      You don't go to a pawn shop to get top value for an item, you go there because you can sell something quickly versus perhaps taking weeks or months or having to deal with an auction. You are going to lose some value in that exchange...that's how it is, that's how it's been and that is likely to always be how it is. If a perfectly restored one is worth 5 grand then that guy is delusional to think his is worth close to that with a non restored play field and faulty flippers, I mean the thing needed MORE repair even outside of cosmetic stuff. If it's worth 2500 (which is about accurate) then an offer of 1800 in that shop is actually quite generous.

      So lets break this down. You're implying here that you know the actual totally accurate and undisputed real world dollar value of 95% of the items seen on the show that are looked at by an expert. So by proxy you're basically saying that you're an expert in essentially every possible type of item. Well gee golly not sure why they don't just hire you as their full time in house expert. Oh yeah it's probably because you're clearly a clueless nitwit.

      Yes it's called one item being from his era... and the other not. Most people that were adults when pokemon hit the world... were not watching pokemon...they were adulting.
