Isn't $2100 a pretty good deal on CFTBL?

The hologram is really blue, that will be a $500 purchase.

Only if it bothers you. If I got a great deal on a creech and it was a nice playing game with a few flaws that I could live with, there is no way I'd spend 500 on an asthetic item. On 20 year old games, I'm cool with some wear. As long as I can get it playing 100%, I'm good.

Agreed 100%, if you aren't concerned with resale value go for it.
 
The hologram is a 900-1k purchase if it is the original off ebay. The repo is a 500 purchase, but it tends to go bad much much faster and is a real gamble.

2100 isn't a bad price if you want a machine and don't care about the holo though.
 
a really nice clean Creature's sold for $1400 at an auction here in Iowa this spring.

I'd never seen one before but I did notice the creature was really dark and hard to see.
I figured that was just the design.

What does it mean for a hologram to go bad?
Now I'm curious.....
 
But seriously, the original ones discolored badly to the point where you couldn't even tell what they were I believe. A number of remakes have been done but from what I gather, they are hit or miss on how long they last as well.
 
so could that be why the one at the auction only hit 1400 even though it was otherwise perfect? Seems like a crappy detail to have a part that fades fast.
Think I'd be coming up with some other mod if I owned one.

different subject, the artwork made it look like it was going to be a blast to play. but i was far from impressed. seems like the ball was constantly hard to see, and the talking got obnoxious after a few games.

just me?

I agree. It followed Addams Family and I think that is what makes some folks dislike it. It is very shallow compared to Addams. Spell FILM, get multiball, repeat. Too expensive for what you get. I like Bram Stoker's way better and much more of a value.
