Description (revised) Seller assumes all responsibility for listing this item.
Williams 1977 Hot Tip Pinball Machine. It's been in our family for ever but my Aunt wants to sell it now as it's not functionning and we dont know how (or where) to fix it. Probably an electrical issue that can be fixed rapidly. It's just taking up space in my basement now. Working, they sell for around $4500.00.

It's just taking up space in my basement now. I was told by a company in the US that they are worth at least $800 if not functionning but working, they sell for around $4500.00. So my Aunt advised me that she will not sell it for under that (minimum).
well got news for them. its going to sell for less then that.
Yeah well I can see this turning ugly.. The chick's never sold anything on Ebay. She doesn't realize that it's a binding contract. If she says :"NO I won't sell".. What are you going to do??? You'll complain to Ebay and her account will get cancelled but that's no loss to her with a feedback of ZERO.

The right thing to do is send an email and let her know. I have done that with a few folks that state in their list "I won't let this go for less than....", but have no reserve. Seems the proper thing to do rather than let's force the person to sell, because they didn't know the rules.

That would indeed be the noble thing to do, but from I've heard of this seller, she's seems like an unweilding greedy little (insert word of your choice here), who thinks she's sitting on a Gold mine.
It would be worth letting this duke itself out just for the entertainment value !
i have emailed them more then once. they asured me that it was going to go for over 4k. i told them that its not worth 1k even if it was working. around 500-800 mark at the most working. i got told to more or less "piss off". especially when i mentioned about the picture being stolen from the internet and not their pic. they didnt' seem to care.
I think I'll let them know that their pic has been stolen.
And if that's where they're getting their pricing information from, I could understand why they think that the machine is worth a bundle. Don't tell the seller that pinrescue sells fully restored/collector quality items at retail prices. They just wouldn't understand.
