Reply to Egret 2 Partsby butters4lifeYeah sadly long gone are the days of trucks of them just showing up. Still, parts seem thicker on the ground than for an Egret. I finally have a games room now though in the new place so it can take its rightful place.

I'm more interested in restoring it than selling it I think at least at this point since the only issues are really sticker-related (and the clear artwork marquee). I recently redid the CP (changed out 2L4B to 2L6B), swapped...Today, 12:56 PM -

Original Egret2 fetches $3k plus these days.
Is it worth fixing or sell it as is ?
You can still fetch a minimum of $1500 plus as is if you decide to sell it.

by furballxDon't lube! Pinball parts run dry, adding lube will just give all of that shitty black "pinfunk" somewhere to accumulate.
Certainly do not add WD40 to your game, it will all end in tears.

After being out of the game for a while, I am working on restoring my Taito Egret 2.It still works nicely but has a bunch of cosmetic damage, scratches, dings, peeled art etc and is missing its marquee.

by pinball godI over capitalized on mine because it was a keeper. But the market brought it up to break even and at a nib price. So out it went.

Reply to Cab price checkby namastepatYeah, Chinese candy goes for between 500-700.
A Japanese candy will set you back 1200-1400 in the current market, so the Chinese ones have to be priced accordingly against the Japanese models.

by furballxDon't lube! Pinball parts run dry, adding lube will just give all of that shitty black "pinfunk" somewhere to accumulate.
