) how about £3500? My dad will come and collect with me and give you an autograph”😂

Would love one but not at that price🤕
 
Tommy is top of my pre-approved with the other half list of pins, but I'm holding out for one that's been re-decaled with the band/UJ imagery not the horrific broadway yellow 🤮

You might wait a while, most people redecalling them do so with keeper status in mind - prob better to get a regular one and have the work done.

Very true, although people maybe aware of how much I paid for the fella in my avatar... so who knows what might happen 😇
 
The 4K RollerCoaster is back but half price at 2k now, he’s getting closer to its value at least lol

Heart stopped for a minute then because I thought you meant Stern RCT! I know people hate it but it's a guilty pleasure of mine.
 
Tried to contact the spy hunter seller but he’s probably inundated with messages. He’s still not read my message yet but the pinball drums say Craig Pullen has nabbed it. Don’t you be darkening my league meets any more CP 😂😂😂😂
Bargain and another pin saved

🤣🤣🤣 I appreciated your hospitality Moose, you certainly know how to run a league meet up there. Yep, luckily saw the advert after 5 minutes, so hopefully he will honour the deal, but as you say Moose he has probably been inundated with messages. We shall see, he said he will call me today to sort collection 👍
 
Thats pinflation for you😂
With so many people after pins it must have filled his inbox and he then looked into it.
Still not bad though, a lot cheaper than a TAF🥸
 
Yeah I'm not interested in getting involved in a bidding war after he had agreed to sell it to me and I had sorted collection. Even if the price is still ok.
Shame on him!!!
Also, I had this last year when I got lucky. People were trying to gazump me and I had to go and collect straight away near Brighton 300 miles away when I was unwell☹️
Guy was a gent and honoured the sale when he could have easily doubled/trebled the money.

That spy hunter is up for spares/repairs and I thought I saw one a while ago in Scotland which needed repair but the boards/whatever was needed to repair it was unobtainable. Not sure if it’s the same one, maybe dodged a bullet.

Did anyone here get the nice looking/fully working Corvette in Cardiff for 2k? Listed fb Saturday evening & collected Sunday morning. Last one sold on eBay a few years ago around the 3k. 2k is a steal.
 
Stingray anyone ?

I see a flash and a lightning in the background too (flash is in another listing - Lightning isnt)
