Hi All!

Anyone have an opinion on what a Dungeons & Dragons pinball machine in decent shape should go for? I have a chance to get one. Thanks!

I really can't remember if the sale prices but for some reason $750-$1000 comes to mind.  Brett picked one up in Australia a little while back.

I've seen them go quite cheep in the US and Europe (Like $300us). There is a Top sound system that goes on the top of the machine, try to get one with one of these, somethimes there is just this piece for sale as well (I've seen one for sale on ebay a while back) I bought mine for significantly more, of course... but this is mainly to do with shipping etc.. personally I'd get it!

The asking price is $500. I will check it out thoroughly; supposedly it is in good working condition. Thanks for the help, guys!

A pinball machine would go great in my garage.

If you decide to get it, maybe a pic for us?

If you get the pinball machine, make sure to check for excessive wear and tear on the table itself.  If the machine is well maintained the graphics on the table should still be clearly visible and the play actions should be in decent condition.  Have all the electronics checked to ensure they are in working order, as finding replacements may be difficult at best.  Especially important are the various solenoids that control the flippers and all the table actions (bumpers, kick-outs, and knock-down targets).
