Working or broken. Missing parts or full restoration. Sitting in a basement for 30 years. If it’s a pinball machine, we want to look at it.
Most sellers undersell us before they even call. They look at their machine, decide it's too rough or too far gone, and assume nobody would want it. They are almost always wrong.
From museum-quality to project-only, every condition has a place on this spectrum. Every condition has value. Find roughly where yours falls.
Fully restored, original or NOS parts, perfect playfield, gallery-ready cabinet. Top of the market.
Clean, working perfectly, light cabinet wear, original art intact, professionally maintained.
Plays well, normal wear, scuffs and scratches expected for age, all features functional.
Doesn't play right, has issues, may be partially working. Needs repair to be enjoyed.
Heavily damaged, missing parts, dead electronics. Still has value for parts and restoration.
We buy machines from every grade on this spectrum. The grade affects what we can offer, but it never disqualifies your machine from a sale.
These are real types of machines we buy regularly. If your situation looks like any of these, pick up the phone.
Sitting downstairs untouched since the 80s. Dusty cabinet, possibly powering on but glitchy, original artwork faded. Classic pinball gold. We see these constantly.
We BuyDoesn't power on at all. Maybe blew a fuse. Maybe the power supply is shot. Maybe nobody knows. Doesn't matter, we still want it.
We BuyBroken playfield glass, missing flippers, damaged backbox. Even the most picked-over machine has resale value to someone who restores. That someone is us.
We BuyBasement flooded. Roof leaked. Pipe burst above the game room. We have brought back machines with water damage that other buyers walked away from.
We BuyIt belonged to a parent. A spouse. An ex. It came with the house. Nobody plays it. Nobody knows what it is. We can identify it from photos and quote it the same day.
We BuyPrevious owner swapped out original parts. Repainted the cabinet. Rewired the electronics. Modifications change the value but rarely kill it. Show us what you have.
We BuyThe number one reason people do not call us is they assume their machine is too rough to be worth anything. Here's how that thinking lines up against reality.
Most resellers refuse non-working or rough machines because they don't have the means to fix them. They want plug-and-play games they can flip in a weekend. We are not that.
Every machine we buy goes through our workshop. We have spare parts inventories, soldering stations, replacement boards, and the experience to diagnose problems other shops miss. That's why we can pay real money for machines other buyers would pass on. See our repair and restoration services for the technical side of what we do.
