with expo just over a month away, I figured I would start this thread so that pinsiders can post items they are looking to buy or sell

I'll start with things that I can bring (to sell) if I have a buyer:

- 3 bottles (750ml) of the metallica blackened whiskey (the other I'm bringing to drink) - $65ea (1 - Wmsfan) (1 - trent) (1 - MK6PIN)
(I'm not looking to make a profit on them, just break even based on my costs and shipping)

- NIB Laseriffic AC/DC train pinball topper ($225)

- NIB CPR joust playfield [screened] plastics set ($500)
joust plastics (resized).jpg

- NOS monster bash parts [~~dr. frankenstein($25), bride of frankenstein ($40), igor ($35), dracula ($40)~~, dome assembly x2 ($40ea)]
figures tentatively sold to Mfox

I could potentially have a Stern Stars for sale if anyone is looking for one. Playfield and backglass are very nice, but the game needs a complete shop job. It is currently at my lakehouse and not sure I will be able to do the work on it before expo so if anyone is looking for a nice project game hit me up.

Woo hoo! Can’t wait to see everybody! We will be there if you need us to bring a brand new machine, speaker kits, or any of our mods. Just need to know with ample time!

We will have some DEMO GAMES in our booth, if there is a game you are interested in purchasing a demo before the show let me know! It’s a great way to get the new game you want as a demo with a nice discount.

Used backglasses for Big Game, Seawitch, James Bond, and Star God. None in great condition, all have some flaking, best for wall decorations or in a game that has no glass. Feel free to shoot me offers. Also have a Big Game empty cabinet, full wire harness, and apron.

Nah, that's full of a bunch of old men arguing about the past.

Quoted from Zablon:

Yes! Just show up with your game near the dock on the north/back side of the hotel. If you're there on Wednesday or Thursday, games will be coming in pretty much all day, and someone will show you where to go through the back hallway of the hotel. Even if there's no official volunteer around, feel free to ask anyone for a hand unloading. People who bring games are generally pretty helpful to others bringing games, especially first timers.

After you set up your game, get a free admission wristband from whoever's signing in people this year.

I'm planning to bring at least one game but I'm local so I can bring whatever if a deal is made.

Bally Strikes and Spares: Recent shop job, definitely players condition. $900

Gottlieb Target Alpha: recent shop job, overall decent condition, nice Backglass. $900

Bally Expressway: super nice condition, pristine Backglass. Counter shows 8500 plays and the playfield/game is so nice id believe it. No kickout marks. $1000

I have a project tri zone and royal flush I don't think I'll be getting to any time soon...pm if interested.

you're at least the 3rd person that's been looking for one.. I'm guessing many didn't survive ops mishandling them. It's literally a plastic handle attached to a rod mounted to a bracket with a torsion spring and a switch. I should take mine apart to see how bad it would be to replicate it.
