Yes DataEast. Wasn't sure what I was thinking there. And I am the one that bought it from you. Underrated pin.
That Rocky and Bullwinkle looks great. I bet my eight-year-old son would love it. I don't mind going a little over budget for a good deal, but from what I have researched, $2,600 seems a bit overpriced for a "as is" R&B. If it were nice and clean, with polished playfield and plastics, maybe. From what I can see by the pictures, it needs a little love.
What do you think? Does it seem like a good deal to you?
Cheers!

I'm a horrible guy to ask about a deal. I usually need to refer to the two price guides that I know of online:
Pinside.com says the average price range for R&B is between $1850 and $2150 USD. https://pinside.com/pinball/archive/adventures-of-rocky-and-bullwinkle-and-friends
Bostonpinball.biz only has one entry this year (based on eBay sales) for $4500 USD (must have been a hell of a game!). http://bostonpinball.biz/ebay0516.htm
Really its a matter of what you're prepared to spend. Is it a must have title that doesn't come along very often, or are you prepared to wait for the right deal? Patience often pays off.
There are others here that have a much better handle on value who will likely chime in.
Not sure that helps.

In the Pinside archives, there's an old for sale ad from February 2016 in Montreal for $1850 USD
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/archive/30569
Says it was not sold, so I suppose you could check to see if its still available?

I tried contacting the seller, but no answer yet. It's probably long gone. I'm a patient man and I'm prepared to wait for the right deal. I just want to make sure I'm looking in the right direction. It doesn't make sense to stay on the lookout for an Addams Family ir a Scared Stiff if I'm on a $2,000 budget (thats' probably what I'll have left once I get a Williams Taxi). I just want a fun second machine with some nice ramps and rails so I can have a little diversity. Anyway, thanks for the tip.
Cheers!

I think that High Speed is gone. The link doesn't seem to exist anymore. Thanks for letting me know though.

Gladiators looks pretty cool. Some nice ramps, rails and even a DMD. How much are you asking for it?
The rest are a little too old school for my taste.
If anything else from the late 80's or 90's goes for sale, please let me know.
Cheers!
I think I saw in another thread that he was asking $1960 for it, and it comes shopped for that price. (unless my memory is fading, which is completely possible!)

Grand Lizard sold. Back to Ottawa to a good friend, but housed not far from Bluffs in TO.
That leaves me with only one GL, so I am keeping and restoring her.
