MastroNet, a huge auctioneer of sports memorabilia, sold a Rock-ola World Series machine for $46,835.00 in December.
From a MastroNet press release:
Some sports collectors have too much money. Although owning a historical machine like this would be cool, I can't imagine dropping almost $47,000 for any game or... well, almost anything really.A nickel brings the players to life in this arcade classic. The buyer had to put in a bit more to purchase what is generally considered the finest baseball arcade of all time. The mini-stadium sold for $46,835.00.
This auction also contained the Bartman foul ball that "ruined" the Cubs' chances of getting to the World Series last year. It went for $106,600.00.
