That's wishful thinking on your part, Tom.

#13 11 years ago

Those look nice. You've got some great machines in your collection.

I am glad a good deal went to a good guy. Thanks for letting me shop with your money, LOL...

The search for a MB begins in 3,2,1,.....

Dave's a purist, not really a cosmetic mod guy. The AFM does have the backboard decal, clearcoated PF, and the Ung Saucers, so maybe he will change his tune...

#17 11 years ago

Nice. Send some a little further north. You guys have enough now.

#18 11 years ago

Welcome to "a title" collecting, addicting, and expensive

But fun, before you know you will be on the street corner ho'in out your services to make enough for the next pins!

#20 11 years ago

Talk about in one fell swoop! Very nice!

Dan

#21 11 years ago

#25 11 years ago

Overrated my arse!

Congrats, those two look great together.

#26 11 years ago

Just figured out who won the mega millions lottery last week.

#27 11 years ago

Great pick up! Makes you not want to go out anymore i bet.

#28 11 years ago

Nice score!

#29 11 years ago

coooool

#30 11 years ago

#32 11 years ago

great job dave, I love my amf , and will still looking for mm or mb. Guess this makes up for passing on totan. Top notch collection

send that WWind down south and then we will release some of the titles currently sentenced to 15 to Life in Dane county

#35 11 years ago

I honestly like both of these games but i never would have bought them at full market price. Ralph got me a deal as far as 2012 pricing goes. It was a no-brainer on my part.

I do not have deep pockets by any means. I am probably going to pick one of these as a keeper and send the other one packing. I don't know if i'll be able to bring myself to do so, but that's what i told the wife.

Thanks for all the kind words!

#36 11 years ago

That is what I told the wife when I bought pin #1, #2, and #3.

"I am just gonna play it for a while and then resell it and not lose any $."

"This one is such a good deal, I can buy it, play it, and then make some $."

"This one needs a good cleaning and some new parts and then I will dump it and probably even make a few bucks."

I already have sights on #4 and I am running out of new stories I can tell.

Dave > just sell me TZ and then you will be able to shift getting some dirty looks from your wife to getting dirty looks from my wife...

I have room for 6 comfortably and I really can't imagine selling one till I have no more room and want something new. Luckily my empty pocketbook has limited my current spending.

#37 11 years ago

Congrats Dave! Two great games at once!!!

#38 11 years ago

Good Score Dave! Those will keep you busy for a long time!

#39 11 years ago
Quoted from ralphwiggum:

Dave's a purist

i think "cheapskate" is a better word.

#40 11 years ago

That's a heck of a pickup Dave! Congrats! Most people (including myself) would be thrilled to have even one of those games in my lineup. Looks like the next pinball party is at your place

#41 11 years ago

I want

#42 11 years ago

Glad you finally got off your wishy washy butt and got those pins, Dave. You've manage to make your collection better than mine in one fell swoop. You suck! The downside of this (for you) is that you might have to put up with me staying at your place a little longer this year! Congrats!

He already has a TZ, unless that no longer qualifies as an "A" title since it only sells for a paltry 4-5k these days.

#43 11 years ago

ZIIIIIIIINNNNNGGGG!!! Nice pickup, great machines, grats!!!

#44 11 years ago

Don't forget the little people on your way to the pin-top, your "Royal Heinie"...

(Congrats! )

#45 11 years ago

congrats Dave, enjoy!

#46 11 years ago

So you don't need your BSD anymore, right?

#47 11 years ago

Wow Dave Nice scores!

"This one is such a good deal, I can buy it, play it, and then make some $."
"This one needs a good cleaning and some new parts and then I will dump it and probably even make a few bucks."

How sad - I've used all those lines with my wife!

The one that really works is "But the kids just love them - and it gets them off the video games!

#49 11 years ago

Congratulations, Dave!

For someone who was talking about getting out of the hobby, you sure decided to dive back in with both feet!

#50 11 years ago
