Quoted from Llabnip1972:The Pin Wagon is stopping by the Pinball Pirate now to wait out traffic. I hear he's got Godzilla and Mando pro ready to go and a bunch of new used games in. Grab your credit cards and give him a call. I will load it up and bring it to you anywhere between Benicia and Salinas tonight.
If you are still there, Chris owes me a Blueprint drawing. Can you deliver it to Castro Valley on your way home?
Not sure how much the cost is for document courier, but it would make my life easier.
He was crazy busy while I was looking around. It seems that this hobby is experiencing some sort of boom? First I heard of it lol

Ah, thanks anyway!
I will have to make the trek up there to pick it up myself.

does he have any 80b goodness by any chance?
Anyone interested in a Williams Flash project? Its been sitting in storage for years and I will never get to it. I am sure it will need at least some board work, but everything is there. Pretty decent playfiled and cabinet. I can send pictures. $450?
Quoted from EEE:Is there a NorCal seller of playfield glass? My cousin in Elk Grove needs a new sheet of standard size glass.
Or if someone in the area has a spare sheet from an upgrade, she would probably buy that too.
Thanks
Did your cousin find glass? I have a used sheet she can have, it’s probably not an upgrade from anything unless it’s broken or badly scratched but it beats nothing. Let me know!
Quoted from Knxwledge:Thanks guys, Mark is coming out Wednesday at 11 to look at Mars. Sad I had to throw in the towel on it but it was driving me absolutely insane
Well Mark came out today, I started explaining what I had done to the game in general, when my sound issue happened, symptoms and fixes I tried, and he said "You probably know more about this than I do". He did some basic stuff but not much he could do at my house, so he brought the game to the shop for me. That sumbitch is gonna get right one way or another
Bump on my BK2K
1959 Bally Monarch Shuffle Bowler in Monterey, CA.
The owner reached out to me but it's too far to travel. He advised the machine is really clean. Lane and backglass are excellent. Cabinet has some fade/wear to it. Said it has no coin mech but works. It's in a restaurant but it wasn't making money so he's looking to sale it or trade towards something else that takes up less space.
Figured I'd post it here to see if anyone has any interest.

Hmm...want your Tron back? 
Just kidding, that is never going anywhere. Troz' pins are just what he says they are, super good dude!

Oh man, only 35 plays and you’re out?

It seems that a lot of people are bailing Halloween/ultraman. Was that game a lot more hype than substance?
Quoted from uncivil_engineer:It seems that a lot of people are bailing Halloween/ultraman. Was that game a lot more hype than substance?
I’ve got an Ultraman on order, and I’ll admit I’m waffling…although part of that is that I’ve got a Godzilla coming & will also be ordering Rush. I’m 1-in-1-out & it’s hard to decide what to sell for something new. I sold TSPP for Godzilla…dunno what I’ll sell for Rush & Ultraman. The other part is that the code is super early. If I open it, I know I’m gonna be part of the “journey”. I’m extremely happy with where Rick & Morty ended up, although that was a different team. I played Ultra at Ayce Gogi, and it’s beautiful & plays nice - it’s just hard to tell at this point what the “game” will truly be when it’s all said and done.
Quoted from uncivil_engineer:It seems that a lot of people are bailing Halloween/ultraman. Was that game a lot more hype than substance?
It feels like every single game, regardless of quality, is more hype than substance these days. Just because the hype levels are so unreasonable. People scramble to buy buy buy because they're so worried about missing out, and later when they sober up they're not sure they even wanted the actual game as much as they feared not having it.
I get it, not judging, but it's hard to see new games being flipped as any real indication of their actual quality.
Quoted from Rarehero:I’m 1-in-1-out & it’s hard to decide what to sell for something new.
My collection is down to 3 games, and I'm kinda bored with them. But they're also the last ones standing after paring down, and it's hard to know what I'd get rid of to have something new. Tough calls!
Considering selling Chromed out Tron LE with Pinwoofer and mods. Lots of extras. $24k OBO
Located in Reno
I will post picks next next

Someone ran the numbers in another thread and per those figures, there are less people bailing on HWN and UM than with the average new game. Haven't run any numbers myself but his figures looked reasonable.

I’ve never seen reservations being sold at a discount before, so I assumed something odd was going on. It does make sense that a certain number of reservations would be withdrawn prior to delivery.

I can't live life that way. I thought that Godzilla was a cool game as I am a fan of the genre. I didn't rush to buy the Premimum or the LE as I will not spend for a game that I haven't played yet.
When I played the pro version at PAGG, I was blown away (yeah, on the Pro version). So having said that, a re-sold Godzilla Prem might be in my future.
No fear of missing out, there are plenty of fun games out there. Just wait your turn.

Fat J's Pin Wagon is finishing its second run to socal this morning. Thanks to some awesome navigation tips from pinsiders especially bluespin, it is going much smoother than last weekend. 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.

Fat J's Pin Wagon
Anyone looking for a 78 world cup project in the bay area for cheap?
I'll throw an ad up once I get pics. Not my machine. If it sells before the ad, I'll send pinside the normal amount.
Who had the white van picking up games in Malibu this morning? Got a story about gate crashing that private road on our way out for you. 
Quoted from Aurich:Who had the white van picking up games in Malibu this morning? Got a story about gate crashing that private road on our way out for you.
That was the Pin Wagon and the suave mf behind the wheel was Fat J
Kid was just doing his job, and I respect his hustle. You could see his body language with the clip board as we were rolling down to the gate he'd told us we weren't supposed to use. "These mfers, oh hell no". 
Quoted from Llabnip1972:See what happens
pm sent to you
Nice Munsters LE for sale. See add. Come see and play if local.

This isn’t CA specific yet, but I’m selling my Ultraman CE #127 pre-order spot. Likely will be ready around December. If no one bites & I take delivery, then it’ll be a local CA situation. 
PM me if interested. Thanks!

Just in case anyone has not seen this and wants to. John weeks at expo 2021 answering questions about banning. I really like John and I am listening right now. He is like an uncle to me in my mind.
Sorry for the digression. I know many of you held banning close to the heart, like I do.
John weeks starts at around 3:15. Posted elsewhere on pinside too. Thanks!

Happens a lot. I've gotten Alice Cooper and other spots at a discount.

Thanks for sharing. That story about 7th and grand was something. That business partner must be kicking themselves with how gentrified DTLA is now. BTW i drove by there the other day and Bottega is boarded up.
Quoted from wayinla:Any place in Southern California have a Godzilla to play? I’d like to try this one to see if I like it.
AYCE Gogi has a pro and an LE (as of yesterday). Now that the LE is out, not sure if the pro is still there.
