Did you ask KHL yet?? I’d just bump you’re original post if you’re asking the same question...
Your request is somewhat unique and you haven’t been here that long w/unknown location — getting pinsiders to rent you machines with that little info isn’t super likely. Just saying..
Would I be interested in loaning an expensive game to someone I don’t know for an extended period of time? Probably not.. if I knew you or you had people vouching for you here that might be different..
Cheers, no I don’t know who that is i’m Actually looking for a friend that lives in Wilsonville Oregon , i’d Was really looking for a local Oregon based amusement hire place or pin distributor that people on here could recommend , I wouldn’t expect to be hiring a someone’s personal machine ...but it seems no one wants business lol - kidding folks . But seriously my friend would be happy to pay all upfront & bond etc etc .
Bump ....

Typically operators here in the States don't want to bother with short time rentals as the money made is not worth it! Also, if you get a operator to rent you machines you probably are going to get less then desirable themes that are routed. I guess it would all depend on how long of a time-frame your friend is wanting to rent. If it's a long period he may be better off buying titles he wants and reselling them down the road! Just a thought!

This is inaccurate. There are companies that cater to this and offer the latest and greatest for rent. They are generally rented out for parties and events, not long-term. I don't know if there are any companies like this near you. Try Google.

I have encountered this at least half dozen times as when I travel I typically try to get a machine or two. More times then not an operator will tell me "it's not worth my time". Times I was able to get them I wound up with titles like Lethal Weapon, Baywatch and even an EM game.
There are places in some larger cities that will rent games but this guy is in Wilsonville which has a population of 25k. 30 min south of Portland so may be able to find someone in Portland to do it!
