TIP How much is a fully restored Addams worth?

If it is a hack it is worth noting..
Hate radcals because you can't see how they did the exterior cabinet. Radcals are also hard to install well, trim the holes, etc.
A good way to judge the cab is looking inside ane the bottom panel from inside and outside. If corners were cut here, for example, it does not look pristine, then under the radcals corners were cut 10000%. A poorly made cab is a bad start.
Then the mechs, wiring and all this? Has it been hacked.
Next, boards?
If it is comparable to what HEP makes, then it is worth quite a bit.
If it is "looks new" collector special that looks good from 5 feet away it is worth nothing to me and will need to be all redone. I would never buy this.
If this is the game you showed me last year, I suspect he wants more than what it was originally discussed hence the delays.

Seems silly but... It's worth whatever you are willing to pay and they are willing to sell it for. Buyers want cheap and sellers want gold.
The playfield is everything to me. You can always fix or restore a cabinet, when they are rough, should you want to, but a playfield restore or purchase and swap is a huge, costly deal.

If it’s a top notch restore, as others have indicated, it’s likely in the $12k-$14k range. However, has to be HEP level of restore.
I have a HUO TAFG with a Poolman cleared pf, and it would rival a HEP example.
As dnaman indicated above, it’s ultimately worth what you feel it’s worth.
The extras are easy to add, the key is the pf. Not a big fan of radcals but ymmv.
