Did a pinsider pick up Shane's Shrek in Calgary?
I'll be brief and to the point.
Best game available for $5k and under. Alberta, Sask or Manitoba preferably unless you'll ship.
Would love an Addams even if it needed a little TLC.
Pm me please. Go.
Quoted from Linkage:Flash and Elrktra Bodies I mentioned.

I like this approach. Not much is trading hands these days, might as well throw it out!
Quoted from Stretch7:There's jay Richardson pinball as well
Jay is great and he periodically has some used pinballs for sale but you'd be best to call him as his website 'for sale' isn't always up to date.
Free Star Wars in Red Deer???
Anyone heard back yet? I called with 0 views and still no call back.
Is it real? Let the games begin
Now the phone number has changed and definitely not a pinball guy. Thinks someone is pranking him. 5 calls in 10 minutes. 1st number was a real estate agent? Anyone gotten thru? Sounds like a scam:/
Quoted from puck:Looking for a GnR any condition.
no idea if this is still available, but it can't hurt to shoot him an email vancouver.craigslist.ca link
Looking for a Williams Fire!, A Black Rose, DE Time Machine, or a Tommy. If you come across one, please let me know! Preferably in relatively good shape.
Thanks

Sweet interactive IJ topper from tilt topper for sale. Still new in box. Never installed. Was $280US with shipping to Calgary. $350 Canadian if someone wants it. I might be interested in trading for parts or mods for other games too. Just let me know. Not putting on Kijiji at this point. Would look great just hanging on a wall even. Real cool topper!
Moved into the shop today: Firepower (sold), Dolly Parton and a Six Million Dollar Man. Bodies only. Also have a complete 1972 Sea Wolf. Is this game as bad as they say?
The Indy topper is sweet.
Another shot in the dark here. Needing two early Bally SS Mini Posts... can only find them in places that want my left arm to ship a glorified screw with a small rubber on it. Anyone have a couple.
Even bigger unlikelyhood... I'm looking to track down pop bumper covers (2 of them) and at least 2, preferably all 6 Drop targets for my Bally Frontier. The pops are actually up on Ebay, I just thought I'd take a shot that perhaps someone in Canada has a few spare parts up for grabs.
In the spirit of begging... I'm going to offer something in return... I have a "Jailhouse Rock" archway for an Elvis pin. I have absolutely no use for this mod and to be honest... can't remember how I got it in the first place. If you need/want it... shoot me a PM. Canadian addresses only please.
Who wants a $3500 Star Trek Next Gen?

Quoted from Blackbeard:Have a really nice Flintstones right across the border!
Hey Blackbeard, if you transported that pin just across the border and returned back to the states, would you need to pay tax? If any of us picked up the pin in the States and came over the border with it, we would be taxed. Depending on how close you are to the border, you may want to add that border "service" to sweeten the deal.

I did that in another posting. But yes, I could deliver as long as it's not too far into Canada.

Back in the days of a strong Canadian dollar, I did a number of deals with an operator out of Maine. He would drive the pins across the border and meet me on the Canadian side. He was taxed on whatever value he disclosed at customs.

FYI, I spoke with the original owner from Switzerland.
This pin was sold to a buddy of his, and currently resides in Lyons, France.
So, I advise to avoid dealings with the OP, and maybe the site admins at MACCA should take a look for duplicate IP's/accounts, or trace the IP and give the community a heads up to where this scammer resides.
We have a small community. Word gets around if you are duplicitous, sneaky, scamming or out right trying to commit fraud. I hope the person who tried this is exposed for what they are. My guess is they are active on many forums/kijiji, and are constantly looking for the next grift.

So I guess there is no advatage in having our American friends bring it over the border for us if they are going to be taxed as well.
Quoted from aeonblack:"Yes, sir, that's correct, this game is worth $500"
Be careful, I moved a bunch of games from the states into Canada, and one time they googled the price of the game as I low balled it and were going to charge me their fair price and fine for trying. Luckily I just got a warning.

Archway looks to be spoken for. A free gift to the lucky winner. Pay it forward Wednesday!

^^^ This^^^
After a number of trips across the border where the customs agent barely lifted his head to look at me, I made the mistake of lowballing some games I was bringing across. 6 hours later, after my entire truck was taken apart, the games had been hauled out of the trailer (and left for me to reload all by my lonesome), and it was made very clear I wasn't going anywhere until they spoke directly with the seller to confirm what I had paid I decided to never again try that.

This is just plain ridiculous. Talk about money hungry border patrol. It's bad enough they grab tax on a used item but to take your truck apart and leave you there to sort it out, that is just sad. I've had some really good experiences bringing games back but now they are so hungry for money I dread even considering the trip. Nothing like being treated like a scum bag criminal when you are just trying to bring a game home from the US.

Just declare the proper amount and have a receipt and you won't have any problems. The written receipt is the key part.

I'm also looking for a new game. Anyone in Western Canada got a Quicksilver, Stargazer, Volley, Surfer, Joker Poker, maybe a Whirlwind, or BK2K, basically looking for an older game preDMD. Posting a wanted add in Western Canada is probably pointless. But just wanted to throw it out there, that I'm looking for another game to put beside Tron
