Ca prices are always higher believe me I know I have been doing Pinball stuff since 1989, I am checking nationwide as I ship all the time the restore work I do for customers out of state.
Checking everywhere possible, of course going to check Ca. as well since it's easiest Thanks CosmoKramer or posting those prices from a month or 2 ago, I just bought a Funhouse 2 weeks ago locally here in San Diego for 3k from a known Pinsider and great collector! I know what games cost and Banning was its own story for sure! Hahaha

Chris Fox does some Reno runs out of Ca. Hit him up, best local shipper around!

Completely agree - I've used Chris several times in the past, but he hasn't responded to my messages. I've also learned there are some other awesome folks offering shipping services. Hoping to avoid using STI, but may need to consider that as an option.

I will say STI/Beltman has been beating pins up lately I have 2 in here with claim damage from last week! They don't have enough drivers, I spoke to Michelle over there because it took 35 days for a pin from here to a customer in New Mexico and I was shocked! She said not enough drivers so stuff is sitting in warehouses all over the place! Maybe waitna few months if you can before shipping if you can't find anyone else

Thinking of selling my F-14 Tomcat. Newly bulletproofed boards, all new rubbers and plastics, all lights except flashers replaced with LEDs and will include the right side of the stencils from Pinball Pimp in case you ever need them, as well as the old plastics in case you want them for some reason.

Update on my pin moving adventure and my deadpool premium for sale.
The pin moving is coming along nicely. The first victim is going from Hayward to Salinas this weekend. Let me know if you want to hop on board and I may be able to fit you in. Otherwise this will be a solo trip close to home. I would say wish me luck but I'm already the luckiest guy I know so I won't hog up all the luck

As for dp premium. I'm sorry but I keep forgetting that I secured a pre order for a topper. I'm going to keep it til I get to enjoy the topper for a bit and then sell it for 20k with the rare topper. I will let you dissect the truth from jest in that . Either way I got to keep dp till I get the topper. Thx for all the inquiries

Was it charcoal black from fire damage? Who is this pinsider? Does he have any other games for sale?

PM me if you have a Deadpool premium or Ghostbusters premium for sale.

Looking for a Bad Cats backglass somewhere in California, northern CA preferred but I do drive to the LA region every so often as well.

Thanks for any help!

Organic mattresses are on the table as trade towards high end pinball machines (I obviously will be throwing cash in). Collector quality only not interested in routed games.

I manufacturer natural mattresses in the north bay for the past 14 years and figured there might be someone in here that wants to trade a machine for amazing sleep for the next decade.

pm me for more info. I also have a 720 and a Paperboy arcade if anyone wants those in a trade. No I am not joking.

Fat J's Pin Wagon is ready to roll. Contact me if you have any pins needing transport. I will be around CAX on Saturday evening and Sunday if needed. Also heading up to Reno next week with room for an item on the trip up. Probably not on the back down though as I will be full once I get to Reno, maybe room for one pin coming back . Thx everyone for you interest and support.

I found a Williams Indy just need a Funhouse now! Anyone out there have one they will let go?

Hey Pinheads,

I've been doing light restorations on arcade cabinets for the last year and a half. Light body work and full art packages. I am now working on installing new decals on an Indiana Jones and pretty happy with the results so far. If any of you are interested in seeing some pics/having work done shoot me a message. I'm located in the Bay Area.

I have never even heard of an organic mattress.

Putting out feelers for a Devil Riders I might have for sale. PF: 9+, CAB: 6+, BG (mostly transparent by design): 7, HEAD PLASTICS and MOTORCYCLE GUY and NEON: 10. Works 95%. The right outlane save flipper coil locks on. Most likely a tranny on the mpu/sdb combo, but I noticed that messing with the connector to the coils occasionally fixes it, so... For now, I have the wire for that coil disconnected so it's playable except for that right save which you never can hit anyway (LOL). Everything else works as intended. Might need a few switches adjusted to make it more player-friendly. Too many other projects to have messed with it further.

Fun game... when it ain't kicking yer ass which is 90% of the time and summa the best callouts and taunts in pinball. Still has Italian operator tags and instruction cards.

Pics soon.

Trade for an Escape from the Lost World? Heavy Metal Meltdown?

At this point, we're just confirming what all the other regional for-sale threads are saying about Californians.

Long shot here, but does anyone have a source for naphtha in SoCal?
Planning on clearing an em playfield.

Camp stove fuel usually = naphtha. Test on a discreet corner if you’re unsure. Otherwise, you can usually get it in quarts through woodworking supply places like Woodcraft.

I sent you a DM

I got some from there, although it was a few years ago. It was nowhere on the shelves though. I had to "ask for it". You know, like asking for the MJ hiding behind the counter in the coffee shops in Amsterdam. They didn't bat an eye though, just brought it right out to me. I bought 2 cans and still have it.

Additional edit-at that time, I did check out all of the usual potential sources - Home Depot, Lowes, etc. None of them had it.

Anyone go to this estate sale and see how much this Bally Skyrocket is? (pics 63-65)
https://estatesales.org/grasons/sale/1969713/gallery

I got some on Amazon. No issues with shipping to CA.

I was trying to buy it. Seller wanted $500-600 for it and it sold first thing today.

Just ordered some naphtha on Amazon (sunnyside brand). So far so good through check out. Will keep you posted.

I REALLY NEED an Interflip Dragon.
Please tell me one of you has one for me!
Please?

going to move my star trek le to buy something new .See my ad on pinside

.

My local Lowes said they had to pull it from their shelves, but I was able to order online via walmart.com with no shipping issues to CA.

Lowered price on SW comic Art. May the force be with you.

Putting this here incase someone is interested that’s local.

I'm offering up my 1964 Williams Stop N Go. It has an issue with the ball counter. You can play it but have to hit the credit button to advance balls and the ball counter buzzes. Cabinet has been repainted white and back panel is crusty. No back door. Playfield is faded but not worn. I'm offering the machine at what I'm into it. Would consider trades. Looking for $500
Pictures to follow. I'm also considering selling the Circus Circus cocktail I picked up earlier this year and got working. While it's a rare machine it uses a full sized playfield and would be sweet for a home brew cocktail. Looking for $300 on circus circus. Pix also to follow. Figured I'd pitch them to the CA. crowd before I advertise them.

"The pinnacle of Gottlieb art packages"!

I really like the art but the game hasnt held my interest. Would like to move it along and fund other projects. Was fun to work on (as fun as a Sys1 can be)

I was quoting the Captain

Missed that part of the auction!! I gotta start using that everywhere I have this posted

Might net you a few extra grand!

Quick update on the Pin Wagon. I took my first run Saturday morning to pick up a candy cab arcade for a gentleman in Salinas. I've never seen one in person, adorable little arcades. Took me about 4 hours round trip and everyone was happy and I had a lot of fun.

I just received my packing plastic wrap, blankets and straps from Amazon. My little pin wagon is gassed up and ready to rock at a moments notice. Message me and I will send you me number to keep on hand.

Thx for all the kind words of support!

My good friend who has been collecting games for many years is in an unfortunate situation where everything will need to be sold. I'm helping him and his family out with selling the collection. Please understand that because of the sheer volume of games that was being inventoried, I don't have the most detailed pictures and can't tell you exact specifics of condition (please look at the photos as closely as possible). I also do not have access to going over there and taking more pictures at this time, but I may be able to in the near future.

I can tell you that he was a extremely knowledgeable collector with great mechanical and electronic skills. All these games should be working, and may only have small switch errors because they have sat for a little bit. I can't guarantee that though.

We feel like these are fair prices for the games based on the condition they are in. Ideally we'd like to get the full asking price for them if possible. I want to help out his family as much as possible financially with this. He worked very hard over the years fixing these games up, so his family deserves it.

Please PM me if you have any interest in these games for sale. I personally work a busy day job until around 7PM during the week, so I usually can't reply back to Pinside messages until the later evening.

All these games are located in Malibu, CA

Looking for Deadpool Premium or Ghostbusters Premium PM me with asking price.

I doubt most of you need any vouching for Kyle, but if it helps I'm doing what I can to help him with this. I was there as part of documenting them the other day, and can verify they're all solid games that were maintained by a knowledgable owner who cared about how they played.

By the way - if you see a photo of a game in the Google Drive pics and it’s not on the list it’s because it’s already sold. I’d guess 25% of the collection has already moved. So messaging me or Kyle about them won’t help, sorry!

No BSD still looking for one.
