Prices have dipped a little bit recently (I doubt you need telling the reason for that) but you still see the super inflated prices on some more popular tables listed as “mint” or “in collectors condition”. I’d find buying one perfect machine for same price as 2 or 3 decent ones a bit hard to swallow.

This Addams Family Gold was listed on ebay and failed to sell with a starting price of £2800. That does seem a bit steep for a starting price, especially when there is a regular Addams Family machine which has been heavily worked on, currently sat at half that with 7 hours to go, at the time of writing.

The owner of the Addams Family Gold machine mentioned above is also listing his Back to the Future machine which is currently at £550 with one bid. This is high up on my shortlist of 1st machines to buy so I will be watching this one closely. I’ll avoid saying anything about it requiring a 1.21 Gigawatt power supply.

This Seller may be worth watching, not for the Fish pond paint however. His listings of Terminator 2 and Lord of the Rings mention that 50 or so machines are going to be listed soon. The list of tables can be seen in the auction descriptions.

I am hoping to compile a good list of places to source Pinball Machines and Parts, so if you have any suggestions, I would be grateful to hear them. Ebay is great, but nothing beats a reputable dealer when you are potentially going to be spending alot of money. Ebay seems a bit thin on solid state machines too.
