Sure, but everything I've seen in the 4 figures range is MUCH older than I'm looking for or needs MUCH more work than I would like to put in for my first table.

Sure, but everything I've seen in the 4 figures range is MUCH older than I'm looking for or needs MUCH more work than I would like to put in for my first table. Every year, I go to an annual pinball convention in my area. The tables that are 4 figures are the old 70s and 80s tables. Hell, one I've had my eye on (Fish Tales [1] from 1992) is averaging about $5,700USD on Pinside. [1] https://pinside.com/pinball/machine/fish-tales https://pinside.com/pinball/machine/fish-tales
