    Quoted from d0n:

    I just need pinball parts and don't want to jump through a crapload of bullsh*t to buy them. You and steve need to get a room where you can massage each others egos.

    If you haven’t figured it out yet, PBR is not for you. Steve will be just fine without you. So step away from the keyboard and go play your broken pinball machines.

    Quoted from DanQverymuch:But who am I to complain? If someone is happy satisfied with their old school system, undesirous of progress or improvement, and enjoys belittling people for not being able to find a part or its number on their website, thanks to its haphazardness and incompleteness, more power to them, I guess?

    Quoted from cottonm4:

    With 30K customers around the world I doubt he is losing any sleep if you decide you do not want to do business with him.

    There is your answer bub.

    Quoted from d0n:

    It's just money. Call marco and ask them how tough it was for them to sell me $201 worth of parts today.

    Troll. Not only did you OVERPAY with Marco’s markup, but you also lost the 10% discount with a PBR order over $ 100. You have proven PT Barnum correct simply because thinking is just too hard for you and too easy to click on pretty pictures.

    I have spent thousands of dollars with Steve over the years. I first met him at Expo 1998 when he still did the show circuit. I have evolved to a using a simple excel spreadsheet of the typical Bally parts with part number and price I need when I shop a new game. I then add in specific items like lane guides, targets or pop caps. The spreadsheet shows my running total so I know to add more to make the $ 100 minimum and 10% discount.

    I attach the file to my email order, get a confirmation email from Jimmy and the parts on on my doorstep 2 days later. Mail a check the next day.

    FOOKIN EASY.
