NIB Medieval Madness

<< < (2/3) > >>

Pinball Wizard:
What idiot had $15,550 laying around to spend on a single machine? Maybe they should adopt me and buy me things. In all seriousness unless I'm light 100s on fire I'm not spending that much on any machine even if it was the greatest game in the entire world. I like the game but not that much to blow money on it.

lilshawn:
mee too!

it hasn't been re-listed yet, so maybe he's just trying to get an idea of what it will go for to sell it privately. the reserve was probably 999 kajillion dollars or something stupid.

Jeff AMN:
Items that sell that high never end on eBay. Nobody wants to pay that kind of cut to eBay/Paypal, so they'll contact the highest bidder and they'll arrange the sale privately. Many pinball machines are sold this way "through" eBay.

Mimatt:
If I ever paid over $5000 for a NIB pin, I'd probably leave it in the box for about 10 more years, then sell it.

 :soapbox:
I don't care how rare MM is, no modern NIB pin is ever worth more than the price it was new, IMO. Give it another 15 years in that box, then we'll talk...

LLUncoolJ:
I talked to Chuck at CP's in STL saturday. His MM wasn't there and I was bummed, that was the first one I wanted to play. He told me he was swapping cabinets with a friend that had sold his MM for $13K. I was a little tipsy, but I think Chuck had a nicer cabinet and obviously the machine had to be tip top for that money. I could be wrong on that last part, but if my fuzzy memory serve, that was the reason.
