    Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

    Your pin is sitting at $6900 with no takers. I offered $6500. You did not have the courtesy to respond.
    You also tried to flip a restored Fish Tales for $6000 that I had just sold you for $4200 earlier this year. You acted like you wanted it, but apparently you just wanted to flip it.
    I don't recall bidding on anything else of yours and certainly won't in the future as you are now on my Bad Seller and Bad Buyer list.

    I mean maybe he decided he didn’t like the Fish Tales but yeah raising it $1800 seems crazy. $6500 is absolutely a solid offer.

    I am in the Sonoma County area, I need to make room so selling a few games... everything works.. Twilight Zone (lots of new parts, coils and flippers all rebuilt, clean, new clock enclosure, color balls, lighted gumball, upper pf magnets works great, faded cabinet), Star Trek next generation (shoots perfect, color dmd, led full upgrade, exceptional cabinet art and overall condition, game is a 9 out of 10, I’m pretty sure it has hd glass from the looks but could never verify it), Star Wars pro (mint huo with mods), and have 9.5 out of 10 restored no fear $3500 listed here (led with mods). I’ll come back to post prices when I have thought about it but let me know if you’re interested.

    Added over 3 years ago:

    Twilight Zone is gone. I have a mint huo star wars $5300 or trade for TMNT or other modern stern. Will add for Premiums. Selling the STTNG with a nice all original cabinet, really nice playfield, IMO 9.5 out of 10 can send very detailed pics. $5600 with color dmd.

    #6473 3 years ago

    I forgot to add that I also would be interested in TMNT premium or Star Trek Premium or LE for trades.

    Hey fellow Norcal pinheads. I thought I would drop a tip for anybody looking for a really good Pinball mechanic in the San Francisco Bay area. Sugartown Pinball has been wonderful to me and my pins. Colin has done a full restore on my no fear and been out to do many repair or maintenance work on my sterns, Williams and gottlieb pins. He does really good work, gives great advice, and has reasonable prices. Could not recommend a better guy. Sugartown pinball +1 (925) 788-8577.

    Anyone in Northern California in or near Sonoma County or the Bay Area own a Mandalorian Pro and willing to let me measure and fit mods for it?

    I've been a modeler, maker and designer and diy hobbyist for a long time. Started out just adding existing toys to games, then designed and/or source pieces for a few new things myself. I'm looking to turn this into a small business. I realized too late that regardless of what pin I want I should buy pros to get them first, too late on this one.

    I have a premium on order but am looking for someone to allow me to come by and do the measuring and photo taking for some custom high end mods for the game. Ideally I could also return with mods for test fitting. I would be willing to gift the kind pinhead free mods for their game when they are completed. Plans include a foundry for that scoop and more. I'm in Santa Rosa, in Sonoma County so the closer the better.

    Send me a PM if interested and let me know what city you are in. Also just in general looking to meet other local pinheads.

    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.

    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

    Anyone know a guy named Kerry that lives in San Francisco (right in San Francisco in Forest Knolls area) who is a collector? Guy has friends who play pinball because he said his Stargate is at a friends right now.

    Anyway I bought a $9k game on May 23rd from him and apparently his friend took the original apron by accident in a box of other stuff, he tells me via text when my friend is picking it up from him that he will ship it to me because its with his buddy. On the 27th he said he just got it back and would mail it. Texted him on Mon Jun 6th, nothing. Texted early today, nothing. Called, went to voicemail.

    It has a crappy after-market modded one in it now. The apron he has is powder-coated to match the game. I didn't even bitch one of the legs was bent to hell and guy didn't disclose it. If you know him pass this on. I just want the apron dude.

    He texted me and said he was just out of town. Thanks for the help

    Quoted from Kerry_Richard:

    BTW: this pinball deal is not from me.
    I know a lot of pinball guys here in the Bay Area. However, I didn't know of another Kerry here tho.
    Good luck with getting this sorted out.

    Not Danville...

    Right in San Francisco.

    #7541 1 year ago

    Thanks for the reply so far guys. I’m hoping that someone will see this and he will hopefully just resolve this by shipping it to me.

    I figured out his name is Kerry Mcclendon. Anyone know him?

    #7549 1 year ago
    Quoted from CashMoney:

    Doesn't look like he's on Facebook...
    Did a google search and found a Kerry McClendon in SF on Linkedin:
    https://www.linkedin.com/in/kmcclendon/
    Sounds like this is your guy. Definitely looks like a guy that wouldn't give you a pinball apron.
    [quoted image]

    My friend who picked it up confirmed this is the guy

    Added 22 months ago:

    Guy has resolved it I don’t really want his name out there I feel bad it won’t let me edit it.

    About to list two HUO pins that have been in my collection for sometime. PM me if interested. Pickup is near Santa Rosa, CA.

    I have someone that delivers in most of the Bay Area for $200-300 if you don’t want to move it.

    2005 HUO mint Simpsons Pinball party, 2nd owner, 600 plays, mint condition plastics, ramps, playfield, etc. No fade, no button wear, looks nearly new. Just fully shopped out, replaced all titan rubbers, lots of cools mods with Color DMD. Lit speakers, nuclear speakers, treehouse, working sparky mini tv, nuclear mod, lamp mod and more. About $950 in extras included.

    $8500

    HUO Ironman classic, just shopped out, all new red titan rubbers. Ironman w led mod, war machine with led and gun mod, missle mods, arc reactor mod. Not sure on the number of plays on this one as it came wiped but it has a very clean playfield and given the ramp condition I think it was played lightly.

    $5500

    Iron man is gone... I have a little wiggle room on the Simpsons price

    Anyone interested in a minor project Freddy? Everything works, we removed the glove but have the parts (typical broken blades). Cab is in great shape. We bought full flipper rebuild kits, new souls wall, diverter, tmoulding, stickers and more. Freddys head works along with everything else, just the glove. Also includes a really cool shooter knob of a freddy head. Never got the time. $3500 or bo

    Anyone close to Sonoma County own an AC/DC Pro? Or know someone that owns one? I’m looking to give away a train mod to replace the photo in exchange for being able to fit it to the game and photograph it.

    Anyone interested in a players condition Stargate? Plays, there is a rubber in the rear of the game broken near the back of the pyramid, probably needs them all replaced. Playfield wear no protector. Cabinet is pretty good. No electronic issues. Includes lots of extra parts like coils and flipper rebuild kits. My buddy has it in Santa Rosa and he’s not on pinside, it’s the only one he has owned. Probably needs a good shop. $2500

    I have a Stargate pin. Great cabinet, players condition playfield with bad wear around typical spots on gotleibs, everything works, including the alien and the pyramid. There is a rubber in the back of the pyramid that is broken that allows the ball to get stuck in a place it shouldn’t so it needs maintenance. Two years ago replaced rubbers we could get to and flippers and switches that weren't working.

    Stargate $2500 located in sonoma county, PM me if interested
