Nitro is proud to be an official distributor for Heighway Pinball. We will be taking care of all Canadian orders going forward and be able to offer reduced shipping based on volume. Pricing will remain the same as if you ordered direct. One (1) year warranty, customer support & Nitro pack is included with purchase. As with Heighway, a deposit is required and balance just prior to shipping.

Feel free to contact me toll free at 1-855-366-4876 (#1) [email protected]

Thanks, T

Quoted from aeonblack:

I ordered direct from the website. Either way it's shipping from the states for me. Cointaker pricing may fluctuate, but direct you are getting the benefit that the price now will be locked in. Other than that, it's all the same.

Nitro is the Canadian distributor for Heighway. Not only is the price same, but we include shipping, 1 year warranty & tech support to customers nationwide. Ordering direct provides no additional benefit + you pay for shipping. I should also note, based on our discussions with Cointaker in the USA their pricing does not fluctuate either.

#3658 8 years ago
Quoted from aeonblack:

Would be nice if this was listed on their site! Shit.

Although we're listed on Heighway's website as Canadian distributor, I can see how you might not know that unless you were specifically searching for it. The online ordering system also does not help either. I'll be addressing this first thing and effort to switch you over.

Quoted from rubberducks:

Direct from Heighway is cheaper, even including shipping to the US.

Incorrect. Nitro pricing is the same as Heighway. I'm pretty sure Cointaker's is as well.

#7483 7 years ago
Quoted from rubberducks:

Nitro would be cheaper for Canadian customers once local taxies are levied, I think.
However, direct from Heighway is the cheapest option for US customers.

Cointaker includes the 27" upgrade on FT's ...a $550 upgrade. I think with the free shipping you'll find it works out the same.

Quoted from focusmediagroup:

Just waiting for release to order both a Full Throttle and Alien conversion. Pretty excited and watching Alien now.

We're Canada's distributor for Heighway Pinball. We have Full Throttle in stock and are currently taking orders for Alien. Let us know when you decide to pull the trigger. We're pretty excited as well!

Quoted from Maken:

Question for those who have sent a deposit for alien... Have you been asked to send your deposit money via EMT or via paypal as gift?
The distributor in Canada will only accept paypal if the customer eats the merchant fees. Seems odd to me as they are not a friend or individual, but a company. Also, surcharges for accepting PayPal seem to go against the paypal user agreement.

Ken, we've been over this with you and have offered virtually every payment method for your purchase. However, we can't absorb the ridiculous Paypal fee's on a purchase of this size. We will accept CC, and any number of other payment methods that would still offer buyer protection. Contact me if anytime, Tommy

#11205 7 years ago
Quoted from jonesjb:

You should not be paying for a pinball machine via PayPal as a gift. It is against the terms of service, and a company shouldn't be endorsing this.

Our company does not endorse this, and certainly not for a pinball machine purchase. It was suggested as a deposit method only to accommodate the customer. However, full payment of pinball machines is available via CC (no charges), Direct Deposit, EMT, Cheque etc.

Quoted from MikeHogue:

You've taken over the market for Alien pinballs in Canada! I might need to make a trip up north again!
I hope this doesn't hurt the NW Pinball shows chances of getting an Alien!

Alien will be at the Nitro booth at NW Pinball Show!

Good news,where's mine

Yours is shipping to Nitro! You won't need it...you're taking the David Thiel model...complete with autograph! Lol

Quoted from pingod:

Yes I am,thank you Tommy
would be nice for you to have it in there right away to.
How's that going,I heard he has added a lot now.

I heard from David before he left for Pintastic. He's added over 100 sound clips and communicated any bug fixes to the team. His input has been absolutely invaluable.

Nitro received the required Xeno heads, parts & upgrades recently for our Alien customers in Canada that had received their game (during Andrew's tenure), but had outstanding issues. The communication between Heighway & Nitro has been fantastic. This is a welcome change from the previous management. Very much looking forward to getting Alien pins out to everyone soon!

Quoted from jonesjb:

What is Roman/PDI glass and why do people prefer it so much more to other anti reflective glass?

at Nitro Pinball in Canada we sell it as Roman Glass.
