This post is solely for the purpose of those who coudln't make it to Pinfest 2018, couldn't be there Friday or Saturday to pick up their holy grail game and for those who are still interested in selling/buying.. Post pics of the machines that didn't sell. Projects as well.
No pictures yet as the games are still in the trailer but I have:
A working Stern Hot Hand
Connectors rebuilt, new bridge rectifiers, some playfield wear
$650
Gottlieb Bell Ringer & Nudge It Redemption Pinball games
Both working and complete. $600 each
Somebody had a Rally Playboy there at a booth in the back of the hall. (Yes Rally not Bally....) it was a serious project and had “make offer” on it. If the owner sees this I could use some parts if it’s headed in that direction....
There was a nice Evel Kneivel that sold at the show but for some serious $$. If anyone has one for sale please pm me. Thanks!!

I was watching an episode of "The Pickers"and this guy knew Evil Kneivel. He had tons of stuff that Evil owned,and he also had an Evil Knievel pinball machine.What really amazed me was, they didn't even look at the machine!
Baby Pac-Man (Gangsta Baby) working project is still listed here on Pinside. Fun game, which takes up less space. 10 miles from Allentown.
I couldn't bring my WCS because I picked up Mustang wheels/tires off Craigslist while passing thru York and didn't have the room for a 2nd game.
Didn't get a chance to go. Some highlights:
1) Monopoly (Restored) - see ad
2) Metallica Prem translite
3) Monopoly New Topper (Lasserific)
4) Monopoly left and right ramps - hard to find. Used.
5) Shadow CPU

Looking for a Bally Viking, Cosmic Gunfight and if someone is looking to upgrade their Iron Maiden pro to premium or LE, please pm me, I may be interested in
picking up the pro.
Quoted from dracula40:Did that Championship Spint sell ?
It was pretty nice aside from the monitor needing work. Seems like a $600-$700 game as it stood.

Just curious - what's serious $$ for an EK these days??
Quoted from dmieczko:Just curious - what's serious $$ for an EK these days??
Not sure I’d call it serious money, it was my friends game he brought and sold for $1700, but it was a nice original game.
For the most part, stuff was priced on the moon in free play and I did not see a lot sell like years past. At 3:30 just before I started packing it in Saturday, the buying vibe was definitely not in effect.
I sold all my stuff. Had to kind of dump the Addams but since it was broken for half the show I kind of figured that would happen. We rallied on Saturday though and got it operational for free play.
I picked up a dirty Big Game from the flea market which was nice.
I really wanted to buy that Cup Head video game just because I'd never seen it before and the animation was super cool.

What did that Addams end up going for?

Gansta Baby, aka Baby Crac. Someone should buy this!

I'm pretty sure it was a custom cab someone designed around the game.
[edit]: yep:
Quoted from ruzeo:I talked to 4 different sellers bringing Royal Rumbles to the show but I didnt see a single one there they must have sold quick.
There was one or two in the vendor area right next to the tournament area.

If it was the Evel in free play, listed at $1800, sold to a local friend on Friday for $1500. I looked at it at the show and yesterday again. Turns out it had a NOS PF installed at some point. Was easy to tell with the lack of cardboard tags underneath and the wrong assembly screws that were installed. Great buy.

Totally worth it. Very nice machine!

So were there two EK's for sale in the freeplay area?? One sold for 1700 and had a nice, original PF. Was this a 2nd?

I bought Tom's (Tom in CT, not Tom in PA) EK for $1700. I told Tom in PA I paid $1500 because my wife sometimes reads my PM's on here LOL Not that she was happy with $1500 either but... any little bit helps, especially when you come home with 5 machines. Sorry for the confusion... She won't read posts... but she'll look through PM's especially about machine purchases LOL.
The PF on Tom (CT Tom) machine was an NOS installed sometime far enough into the past to get ball swirls in it, & light planking in paint, but not long enough to have really any wear around inserts, or any discolor of white inserts or cupping. So I'd guess 10-15 years ago? It was obvious after looking underneath it, it was not a factory Bally job.
Very happy with it.... getting a Cab paint job within the month & some other small upgrades. PF will get full clear job whenever I find time. It had a minor Lamp driver issue & couple lamp socket issues that I fixed Saturday night. Also changed all the bulbs out for Comet Retros & SMD frosted warms in backbox.
Just wish I could find some EK decals for the top of the dead pop bumper caps up on the top.... have new caps coming from PBR.

American Pickers (Mike, Frank, Danielle and especially Mike's brother) don't know their asses from their elbows when it comes to pinball and arcade games.
Regarding my World Cup Soccer 94 for sale. I can bring it to Toms River, NJ on Friday May 18th and I can meet in that area for you to pickup. I'm attending a memorial service for a friend and heading back to WV afterwards, so I cannot deliver very far from Toms River and prefer you meet up with me if you're not in Ocean County.

What is Houdini black arrow? I wasn’t aware American pinball was offering a Houdini LE? Just looked on their website and the marketing materials and there is nothing there.
Quoted from WeatherbyMAG:I bought Tom's (Tom in CT, not Tom in PA) EK for $1700
Looks amazing - I think that's a good price. Congrats.
That Evel Knieval is nice. I wouldn't mind one. If anyone has one up for sale, hit me up. Projects are a o k as well.
Quoted from andrewket:What is Houdini black arrow? I wasn’t aware American pinball was offering a Houdini LE? Just looked on their website and the marketing materials and there is nothing there.
Hobbit Black Arrow - is same as LE but in black trim and different cabinet artwork.. Same price $ 8,500...
Houdini is one game - no LE or different models... all are $ 7,000

Just a typo. Replace Houdini below with Hobbit
Quoted from gmkalos:There really should be another show in the middle of the summer and one in the winter! If it's good you cant have enough of it right Augustus! lol
There's one in the summer in upstate NY

They don't, but they're getting a little better I think.
