saw a American pickers episode wed nite.
they were at a place owned by 2 sisters that the dad and family were in coin op for like 60 yrs, anyway, they saw a minty, but non working pong, making a long story short, they purch. it, non working with a horiz line across screen, for 1450
is it just me, or did they overpay?
I had one in almost same cond, and it took me like 6 months to get 700 for it, ..

on the other hand I would think they are not going to sell it as is like I did, so if they are able to get it all repaired for say 350 - 550 or so, then they be in it 2k or a bit under,
and maybe they can get 2500 to 3k? at the shop? do they really sell for that even in retail shop?
 
Yah its already been discussed

I can tell you I have been offered over 2k for my restored 100% working one more then once so its not out of the question.

Its not like they pop up for sale all the time (especially not all jacked up) so if someone wants one they will pay.
