I have noticed some pins on EBay for sale by them. Does anyone know anything about them? Are they on Pinside?
Thanks

He's supplied quite a few pins to public locations. He sounds comparable to GAP
Neil is a super nice guy and a member of my local pinball league. He also is the operator of all the pins at the Headquarters barcades in Chicago. I would not hesitate to do business with him.
It is me. I don't really post anything for sale here on Pinside. Truth is we are a hard group to please and I generally have higher prices than any of us are willing to pay. I just went through some of my inventory I need to dump that I won't be using for locations. All of the games I have are routed, some routed to death like the TMNT and others are still very nice like the AVLE listed. All games are gone through and shopped, but again they are routed games. If you have any questions about any of the games please ask, I'll be happy to answer whatever you need or if you want to stop by your welcome to check stuff out in person. Its not that I won't sell to Pinsiders but again I am just as critical as the rest of us here and cheap on top of it. My games are generally not the target of this group.
Thanks Razorbak!
The SMB that is up there is alright, the TMNT is pretty routed my friends. It has wear that was touched up with paint pens in a lot of places. The game plays well, but again some aesthetic issues. SF2 is okay, not as bad as TMNT. I figured for 1k if they sell I will pretty much take a loss by the time damn ebay takes their fees, but usually they sell for more on ebay. I was just getting sick of never listing anything for sale and wanted to make some room. Again, if any pinsider is interested, just send me a message, I can get you additional pictures or if you want to stop by that is cool too. I put an ad on craigslist as well, about 30 games on there. Some others l can't think of off the top of my head that are available as well. Some of the prices are high as there are titles I really don't want to move as well as some of them NIB at MSRP not to violate any Stern policies. I really do like trades!
Here is the link.

I am not sure how to make it a link that I could rename so I just copied the site address.
My wife and I are heading over to Headquarters this weekend (River North location). Any chance I could get an updated list of the games available? Seems like the Pinball Map app can be wrong at times.
Thanks!

Good prices
I'll see if I can have someone at the bar text me with what is on the floor at Rivernorth. If you haven't grabbed a bite there, I recommend it if you have time. Enjoy the location. Report back positive or negative, I appreciate feedback even when it's bad. Can always get better!
Quoted from simplykind:I picked up a nice JD last year from Neil at a very fair price. His tech rocks as well and had the game playing flawlessly. Definitely would do business with again...
very kind of you, thanks and hope your enjoying it!

Awesome! Excited to finally show my wife Wizard of Oz. That game is just amazing to look at, let alone play!
Quoted from dirtbag66:Any chance they have a Simpson's Pinball Party?
I know there is one there, I'm just not positive its on the floor.
My wife and I just left Headquarters. Great selection of games. But I have to say...
TURN THE MUSIC DOWN!!!
Granted, we went on a very busy Saturday night, but when a good amount of the games are based on rock bands (Metallica, AC/DC, KISS), and one of the features is you can pick the music you want to hear, it's kind of pointless when nothing but terrible music is being driven into your head with a sledgehammer. I couldn't even concentrate. Played about five games (mostly Wizard of Oz), then left.
A bit disappointed. Maybe I'll go back when it isn't so busy.

Sorry it was so loud. This is a common complaint I hear. I complain about it myself but get out voted on the topic. Something that would be a huge help would be dropping them a line as a suggestion. Once they get enough complaints about it, they may finally look at things differently. Friday's and Saturdays are always crowded and it can be annoying to deal with. Hope you can make it out during the week and it's a little quieter.
