if u decide to sell on ebay u would be looking atleast £200 to £275 as club machines do fetch good money on there.

happy selling

i dunno really it depends if u have alot of gamblers in ur area that wanna buy it, or u could put it on ebay with a reserve but as i say club machines do sell well on ebay.

GOOD LUCK!!!

Carry on Clubbing? That Global thing with the 3 boards??
I would give you £100 on a good day!
.......actually..
.......make that £75 and you deliver :)
Being serious though...to sell on eBay one of the best ways is NOT to put the starting price at what you think the value is! I remember one case where a man was selling a Winner Takes All with a starting price of £150....unsurprisingly after 3 weeks of listing it went down to about £50 start and I seem to remember him getting about £150 for it!!

I would set a sensible start on that machine, low enough to get people interested. £150 would probably be sensible on it, but don't forget that in auctions you are not guarenteed to get as much as you would like. I would advertise for £250 ONO in a paper and possibly a website/magazine like E&M, and put on the eBay listing that 'Item is advertised elsewhere so I reserve the right to cancel auction at any time!'

Thats just my opinion on the matter :)

Trade price i guess is round the £100 mark, but, like everything in this world.. sell it privately, no reason why you couldnt fetch 200+

personally i dont like the machine, but im not being bias about the 200+ as club machine hold their value for years where as a.w.p`s do not

:wink:
