I was offered one to buy. I have never owned a pinball before, I have always had video games.
Much appreciated for the help if any.

I wouldn't pay more than $200-$250 for it myself, provided it's complete and working.. maybe a hundred bucks more if in super nice shape. $150-$200 would be a decent deal IMO.
Thank you. I put this into consideration. I thought pinball machines where much higher is value/price. Or is it just this one?
With all due respect you have a title that is not highly sought after.
There are certain titles that command more than others but it takes a title that is popular to drive the price tag. $250-$350 depending upon condition of course.
I can see you're having doubt in what you're hearing so take a gander:

In 6 years - 10 auctions and hasn't broken $400.
All depends on what site you check, maxed out at $721 on fleaby in the last 60 months...

Also, once an EM is cleaned and has basic maintenance it will run forever...
Famous last words.
I just saw a nice machine in a consignment shop that they paid a tech $200 to fix. It worked for three days before it failed to start again.
Even if you get the machine all tuned up, things can and will go wrong. If you refurbish the flippers, and the game has old drop targets, expect them to break after getting hammered a few times.
But yes, a well-tuned EM can run reliably provided it's regularly played. As soon as it sits awhile, it will begin to have problems again.
The average is mid $200's for this title.
These guides are to be used as just that - a guide.
