price check and thoughts on a laser war data east pinball machine

my friend friend has one for sale not working all the way so im thinking of buying it.if its kinda cool and if what he asking is fair price.well thanks for your inputs
 
DE's first pin, and one I still enjoy playing. Have a friend who picked his up fully working a few years back for $700, with only a few minor issues.

All comes down to cosmetics, and what they mean by "not working all the way" - get details on *what* is not working, verify the condition of the playfield, and especially the ramp - they are frequently broken, with no replacements readily available - be prepared to have to repair it yourself if you can't hunt down a good one.

If the game is booting and it's minor stuff (IE some lights not working, weak coils, etc.), and it's in good cosmetic condition, look at a similar price range. Start with less (IE $400 or $500 perhaps) and work your way up, depending upon condition. Post pic's and details on what's wrong with it, and you'll get a better estimate. Verify all the displays are working as well - at that age, it's not uncommon to have one or more that are outgassed/dead.
