Let's hear your story about a Pinball Machine you got absolutely FREE.
Here's mine: My wife works in Real Estate. She was selling a ladies house
about 2 minutes away from me. (her husband passed away and she was moving to a smaller house)
Her basement had about 20 Arcade Games, Pinball Machines, Juke Boxes, etc.
She didn't know what to do, so I offered to help her sell them. A few of my friends snapped up the
video games pretty quick as they were in excellent condition. After a few of the pinball
machines were sold, she told me to come over and pick out a pinball machine I might like,
and she would give it to me for helping out. I told her, no, she was trying to raise money
and I would pay her if I wanted anything. She wouldn't hear of it and so I picked out an EM called PROSPECTOR (Laurel & Hardy on backglass).
It was in perfect condition with only the left flipper stuck. I didn't want to take a machine I knew
she could make some real money on, such as her KISS, etc.
...well, that's the story of my free machine...what's yours?
