Prospect Heights, IL
I almost forgot about MGC coming up. Anyone in this thread going?
Anyone has a HOU Metallica Premium for sale asking around $5800 let me know. Maybe would let my BoP go in partial trade + cash.

Quoted from jellikit:$800 for a quick and hassle-free deal will take the Class of 1981 home. Feel free to PM with any interest or questions. Thanks!
Brad
Both the Keeney Bowl-O-Rama and Class of 1981 have been sold. Thanks again for all the positive thoughts and interest, both are appreciated.
Brad
Quoted from gweempose:I love that green color on TFTC! Quick question. How do you tighten those painted bolts without ruining the finish?
I used a zip lock baggie as buffer, Still had a couple twist but not too bad.
Just put my Twilight Zone up for sale officially.

Any of you strapping men free Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning to potentially help get a pinball machine up some stairs in S. Barrington? I will of course pay for your time/gas. I have a dolly and all materials ... just need some muscle. A neighbor of my parents have a machine that I will hopefully be able to buy.. but my brother-in-law (my go-to helper) is out of town. It's not a widebody so we got that going for us! Neighborhood is right next to the Arboretum (100 W Higgins Rd, Barrington, IL 60010).
Miami,
Sorry, getting too old don't want to risk injury, my dad's back was so bad at the end he looked like the letter L. I have been paying to have pins delivered, going up & out my son in law and son still help, another reason I tend to keep what I have, moving pins upstairs.
However, if there is a local Chicago area group that wants to buy an Escalara, I would like to be a partner.

I totally understand Bruce. Moving machines is definitely the worst part of the hobby. I still have flashbacks when I moved my Twilight Zone out of a basement with 20+ stairs with turns.
So far I have only had to go downstairs to basement... not looking forward to going upstairs if I move or sell/trade any pins.
Quoted from c508:going upstairs
that is the best part. I remember taking the black hole I bought up about 15 stairs it was fun 
Next time I have to move a game up a flight of stairs with a hairpin 180degree turn halfway up, I'll be pulling off the head and possibly even removing the PF. Took 3 guys about 20 minutes to get my Fishtales up.

Sounds like you need a better pin house. 
Nah I'm good at my place... back right up to a detached garage. This was going to pick it up from the sellers place.

Hi
I haven't been following this thread for sometime. Sorry if another Pinside is looking for a "1966 Bally Capersville" pinball machine here too and I am stepping in on their search. If no one else is looking and someone has one they are considering selling please PM me. Any condition.
Thanks. Mike

Good luck... Only working EM I ever owned... It was pretty cool.
Looking for CFTBL, High Roller Casino, Maverick, Judge Dredd, Jokerz, Baywatch, ..What else might you have - local preferred..Players condition is fine with me...
Have some very nice handguns would consider trading towards also, Wilson Combat, Kimber, H&K ETC
No pins to trade just moved back from MN and starting collection again - thanks

I do not want to be player 2
Quoted from Jaybird815:I do not want to be player 2
Better than player 4
Off topic a bit (no sharp daggers please) but looking to sell a very nice custom made shuffleboard table. Its 19'3 overall length but the good news is it can fit in almost any basement. The top comes off in two pieces. The main table come apart in 3 sections. Its got a rounded shelf on either end that can store items if needed. I've had it for over 10 years but the kids want an air hockey table. So I'd consider that as well as pins from 87 and newer. Really looking for NGG, I500, WWFRR, but would consider others as well.
I've always wanted a shuffleboard, and that one does look really nice. I just don't have any place for it to go. You really need a long straight wall for it to go against.
Quoted from ArkhamB:Anyone here getting the Space Shuttle that went up on Craigslist yesterday? Or is it going to a flipper?
Shuffleboard looks nice! I may be in the minority here, but I hate air hockey
Brian
Wondering about the ss myself. Killer price.
I sold half of my games at MGC and now I've got room for two!
Interested in the following:
Creature from the Black Lagoon, Diner, Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure, Junk Yard, Last Action Hero, Lord of the Rings, Medusa, Shadow, Swords of Fury
If you have any leads, please let me know.
Thanks!
I'm also looking for an inexpensive EM. They have a high Wife Acceptance Factor and now I'm starting to hear the call of the chimes.
