why is everyone being so nice.  no one has mentioned my high priced pinballs on kijiji except some no talent emailers who like to keep a secret who they are.
   i am open to offers on my stuff.  but its not a fire sale.   thanks for no picking on it guys.  i brought it up to dave today.  he asked what with me selling everything.  i said "you mean, whats with me selling everything and the high prices".  he said "yea, that too".  just trying to save for a house.

I didnt want to say anything...but a $1000 profit on the HH....WOW!

   i am not really trying to sell everything off.  if i do, great.  i am selling for what it would take to get the machine off me.
   bk2k i thought would never go anywhere and i have had that machine for quite awhile.  miss it already.  but price was paid and it was paid happily.  i made profit?  i have no idea.  i sold it for what it would take to pry it out of my hands.  the buyer was after me for it since i first got it.  

  $1000 profit isn't that bad.  i know others that got a great deal on machines and more then doubled it when they sold.
i asked the price on maaca on haunted house pinballs and got some good replies.

  there is collectors, repair guys and others who buy non working or issue machines for cheap around or at auction for cheap then sell for alot more later.  

   shoot.  my first pin was a dr.who that i got for $350 and it was quite nice.  i sold it to a twilight zone and told him the price beforehand.  we did cash and trade.  we were both more then happy in the deal and i think i came out at least three times the amount higher then when i started.  but that started me on the pinball big time.
  put it up on kijiji at that price and on macca for $1600 and there is no issues with the machine now.  popper had a bad
  wire conected.  dave fixed it up.
  
  now $600 profit isn't even that.  when you put into the price i paid... missing a day of work.  ask dave.  my days are busy and i make between $200-700 a day.  driving on short notice and paying for a friend to come.  with over a 9hr drive.

just replace "cars" with "pinball machines" lol

It is natural to make profit on a classic pin if you have it for 3-5 years because they are wanted more and more.
