    I am looking for a Ghostbusters and a Deadpool premium. If you have either one let me know how much you want for them I’m also willing to just pay cash.

    Possibly willing to trade one of the following games. Will add cash if there’s a price difference. I have an Aerosmith premium, Hobbit Smaug gold, Metallica premium, Star Trek next generation, Mandalorian pro.

    Hey there everyone! Pin Wagon update. It's been one month since I picked up the reigns of the Pin Wagon and it has been a blast. Started off moving a candy cab across the bay. Followed that up with 3 trips down south and a stop in Sac. That was awesome because I was able to check out the Thunder Valley poker tournament after the drop off. Chopped three ways for a grand. Nice. Last week I hired the Pin Wagon myself and took a trip to pick up a pin in the SLC with a stop in Reno both ways. Lots of fun. I'm booked til after Thanksgiving but let me know if you need anything after that. Just a heads up. I will be less likely to take jobs north and east of CA until springtime. I don't like the snow. Thanks for all the positivity. I couldn't do this without all of the awesome pinheads out there.

    Well it’s been a while since I’ve sold anything here.
    Is it required that the item be linked to a marketplace ad these days?
    I am helping a friend in Discovery Bay sell his pins.

    I have to preface this with my life has been cursed with all kinds of problems recently and I’m pretty bogged down.
    That being said, I will certainly reply to replies or PMs but if you want the pictures it might take a few days for me to dig them up… it’s been several months and I take lots of pictures of all kinds of nonsense on a daily basis LOL.

    I’m not sure what today’s NorCal prices are, so I’m just going off of what the Pinside machine database indicates.

    Great condition Stern 2007 Spider-Man. It has the subway train and building mods that go over quite a distance over the return ramps. Those mods are pretty pricey from what I understand. It’s got upgraded speakers in it, or at least a better woofer. Shaker motor. If I recall the armor is Chromed out. The side rails are the aftermarket Ritchie ones with the web pattern at the flipper buttons. LEDs I believe.
    $5400

    HUO very low plays Metallica Pro. Upgraded speakers, or at least a better woofer. There might be more to it but I don’t recall. A really good looking machine.
    $5500

    Dr Dude . The numerical displays are perfect and probably aftermarket. There are a couple plastics with little bits broken off. I believe you can get some of those such as the slingshots. I think there’s probably a light or two out, and I think it has LEDs.
    Overall good shape for a machine of it’s age.
    The price listed on the Pinside “Machines” data base seems pretty high. But it’s been along time since I’ve bought the machine that era. Maybe they went way up in price from 10 years ago?
    $2900 but definitely willing to take less.

    I’m doing this these descriptions from my faulty memory, but if a serious inquiry pops up, my pictures will certainly convey what’s what quite accurately.

    Thanks!

    Quoted from Kerry_Richard:

    Don't forget your cost to ship it to them... Armor is heavy & bulky to ship!
    I've had 5-6 sets of armor done at MAAS Brothers in Livermore. They charge approx $150 set. Set being: 4 legs, glass lock-down bar, 2 side rails, 2 back-box hinges and about a dozen bolts. This is excluding coin door, I've not done any coin doors.
    NOTE: They are temporarily closed due to Covid-19

    Kerry,

    Bringing up an older topic. I contacted MAAS and they are reopened for business. Their hours are from 6 AM to 2 PM and will take walk-ins.
    I am hoping to bring some parts to them for Powder Coating to see how they do things.

    Thanks for the hint sir!

    Going through a bunch of stuff (finally unpacking after moving over five months ago). I somehow have an extra, brand new sheet of standard width tempered glass. $30 local pickup in Davis. I’ve also got two used sheets of standard width untempered glass free for the taking. I’ve got a bunch of other stuff listed in the marketplace with more to come.

    Darn! Well since I was the one that just suggested them again, I apologize. I was told over the phone just to walk in with the stuff.
    Since I'm getting a pile ready to get powder coated, I was hoping to use them.

    Hey all! Haven't posted to Pinside in a very long time. I posted this Wanted Ad in the Marketplace, but bluespin recommended I post here as well. (I hope Turlock qualifies as Nor Cal. )

    I'm looking for a good used coin door assembly for my Gottlieb Mibs restoration. The door shell itself doesn't need to be aesthetically perfect or anything (or even nice), but it needs to be complete with all the internal parts. It's alright if the internal parts are dirty, but no corrosion. The coin door assembly doesn't need to be from a Mibs specifically, but it should be from a late '60s to mid-'70s Gottlieb. Thanks for any help!

    #7184 2 years ago

    Nice Hobbit Smaug Gold Special Edition up for sale, $11,500 or best offer. Recently fully shopped, all plastics, ramps, building pieces removed from playfield for a deep clean, 100% new playfield plastics installed, all new clear Titan rubbers, all lights, switches checked, connections checked, Smaug servo replaced, slings rebuilt with new mounts for both axes and new axe pieces and stickers. Cleaned and polished everything. Beautiful machine with hammered gold armor.

    Will consider west coast trades, modern sterns, pro or premiums. Feel free to offer other titles not listed for trades but my favs tend to be modern Sterns, Jersey Jack machines, and popular 90's titles.

    Looking for Deadpool, Ghostbusters, Wizard of Oz, but feel free to send me offers. Will do 2 for 1 trades, add cash, take cash, lol

    That Smaug is very tempting...

    Off beat question for the home users...

    Has anyone taken their insider connect kit out of godzilla and put into another game?

    The apron might need to be swapped, not sure if there would be any real challenges. I'd like to put it on different games for a month or so each to see the achievements and get the mode on Iron Maiden that appears to only be on insider connected.

    If you mean madness multiball (on Maiden), that was available on the prem/Le before the connect.

    Quoted from dsuperbee:

    I have a Pro, I think it's new to the Pro, but possibly only with the insider connected.
    I also have a Mando and AIQ so the achievements would be a nice to have between the games (even if only for a couple months on each)

    I am going to try it, why not? LOL
    My AIQ Pro has a hole under the decal for the scanner and the port has a blank ethernet inside the port. If it seems to work, I'll just peel off the decal.
    I figure Mando will have the same hole. Hopefully Iron Maiden will have something similar

    V1.10.0 - November 18th, 2021
    =============================
    - Insider Connected - achievements added. see achievement list on https://insider.sternpinball.com
    - Can I Play With Madness - mode has now been added to the game if you are connected to Stern IC

    Sweet Baby Jesus!!! THANKS!!!
    Perfect timing, my cutters were in my hand about to start removing zipties,but this is way better than moving the scanner.

    #7191 2 years ago

    Stern is probably scheming pretty hard at how to stop this, but I don't have much faith in their intelligence

    #7192 2 years ago

    I wonder if you couldn't take the device and make it plug in portable?

    #7193 2 years ago

    I bought the dongle, 16gb card, Rj45 splitter, Rj45 coupler for roughly $45 after tax with free Amazon prime shipping. I need to buy or find ethernet cables to do the job (maybe $15?)

    Each additional game from that point on is only going to cost $30 + ethernet cables. Only 1 game will be able to connect at a time and there will be multiple ethernet cables running from GZ to other games, LOL

    This is saving a home user $140 and doesn't buy an apron or the scanner. If someone could source the scanner for cheap, this would be more of a ideal "cheap DIY mod"
