Just wanted to get some thoughts on a Pinbot machine I have never owned a real pinball machine but while looking for some empty cabs I found this person that has a Pinbot machine in great condition and they said I could have it for $700... Is that a good machine and price? I enjoy the vp version but have never played the real one..

Great condition for $700?

 

Jump on it!

 

We're currently seeing a sellers' market trend in pinball, and all pricing is rising. $700 for any machine in great condition is a good buy right now, and I believe it will only appreciate for some time ahead.

 

It's a pinball resurgence, and it's great to see!

Good game from a great era (system 11), & if it really is in great shape for $700 in this market, you GET IT!  Even if you hate it you sell it & make $500 profit.

Like rob said i guess if i get tired of it i could prob make a profit to help get me a STNG table but I have yet to see one around here for sale.. I will post some pics.. also I got to play a few tables today Flip Flop not bad for an old table.. Star Wars was ok and CFTBL was pretty awsome..
