Don't know, how to insert an e-Bay link, but item number is:

160124798132

Any bets, how high it will end?

Actually - It met reserve at $9500.00. At least we'll all have a value for the insurance company when it's all over.

We actually had a Poll on this...here's the link

http://www.robertwinter.com/pinball/bbb/forum/viewtopic.php?t=249

I felt it would be $12,500. It's currently over $10,000 with 5+ days left.

Here's the EBay link to BBB #75

I really hope it goes sky high.

I mean, what better proof that the machine is of absolute incredible quality?

I'll never sell mine, of course...but it's nice to see.

Funny - I forgot that I started that poll - hehe. I'd guess it will go for $12K - It's definatly stalled until the end of the auction. As you know, they usually run like that.

Okay,

Here is a what if,

What if I had to sell my machine in the next 6 - 8 months

It is the first machine built it has a history that goes with it.
First machine to light up, first machines to speak, first machine to smoke:>)

Powder coated legs side rails ... to match the green wire ramp.

Signatures of so many bbb owners that I have been collecting since I first started meeting all of you.

If there came a time when I chose to sell my machine does anyone have any idea what would it be worth?

Before anyone comes up with ... I am not trying to sell it to make a profit, this is all what if!

Unexpected, but understood question. I'd say $25-$30K??? It's the original prototype for the PMI run and there's only one. There are rich guys who will buy it.

Kim..My guess would be from $2,500 to as high as $5,000 more than what #75 sells for on Ebay.

Always hard to put a price on stuff like this. You *never* really know until you try to sell it. As we know, all it takes is ONE person willing to pay that price.

I'd guess $15-$20K. Possibly more with the right buyer.

Kim... my guess is over 20k.

Oh, and Max did get the first shot once we had her all set and played the first game.

Actually that is still rather cheap if you know the first BBB sold in Europe did over $16,500
