4_amusement_only Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Each to their own. If it is a truely H.U.O example then personally with the condition it is in I would spend the extra cash. Looks quite the example and by the look of the orginal plastic bag the manual etc was contained in from factory, it could well be a H.U.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

felixthadog Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I'm confused, what is wrong with the auction? :confused: The machine looks awesome, is it only the price that is causing grief? :unsure Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 If it is HUO and only one owner, and is in the condition stated, then currently not a bad price..IMO!! They don't come up often, especially a really good one, so best of luck to whoever gets it....wish I had the cash lying around!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

litz Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Sounds like you know this fucker ol mate?? Dont know him,but lives nearby. His pins are always sold for heap$$$$$ Must be his bloody long listing! So has this seller had any other TZ's for sale on ebay in recent times?? Yes why do you say that? Not mine,and mine did not come from him. Going on his auction,mine would be worth maybe $10g:lol It is an HUO machine that was won from brand new in a pinball comp in NZ,then sat in the guys loungeroom for years untill i got it.Have all papers to account for it. Now thats HUO:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gints Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Still, if it really is in great nick, and some pedantic dude is really after one in great nick, then it's probably a fine price. Same as for when Finny's MB went for a mint: if it's worth the premium to someone in order to have one THAT GOOD, then good on em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screwloose Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 (edited) why do you say that? There was some discussion mid March about a TZ on ebay. Same seller different TZ machine. Edited May 8, 2009 by screwloose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railways Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Don't know what all the fuss is about- Hell I bought a TZ for 1800 3 mths ago to see why this is #1??.It needs cosmetic work and has electronic issues but for the the price I'll have a go. Played another AA members' TZ a few times but didn't have a clue what it's all about until I've now got this poor thing up and running. I'm starting to learn it warts and all.I've got big plans for this Baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Tilt Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Just put TZ's a notch up in price, does someone want one for 4k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinsanity Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Just put TZ's a notch up in price I wouldn't look too much into it Mr T in my opinion.:cool: Every single machine this seller has put on ebay has ALWAYS gone for well above market value for some unknown reason. ;) A previous self described "average condition" TZ for 5100 The self described average condition TAF which just finished for 5317 Now this supposed "Collectors Condition" "Mostly" HUO TZ with a semi faded cab, rusty legs and rusty lockdown bar for 7000. The final prices achieved just don't accurately reflect the conditions of each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
