    Quoted from drypaint:

    We will do our best (between Phoenix and TFR) to keep all the new stuff locally available.

    I know this is an old quote but more Older SS or EMs please! Although it gets lonely in that back room

    Hey all,
    Hope everyone is recovered from Golden State.

    A while ago metal-mods gave me a package deal on on wedgehead backbox door and threw in an old Flying Carpet backbox he had with some spare parts inside. Thanks Jason!

    The backbox was separating and had a lot of damage to the plywood in the front and corners. After re-gluing it, filling major gaps and slimming it down a bit I decided to paint it and turn it into a chalkboard (Not an original idea. SteamVette beat me to it). I plan on gifting it to my favorite local spot when they re-open, The Flipper Room! Hopefully they can use it.

    I just freehanded the design to look period. I think it turned out alright. Anyhow, hope you all enjoy.

    Anyone have a lead on a Gottlieb Roller Disco? There was a non-working one on one of the sites a while ago that I cant find again (CL, letgo, offerup, etc). Anyone know if that one is still around? Looking for a project. thanks!

    Quoted from BorgDog:

    Might be a little far, but just saw one today on CL in Eugene, portland.craigslist.org link

    Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

    Two pins left to sell.
    Metallica Monsters Premium with COLOR DMD, shaker motor, and every Cliffy protector. $5900
    Bought new 2-2.5 years ago. Not an HUO machine, but still in great shape. Many of you have probably seen/played it at Phoenix Games. Cleaned monthly. Flippers rebuilt a few months ago. Playfield still looks good. Cabinet looks mint. 1 broken plastic. Sparky has a damaged foot, so throwing in a new sparky and also a new magnet core.
    Still figuring out the other one to sell.

    you end up closing on the cabin?

    I always loved how Bored as Hell those "College Queens" look on the playfield.

    Sheesh, that would look nice next to my C37. Dueling Ribbons!

    Quoted from JethroP:

    That's exactly what I did this morning. Found his home address and drove out there....with the camera rolling I knocked on his door. Wasn't sure what to expect. He wasn't expecting me. Told him I came for my circuit boards. He said yeah, ok and went and got them. That simple. Can't tell you how relieved I feel to get two non-working boards back!
    The guy is nice enough, but I wouldn't recommend him to anyone. He had my boards over a month and didn't fix them. And he wouldn't even return my phone calls. No excuses. No apologies.
    In the future I will be using the repair guys recommended on this site who are proven successful and timely.

    sheesh. had he done anything? was he waiting on something to come in?

    Don't forget to tell all your friend to check out https://pinballpickers.com[quoted image]

    He hounded me over 2 days to "buy something" last year when I casually asked about a price. I think the following tells you all you need to know about this guy:

    whats the condition of the one you are replacing?

    Missing paint, bubbling places. Here a pic.

    Doesn't look bad in the photo. Really any condition artwork from Morrison looks amazing. I have one too but mine is slightly better condition than that. Good luck on getting a repro. fantastic game.

    Quoted from Llabnip1972:

    Good morning. Fat J's Pin Wagon is finishing its second run to socal this morning. Thanks to some awesome navigation tips from pinsiders, it is going much smoother than last weekend. Thx Bluespin! Picked up a pin in Santa Ana yesterday and have one more stop before heading back up to the bay area. I am scheduled to go up to Portland next week to pick up an item but I'm still empty on the way up. Let me know if you need anything moved north. I may also have room for one item going east on the 80 towards Reno and Utah later this month. Thx for the support.
