I just called him. I was hoping it would be a machine that needed work. He said it was not him that posted the ad. He did say he has several machines for sale. Including a few Twilight zones he wants $10,000USD.

I have brought one across. It cost me $235 to get from Detroit to Windsor. I used Monts on time Delivery for that part. It cost me $70 CAD to Jets customs for the paperwork. I also paid $450 CAD tax to Jets for $2500.00USD Superman man machine.

I live just off Huron Church so that is why it was so cheap.

Yes, they are great to deal with as well! I’ve done it twice during the pandemic. One was my arcade machine. I tipped the driver to help me bring the machine into the basement! The arcade was the same price as the pinball machine! So the taxes were the same. I didn’t have to pay duty on either one of them. I think my Stranger Things will come from the states as well(when I get it!). It’s way cheaper than here!

I don’t usually get involved, but you took advantage of someone who was trying to help people. You then attack someone who pointed out that you took advantage of the first person. This forum is pretty big but I know I will never buy from you, I’m sure the way you are acting now will pretty much guarantee you won’t sell at all. Just apologize and move on.

Re read your own ad. You are not worth any more of my time or energy.

my absolute favourite game! I played it at my buddies house so much he thought I was there just to play it! Lol

It is in my neighborhood! If it were stranger things I would be happy.

How many of us are in Windsor?!?

I don’t know about their warranty but they are awesome to buy parts from! Quick shipping and well packaged!

Hi everyone ,im look for a data east jurassic park pin , hopefully in BC , but if a sellers willing to ship from other provinces I'd be up for

Look on Kijiji Windsor and surrounding area

Kingston has one one Kijiji right now. I don’t know how much. Just look in Ontario.

It is a business. Have not dealt with them as of yet.

Just a random statement but every time I see Saskatoon I think of Grown ups 2. They had a muscle guy with a kids voice he said he was from saskachatoon! It was pretty funny!
Lol

There is one for sale in Indiana. Elkhart pinball

We aren’t allowed to buy from Nitro. Our distributor is player one amusement

You are right it does?!?! I’ve called to purchase from them they told me I had to buy from P1!!

There is a sea witch in London for sale. The seller is great to deal with as well!

I can say pinsforlife33 is a great guy. I’ve dealt with him before. I think It was a joke gone wrong.

What is the difference between the two? I didn’t see that until you pointed it out.

Wasn’t there one in Kijiji London recently?

Has anyone talked to the person with the pirates of the Caribbean? It’s been listed so many times. Just wondering if it’s a scam.

Sorry, Kijiji. I don’t have Facebook or any other social media things. Pinside is the only one I have.

Someone in Essex Ontario has a twilight zone for sale. They want $15,000 I feel like it’s overpriced.

Dear eight pound 6 ounce, newborn baby Jesus, don’t even know a word yet, just a little infant, so cuddly, but still omnipotent-

I think I saw one in Chatham-Kent not too long ago. Yes it was around $4000

I’m noticing quite a few of the pinball machines that I wanted a couple years ago are up for sale again in Ontario!?

You missed a great opportunity… too FLIPPING bad! Lol

In Essex. He had a few of them for sale. Twilight Zone, Road kings and Johnny Mnemonic.

COVID has everything to do with the pricing problem. I would never have bought the machines I have if I went on vacation rather than being stuck in the house. I really don’t think the prices will stay this way. I’ve noticed in the past couple weeks that there are lots of people selling off what they have collected during the pandemic and some just because the opportunity to to get close to double what they paid isn’t going to be here long. I have kind of gotten addicted to my arcade room. Especially the pinball machines! I really don’t think many people feel the same way.

Jerry Power at Player one amusement is a pretty good guy to deal with.

Won’t be like that for long. The sanctions put on Russia will effect EVERYONE!

Yes, very.

Wow! You took that to the wrong place! I think you are a special kind of stupid! I didn’t once say i think it’s wrong that they did it! I just said it will effect the whole economy!

Have a good day!

I’m absolutely loving arcades right now! I ordered a cocktail Millipede just waiting for it to show up!

I think it’s all about timing for anything! Pinball and arcade machines are popular now. COVID did that. We were stuck in the house and vacation money was put into our homes and toys. I have always wanted them, but vacationing was more important. I have kind of become addicted to the hobby, so I’ll be here a while. I don’t think most will be though. I’ve done a similar post in the past. The machines I wanted that were on Kijiji when I started are being sold now with basically their whole game room.

No, it’s an original Atari! I’ve had one of the 1 up Virtual Pinball machines. Our family didn’t like it. We haven’t tried the arcade machines yet. I’m sure it can’t be that different but the original 80’s one is what I played at “Bowlero” bowling alley! We are so excited to get it!

I just bought a machine. Think I should wait a while before I get any more. Thank you though!

You just came up with the solution! Throw 4 nice mickey Thompson wheels on a pinball machine! You will make some quick cash!

BSD for sale on KIJIJI $7000 in Kitchener

Edit! Sorry already posted

Someone has an iron maiden and AC/DC for sale in Richmond on

That’s the best part of being on Pinside. At least one or two people know you or have dealt with you! You can find out pretty quickly who you can trust and who you can’t!

Has anyone else had problems with Titan Trucking? They showed up a day late to pick up with no notice they were going to be late or when they would be there. They were supposed to drop off here either Thursday or Friday. It’s now Tuesday and it hasn’t arrived as of yet with no information given to me at all. It’s a company I wouldn’t suggest using!

It’s supposed to be delivered tomorrow. I’m praying that it is!

They are stuck buying yours or nothing! I’ve only ever sold one machine (my first machine) C37) pins4life33 made it easy to sell in Canada, otherwise it was going to the States. I was lucky it was an extremely wanted machine. We have a very small market. They can buy in the States and pay the shipping, exchange, tax, and customs brokerage fees (I use Jets Customs they are easy and AMAZING!) or buy yours it really doesn’t save them money. I try not to deal with Canadian sales anyway. The machine has usually been through the hands of people who think they know what they are doing and just damage it. Plus they are going by the price point of a collector’s quality with a beat up routed machine!

Plus tax, customs brokerage fees and shipping

I thought you were talking about an American company. I forgot some Canadian companies use American prices.

I agree. Look at Kijiji Ontario. The people that bought when I started buying machines are now selling what they have. They are looking for too much money for them but I think the prices will fall pretty fast.

What do Avengers Infinity Quest pro go for in Ontario?

It really doesn’t matter anyway. It won’t sell to a Pinsider. It will sit there until the price drops, or a new Pinhead decides they want it, not knowing price points. If they wait too long they will be stuck with it.

It’s easier to ask for forgiveness than permission!

I love my Superman machine! I hope you get one!

Mine is bolted to the floor. Still my favourite game! Don’t know about $12,000 mine was $8500 about two years ago.

I bought some HO scale trees for mine. But I used Gorilla spray glue on them I should have used clear coat. I’m going to try to get some more they look great in there. Brian Allen art blades and translite are worth every penny! Skull mountain and missing mountain kind of look too busy together but I have them anyway. I have the original topper and some but my ceilings are too low to put it on. So it sits in my closet and stares at me every morning when I get dressed! Lol

Yes, he hasn’t had any with wire forms since I bought mine. I’ll find some.

I saw that! Lol!

I was waiting for the new batch of Stranger Things! Guess where that got me! Lol

Lol!

Some buy just to turn them on and look at them like a piece of art.

I’ve used Jets customs and he did everything for me! Andrew is an amazing guy to deal with! But yes, it’s HST on the machine. Yes, you have to prove that it’s made in North America. That is why I used Jets Customs they do it all.

Agreed!

The biggest worry is moving it! Lol!

Too many say they are going to buy or they are looking for something, when the deal falls into their lap they do nothing!

Call player one

I couldn’t find the ad for Alien. They must be a Pinsider and read this!

There is a great video on the scam forum

I agree! There are some forums here I stay completely away from! There are also more that are just awesome, friendly, helpful and just plain fun!

Lmfao!

Lmfao!

There is one for sale in Michigan

You are going to start seeing quite a lot of machines that are priced out of most peoples pockets. Too many people like me joined the ownership club during COVID we way over paid and most will fall out of the hobby. They won’t lose the money they invested (really bad investment!) in the machines they bought. So they won’t sell and let them rot in a garage or shed. I know I’m here for quite a while now. Not all are though. I’ve been finding so many machines lately that are worth $1000 or less for sale at $2500 firm.

I understand what you are saying. I was just answering the previous statement. It’s not really supposed to be a discussion on price. Just an opinion on where this hobby will probably lead.
Kids aren’t the same as we were (assuming you are a 70’s/80’s kid). I spent most of my childhood outdoors with physical friends riding bikes to the few places to play pins or arcades, fishing, building forts in the forest, catching snakes turtles. My kids spend their time with virtual friends indoors. My kids and the few physical people that come over go nuts for them at first but the novelty wears pretty quickly as their faces turn zombie blue looking at their phone screens.
Yes, I’ve played every pin/arcade I’ve happened upon on vacations or shopping for the last 30 some odd years, my kids and ex were more aggravated than happy to see them knowing I was going to put a few bucks in to enjoy.
My life up until now has been about spending that money on vacations as opposed to pins. I’m sure that it will eventually be that way again for most if not all new owners on here now. I was the first of my group to buy a pin. The others have bought and now the machines just sit in their basement waiting for the next renovation to be either sold for what they paid or placed in a garage/shed until it rots. I know when they were excited about them they wanted a second, third but they were very priced out of that. Not to mention the time, energy and money to maintain.

I don’t know how much money you have, but I didn’t get to where I am in life just throwing away $1000 whenever and wherever. I don’t know too many people that are willing to do that unless they need quick cash for an emergency. I know that the machines I want that are currently sitting in the corner of basements aren’t leaving unless they get what they paid. I’ve been very clearly told that. They can definitely afford to lose $1000 and not blink an eye over it. They know what they have and you will meet their price or it will be stored (probably improperly).

Yes, unfortunately I think you might be right.

I agree!

Lmao! There is one for sale in Innisfil. The guy selling it is a great guy! I just bought my Pole Position from him!

I’ve only ever sold one machine. C37 he was awesome to deal with! I was very fresh in the hobby! Looking back I should have lost money as opposed to coming out even. I know now what condition really is as opposed to thinking I had something better than I did. I was just used to playing in the wild not home environment. One day I’ll head out there with my kids to see it now!

Give him a call. He is great to deal with. He is opening a Bed and Breakfast or something along those lines so he is clearing everything out for that!

If you see something near me I’ll help you out.

Has anyone seen the Evil Knievel for $8900 on Kijiji?!

Lots of pins on Kijiji right now!

I’m going to sell a Space Mission asking $2500. I’ll make an ad when I get the chance to get the pictures

Kijiji playboy for sale am I wrong or is the ad a little bit off?

Hefner is gone but he lives on with his pinball, Data-east machine, owned since 2014, great for man-cave or be a collector, have no use for it so letting it live on in someone elses home, NOT needing to sell, NOT into trade, NOT taking offers on price, not willing to show in person till spring as its in storage, located in Lloydminster, willing to deliver to Edmonton or Calgary next summer for added price, $11000.oo firm

That is exactly how I took it! What a weird way to try to sell something. Why not wait until spring or summer to put it for sale? Who is going to pay that kind of money then wait until then to get it?

As long as the government doesn’t find a way to regulate it we should be fine.

Lol! True!

I rated my White Water with 10 across the board, Not because I want a top machine but because I love my machine. My rating was reported. It is pretty permanent in my collection! I think most Noobs have been playing these machines longer than they have been on Pinside. I can say when I started playing in the mid 80’s I really loved it but vacationing meant more than having a pin in my basement. I know that is the case for me. Every machine I see I throw a few loonies in and play. We are only noobs to owning the machines because of COVID. The guy I bought my White Water from had a MM for sale as well. I played both. Everyone knows someone with at least one or 2 machines in their basement.

I’m sorry to hear that. There are a few of us going through it. Really sucks! I would suggest you Look them up in the Pinside market. Add exchange.

Great guy as well!

Lol!

Heading to Peterborough Ont in the morning. Is the snow as bad as they are saying? I’m picking up an Asteroids arcade.

Yes, it makes me a little nervous. But I hope it will be worth it! Just want to keep an eye on the weather before I leave at 6am

Thank you!

I was a dealer at the casino in Windsor for 19 years. We were dealing Craps around the year 2000 and had people from Michigan believe that we had moose, polar bears, and actual igloos here(in Windsor). They believed that we have bear dumps (like The Great Outdoors) that you could sit in your car and watch them forage. One of the supervisors told them the truth.

Yes, We probably do know each other. When the interim casino (art gallery) was open we would go to Bubi’s quite a bit. Same with Acapulco Delight. It’s weird how so many think when you cross a river the climate changes.

Lots of machines on Kijiji. I won’t pay what they are asking. I can wait. 2 are on my wish list but I know the prices will drop soon.

Just scroll on the Acronym and it will bring up the game. As long as it’s underscored

I grew up with a guy who’s parents were filthy rich, didn’t matter the price you asked for what he wanted they bought it. I had a Brundy Nile Monitor(lizard) it was pretty rare to find(at the time). He kept TELLING me to sell it to him “Everything has a price” he still doesn’t speak to me to this day for not selling to him.

We don’t talk about Bruno!

For an American Hoser that lives on the border and is willing to pick up, yes it’s cheaper eh.

Z

Anyone in Toronto know if the Stranger Things Experience is still going? Is it worth it?

Thank you! My daughter and I are pretty big fans as well! I’m looking at taking her when school gets out.

I saw that! That is way too much! I can buy one in Michigan and pay $2500 less even with the exchange and tax. That’s not including shipping or gas I would save.

Even the prices are dropping on Pinside, so many games just sitting there waiting to be picked up. I think this will continue for quite a while. Most of the new purchasers from COVID have stepping back into their previous roles and just want to clear them out

I wrote a question about arcades and pins for sale on Kijiji. She called before I got an answer. I deleted it but you have to replace with something.

Her father passed and she was going to clear everything out. She is going to look into Pinside and KLOV for pricing

She had quite a few ads up (5-10) Championship sprint, Time Machine, Popeye (arcade) were the ones I was interested in but she also had quite a few pins, she said she was overwhelmed by the amount of people interested in the pins.

I hope she gets what they are worth
