TIP Guidance on fair price for parts...

[snoopDoug]

Hi. After searching in vain for a non-working machine (with a solid cab, all the metal parts, glass, etc) for my virtual pinmame project, I ended up getting a fully working 1970 Bally Gallahad that was missing the original back glass (for a good price that was in my budget for buying/building a cab). Now I'm looking to sell as many of the internal components as possible, but I don't really know what they are worth or how to best go about it. I've seen individual components for sale on Ebay like this:

but I have no idea whether parts like this will actually sell this way. What do you guys think would be the best way to go about it?

Thanks,

Doug

Not sure on market value but EM's aren't big ticket items.

Thanks for the link. I know I'm not going to get much for these parts, and this machine in particular is not really in demand. I'm now leaning toward keeping the various "higher-value" assemblies intact (pop bumpers, score reels, etc) and just putting them on eBay, hoping that someone will be looking to restore this machine in the future.
