$6500 seems pretty high for a CV...

In fact, I've never seen any go for more than 5K...

May be a bit pricey but then again it isn't like they come up often FS up here and bringing one up from the states never costs you in the end what the guy in the states is selling it for once you get it here.

Well well well... if it isn't our buddy RS... well... I will let you figure it out.

I guess he graduated from 5000$ Playboys to 6500$ CVs. Pattern seems to always be the same. A 3000$ mark-up.


Retiring soon...

Hello All, I'm pretty new on Maaca but not on pinball collecting. So I'd like to drop my two cents if you don't mind. CV is a great game, no doubt about it. It's a game I qualify of "near perfect balance" which is pretty rare in the pinball world. By "balance" I mean that gameplay, feedback and art make a coherent, extremely entertaining whole.  But it's way too much asking even if it's a rare occurence on the market. 2010 price guide quote it at 4 475$. Well that's a pretty precise estimate , but we all agree that the price guide does not reflect real market value,especially in Quebec / Canada. Still, I'm ready to put a few extra hundred bucks on a pinball than what the price guide may say, but 2000$ more is just ...well I'll keep my real thought to myself on that.

My point is...and that's the real reason of my post: Why do (some) peoples keep on trying to make money out of pinball. Pinball industries is not what it used to be and should be considered as is: A great fun hobby to where you are lucky to not loose money while enjoying it (when you actually manage to buy responsibly ). Pinballs do get value through the years but some people seems to think that they may actually make a living out of it; based on the time, add ons, restoration they may have put on a machine.

Finally, my answer to Powerslave: I would never pay more than 5000$ on a CV, and it's condition should be pretty awesome. Still, for this price I could get 2 pinball machines, which combined, would beat the CV gameplay

But you would still have two of something else and not one of CV if that is the title you want to own.

I'm down to really deciding when not if I will buy a CC. Sure I could buy a lot of other games for that money but if I want a CC what's the point in having the other games that I don't really really want?
