Talking to a guy this morning regarding his Phantom that's sitting in his family room not getting used. He may be ready to sell it so I offer him $1200.00. A friend of mine said the machine is in good shape, needs flippers rebuilt, some bulbs and rubber all around. No big deal, but some added cost on my part......
He says that the offer does not thrill him too much he paid over $2000.00 from a retailer 10 years ago for the machine and he sees them on Ebay for over $2000.00. He is willing to sell since it's not played any longer and just sits, but he wants to get the value from the machine (quote - "for 1200 I'll probably just let it sit there")
Realizing that you can ask anything for anything, where can I point him to see a more realistic view of this pins value?
The phantom has been eluding me too long.......they're starting to appear (there's one on ebay now for $1000, but it's rough, really rough......).
Links would be helpful so I can forward to him so he knows I'm not making it up
