Quoted from jwilson:

That argument seems at odds with what you were saying about the Pinball Hall of Fame a few months ago, about how you'd run it differently - but it seems your way isn't working so you're going with basketball games. I guess Tim's way actually works.
It's nice to see some validation for him.

I've seen him talking a lot of things that are at odds with what other operators say. He also claimed the 'only operators paying 12k for a machine would be in NY and Cali'. Meanwhile I know 3 operators from the Midwest who all have Dialed In LE/CE and Batman66 LE, even 1 SLE.

Bunch of bologna trying to talk for all operators everywhere just because he can't hack it.

Quoted from ExtremePinball:

You better check yourself.

Or what? I'll be verboten from playing pinball at the illustrious NYNY? Remember this is an internet forum and keyboard fights get nobody anywhere.

Definitely not sorry. You said JJP and Stern have priced operators out of the market. Here's the quote

Quoted from ExtremePinball:

They've priced operators out of the market, and they're just pissing off collectors. I speak from the position of both.

I personally know 3 operators all with Dialed Ins and Batman66s ordered, including a BM66 SLE. I'm a collector and I'm not at all pissed about these prices. My WoZ RR was $10,000 shipped. These prices aren't new.

My point is, stop speaking for EVERYONE when you really meant "I have been priced out of the market, I am pissed off."

That's a great stock image of a Lambo, something we can certainly agree on.
