Title: Bonzini for sale cheap-B60...I think
Post by: bbtuna on June 27, 2011, 11:08:50 AM
not a Bonzini fan but I respect them and know they are super expensive and that this forum has fans...this table is in WV...buy it now for $600 which is super cheap

can't tell the model but it looks like a split top which I believe makes it a B60...those who know for sure can say but even if its not, this table looks like its in perfect condition and if you ever wanted a Bonzi then here is your chance

It's a Home Model B90 in Beech wood.

That item description is a little goofy and confusing.

The $600 BUY IT NOW is now gone, and I can definitely see the final selling price go over that...the mint Rustic model at $999 was actually a really good price for one as well and I wonder if s/he ever sold it:

If I had a few hundred dollars TO SPARE, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. The bids will go up on this one. Anything under $1000 is a freaking bargain on these and there are a few players in the area, Virginia, NC, SC, who horde these things, buy them cheap and turn a profit reselling.

Anderson is right, double the $600 price is still a bargain.  I actually thought about the "buy it now" price and driving up there this weekend to get it.  Question: why would someone bid the table to $605 (and eventually much higher) rather than use the buy it now feature?

thought they would save themselves a couple of bucks hoping no one else would bid on it rather than just taking the deal of the century as it was offered

John, how's the leg? Heard you had quite an accident out on the trails. Get back soon. We've had a lot of players coming out. Hope to see you back soon.

By the way. Can you loan me $605?

so did someone on here buy it?

Ah shucks! Hope it was John. That's just too great a deal to go to someone I don't know.

Holy crap, why did the seller end the auction early and sell it at $605?!?!?!  I think s/he could have tweaked out a bit more...I hope it somehow makes it out to the midwest somewhere.

I've seen a few guys flip a few tables for a small profit out here in the midwest.

I was the 600 bid... Don't know who the 605 bidder was or why seller ended auction early... yet.  :)

FYI: When I went to purchase the table the "buy now" was gone. So... I just put in the 600 bid and was waiting until Sunday to check it out before the sale ended.

awww its the new "buy now" rules.... Better go read about them before you bid on anything on Ebay. New rules suck!

Are you in the DC area, or is Apex, NC not close to you?  If you are having it shipped then I would just contact this seller:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270757718453

Offer them $750 or something.  That rustic table appears to be in mint condition and is a good deal at $999 and an even deal at less than that.

Hey Mark,  the ankle is doing well and the doctor told me to ease back into normal activities.  Might show up Friday, not sure yet.

I didn't buy the table but sure thought about it.  Congratulations to whomever got a B-90 for $605!  A few years ago I bought a B-60 for $50 but it was a restoration project.  I don't really have room for a table right now but would buy a nice one for a cheap, if it were local.  Still buy the antique foos guys though; 4 more on the way from the Netherlands!!!

Sweet! Do they still look like Bruce Nardoci? All foosmen should look like Nardoci and should wear the same shoes.

I did just that Jinhopark (great minds think alike ;)) but he is wanting more than that for the table now and I just can't go that high. The search is still on. I don't want a used tournament table if I can help it.

Well if he sold it for $999 on eBay (which he listed it a few times and it did not sell) he would have only got $906 after eBay and Paypal fees...so how much could he be asking?  If I lived closer that table would be sitting in my basement right now.

1200.00 is what he is asking now.

1200.00 is what he is asking now.

Not that it's not worth it, but logic would tell me that if it didn't sell in a month for $999 then it probably won't sell for $1,200...although it is all about timing, and if someone were in the market for a new Bonzini table then they should seriously consider this one (if they are local).  As long as he doesn't need the cash and space now, then I'm sure he can eventually get whatever it is he is asking (within reason)...best of luck to him.

Ive tried calling several times since yesterday when it was first posted.  No response and no return of call.

It's the same table that was up for sale last time. Same area.
