Awesome, go hit it up. Only arcade in town with a DE Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

I also hear they have a new Turtles and Avengers Infinity Quest.

I believe he sold that when the new one came out.

Aww, boo haha... Some of those older games are easy to sell, so it makes sense. I put a whole lot of time in on the Back to the Future there one summer before it sold. I miss that game too!

Yeah, shit like this ad infuriates me on a daily... There are never any pins on this side of the country being sold for what they're actually worth.
What grinds my gears even more are the idiots who pay these prices for thrashed shitboxes like this, and are destroying my (our) hobby...

Status: Not sold: Decided to keep game

There was a story here on Fox 10 News. I grabbed a pic of my TV when it came on, it was about how this whole quarantine has made Pinball more popular than ever and people are buying them up left and right.

People pay these prices that’s why they list them like that. I got no problem paying for something if it’s good but I’m not paying top dollar for average. I don’t need it that bad.

It’s not just pins, look at the price of houses right now. I wanted to buy, but no thanks. I’ll just wait for the next crash. If it goes up forever, oh well haha. I still put a lot away in savings either way.

You know there is another potential housing issue on the horizon when we start hearing "creative" financing commercials on the radio and TV once again...

40 million Americans facing evictions going to create a massive domino effect.

This economy is a house of cards. A storm is coming

While that may be true, these prices were the same even 2 years ago! And who's paying these prices now? The same whiney people who are also preordering $1100 iPhone 12's while waiting in food-bank lines, and claiming they cant pay their rent?

Lol I don’t know about all that

I don’t know if that’s a pop shot at guys like me or not, but I have a GNRLE on order and coincidentally an iPhone 12 on order. But, I haven’t bought a pin in 1 1/2 years and just sold my acdc. Oh and My current iPhone is a 7 (32mb) lol. I didn’t even know iPhone 12 was out, mine just seriously needed updating for what I do so worked out great I suppose. As for the last comment, I’m not complaining I can’t make rent - still thankfully employed, so maybe I don’t fit your demographic? Lol.

That said, here’s the Fox News story for any that missed it:
https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyle/coronavirus-leads-to-spike-in-pinball-popularity

By the way I missed out on a nice Tales From The Crypt on offer up like 2 weeks ago for 3k

Idk if that sold or it was just taken down but if you listed it and it didn’t sale I’ll take it

I always wonder when those ads come up way overpriced if they ever actually get it or anything close. I can understand if someone doesn’t know and lists it high but over time you’d realize the market isn’t there and lower the price. But maybe somebody else that doesn’t know either will pay it. I’ll gladly sell my NBAFB for 5 grand and buy something new but I could never bring myself to list it for that.

Sprinkle it with some Laker-hype mods and the right suck...err...buyer may come along. You never know!

Nope, you dont appear to fit the description just because you ordered a new iPhone. Glad to hear that your job wasn't affected by covid!

I have a stock Star Trek Pro that comes with a new plastic set and a Slugfest I would like to trade. Both games work perfectly and are in good condition. I am open to DMD and newer games. AIQ and ACNC are at the top of my trade list and I can add cash for the right deal. Let me know if you are interested, I'll probably put them up in a couple days.

Thanks!

Got positive feedback

Thinking about selling/trading my super nice Robocop, documented HUO with the original sales receipt. Mostly interested in a similar condition Johnny Mnemonic, Whirlwind, or maybe Road Show.

Was going to put up my JJP POTC LE soon. Original owner, HUO. Comes with a few mods. Will post pics but it looks pristine.

It makes me sad typing this, but I admit after 2 years I just don't play it as much as I used to.

LoL I don't play mine at all lately but they sure are purdy to look at! Also didn't stop me from ordering a JPPrem. I must just like knowing they are there in case I need them

I get a lot of joy when guests get to play them.

Hey guys I’m looking to move my Star Wars cockpit arcade machine. Game monitor is not the amplifone 25 inch it’s the 19 inch vector monitor. Monitor has been recapped this year. Game works cabinet is ok. Marquee glass is nice. Looking for $3500 pm me for more info

My brother might be interested in this, im local also. ill reach out and check

Looking to see if there is any local interest for a HUO TNA. Original owner, excellent shape. Includes plastic protectors, inner art blades (small tears in the right side from the playfield being lifted but have replacements decals for both sides), shaker motor, side rail lighting kit, knocker, target decals, TNA cassette tape. Looking to possibly trade for DP Premium or sell for $6200. PM if interested. Thanks!

Interested in acquiring a Deadpool Premium if anyone is looking to sell. Let me know if you have one and want to move it. Thanks

I appreciate the link. I believe I have played some of your pins on location around town at some of these location over the past year? Diner, Space Invaders, Corvette

Had fun playing. :thumbs-up:

Shame about D&D closing up though. :-/ Think they mentioned they might re-open a new location in the future? :shrug:

Very cool. Yeah, we were all bummed to hear about D&D. I know everyone has their own comfort level right now, but when the world is a little more normal feel free to come on out to an event. Even if you don’t want to play we’d love to get to know another local pinhead.

I’m going to be listing my Lasercue soon. I need to get the Gi lights back working but it will be for sale. Game plays fine otherwise. Includes a NOS play field and a BG resto backglass. Original is ok with some flaking at edges. Play field in the machine is pretty decent, as well as the plastics. Asking $1600 for everything.

Anyone selling Attack From Mars remake or original?

Hi All,
I just wanted to let this group know that I'm selling my 1966 Bally Loop the Loop. It has been in our family since 1970. This machine is in great shape and fully functioning, but it just does not get played much. So, it's time to pass this on to another good home.

Like I said - the game is great condition, fully functioning, new rubbers, original schematics and few extra plastics.
Only a few items to call out:
1) The spinning motor works, but it takes a moment to start up. May need cleaning?
2) One piece of plastic is broken and unfortunately I do not have a spare
3) Another piece of plastic is cracked, but I don't think it is that noticeable. I do have a spare, but it is a little yellowed with time.
4) Some wear on the shooter lane/trail

Asking $1,000

Thank you,

I had not heard that D&D was closing--that is a major bummer. I interviewed the original owners and wrote an article about them for PinGame Journal not too long after they opened--very cool people who picked a great location. Constance and Robert are also nice folks, hope they do open another spot. Hope Cobra is still in biz.

Cobra is still doing their thing. They were closed for a little bit longer than other places overall. I think they were trying to avoid the potential of an open, close, open, close situation.

My 10-pin location is open, but my 3-pin location has the games off.

There is also a new 9-pin location on the northwest side of the area. That’s been put together by a very cool trio of pinheads.

So the Tucson scene is certainly alive, but the (potentially temporary) loss of D&D is a pretty big blow.

I am probably going to get one of those Voodoo or Invisiglass (I haven't figured out which yet) 2-packs shipped to my place. I only need one piece though.

Anyone want to split it with me?

Hey guys I listed a Skateball project in the classifieds. NOS glass, cpr playfield and plastics go with it

I heard that someone from AZ picked up the walking dead premium with topper in San Diego. Was that someone on this thread?

I was strongly considering doing the drive myself.

Thanks all in advance for your advice.

Begininng to think about making a NIB purchase, but uncertain which distributors are recommended in the area. Any recommendations?

What manufacturer/title?

JJ at GEX and Trent and Tilt are great guys. I highly recommend both..

JJP, Chiacgo, or American.

Decided to keep.

Anyone looking for a star trek pro or a slugfest? Hit me up.
Looking for trades or sale. Thanks!

Anyone interested in Walking a Dead Translite for trade for a different one?

I am looking for a Scared Stiff if anyone wants to part with theirs...

Hey guys. I have the itch for a bk2k to add to my collection. Any leads let me know thanks

Anyone on here buy the MotorDrome Ballys pinball on Craigslist yesterday? Owner listed it with a few issues. I was going to look at it but decided not to.

Just saw three games loaded on truck last night on freeway, not pins but one was T2 two player gun video game

I've got a new/unstalled spike shaker motor (rev c) and knocker kit, both from pinball life. Sold my machine before I got around to installing these. $60 for the set. Cleaning out the garage

I've also got a few DMDs I could let go. One from a Tron that was never used (well, ok, 10 games before I started working on Eli's mod), and one from a HUO Dirty Harry. $80 each.

Darkwing PM sent about the shaker.

Shaker/Knocker kit has sold, thanks for the interest all. Still have the two DMD's if interested. $80/ea.
