    At 22 years of age. How the heck. Congrats, you have your work cut out for you.

    #4 8 years ago

    NICE HAUL!!! Joe

    #5 8 years ago

    That one photo with the truck loaded fooled me, thinking you stacked the cabinets on their sides.. LOL
    Yup its a big undertaking! Notch it up as one of life's great adventures.

    #6 8 years ago

    That Pink Panther looks so nice, super jealous!!!

    #7 8 years ago

    Yeah the pink panther looks nice! I played one at PINFEST and had fun with it.....would be cool to own one someday. Nice haul dude....enjoy!

    #8 8 years ago

    Holy wha!
    That's awesome!

    #9 8 years ago

    Pink Panther was the first thing I asked him about yesterday. After seeing the pictures I've had then Henry Mancini theme song stuck in my head. Man I grew up with that cartoon.

    And a Beat The Clock is cool, pretty rare.

    #10 8 years ago

    Nice collection

    #11 8 years ago

    You forgot to list High Roller. That's the best game of the haul!

    #12 8 years ago

    congrats....always fun to get big package deals!
    That PP looks pretty nice

    #13 8 years ago

    Cool post Stang.

    I'm guessing mom and dad are super pumped to have these at their house.

    #14 8 years ago

    There's a Jungle Lord not listed too.

    Where are you going to put all these things?!? I hope you have a large garage / workshop / barn!

    #15 8 years ago

    Wow! How long did that take?

    #16 8 years ago

    Jungle lord, high roller and one SBM were left out of the package. I left my house at 6am. I finished moving them for the night at 10 pm

    #17 8 years ago

    If you want to part ways with the sorcerer playfield from the project game im trying to find a candidate to send to canada to get redone, let me know.

    Nice score man!

    #18 8 years ago

    What did you score them for (if you want to comment on that)?

    Are the machines that don't say project fully working machines?

    Nice either way. I've had a 5 machine score once, but nothing like the classic op buyout or barn find. Well, a 10 machine deal once as well, but they were all low end beater projects - would not have done it now knowing what I know.

    #19 8 years ago

    You're 22 years old and according to your collections page you've owned 137 pins in the past? Seriously? I think your eyes are starting to turn brown...

    #20 8 years ago

    Young punk.......!!!........lol.......Joey

    #21 8 years ago

    the games that say nothing next to them are fully working machines. And yes I have had about 175 pinball machines before turning 23

    #22 8 years ago

    Well, if no one else will ask, how much? Of course it's your perogative not to say anything.

    #23 8 years ago

    I was going to congratulate you on being a homeowner at such a young age and then I saw this...

    Quoted from Blackbeard:

    I'm guessing mom and dad are super pumped to have these at their house

    Stop buying machines and get the hell out of your parent house.... LOLOL

    Just kidding, nice pickup...

    #24 8 years ago

    sell them and buy a house

    #25 8 years ago

    Some guys have all the luck...

    #26 8 years ago

    Always fun to see pics like these.

    #27 8 years ago

    That's a fat stack of cash in picture #4!

    #28 8 years ago

    congrats on the pickup.

    Is it sad that the only game I would be interested in is Raven. LOL

    #29 8 years ago

    Super exciting!! Congrats and have fun!

    #30 8 years ago

    killer find, was this a arranged bulk deal or was it just found out in the wild? really neat and the pics look great, so many great titles.

    #31 8 years ago

    For those who don't believe the number. I have been to his house 3 times and each time there is a completely different line-up. I don't know how he does it. I don't know where he finds them, but travels all over to get them. So I totally believe this number. He has told me he has had the same machine 2, 3, 4 times over in all his wheeling and dealing. I don't know when he has the time to play them.

    #32 8 years ago

    OK,i guess there will be a new pinball arcade in Hebron,this all can't be a single persons personal stash,could it???If you put all those pins in a arcade,you have your own business at 22,and what fun at that!What i wonder is ,where did he get the education to work on them??

    #33 8 years ago

    96stang >> are you also a Correctcraft fan?

    same name on another forum I used to mainly lurk at

    #34 8 years ago
    Quoted from hawkmoon:

    where did he get the education to work on them??

    Pinside! The internet! Where else! And I am working on moving out. It'll happen soon. The issue is my parents love it. They play all the time

    #35 8 years ago

    Heh, I always thought you were a guy. You're a little, blond haired gal with a pink shirt? Congrats on the haul

    #36 8 years ago

    Too bad the HRC wasnt included... it would be rolling out quickly.

    #37 8 years ago

    Great haul. Congratulations !

    LTG : )™

    #38 8 years ago

    Nice haul.

    I just noticed that the Gottlieb Time Line has a blue cabinet. Mine has a black cabinet. It's interesting to see the difference.

    #39 8 years ago

    Wow, congrats!!!

    Quoted from ZippyThePinhead:

    No, he is not kidding.

    #41 8 years ago

    So....the real question of course is what did you pay!

    #42 8 years ago

    I would love to hear the story of how this came to be.

    #43 8 years ago

    Pinside is kind of like the hospital. You go there and you can nearly always find somebody who's got it worse than you!

    #44 8 years ago

    Grats B!

    Now you really need to sell me that BK2K. (as if I had room).

    #45 8 years ago

    I paid a fair bulk buy price IMO.

    As for how it came to be, dumb luck. I had a pinball machine out at our tag sale a year ago. Guy said to me "Can I take your info, my boss has a ton" Well, a year later I get a email with a list of games. I said I'd buy them all and we hammered out a price. A tad more than I wanted to pay, and a tad less then he wanted to take, which IMO means we landed on the fairest price.

    Isn't there a saying that says that it's a good sale if both parties are unhappy.

    Quoted from woody24:

    Hmm... I'm unhappy I'm not getting this type of deal, does that mean it's for the best?

    #48 8 years ago

    Nice haul. Me and a buddy bought 21 from an op about 3 years ago. It's a ton of work but so worth it!!

    #50 8 years ago

    Let me know if you're interested unloading that Pink Panther.

    That's my next target on my Gottlieb hitlist.
