The final sales data for used pinball machines are in for 2022 and the Pinflation increase is a little higher than we reported in the November TWIP article (Pinflation 2022: Slower Rising prices).

Pinflation is still here, with overall average used pinball machine prices up 21% so far this year. But the newest cohort of games (2010 to 2022) often grab the eye of the pinball enthusiasts and with those machines up almost $1700 in 2020 and an additional $1200 in 2022, it’s hard to celebrate slower rising prices.
