Kerry, I believe I have a DMD that would fit.
I think it's new/unused, I'll have too go look and see if I still have it.
Bob
Well, it's a used DMD, with 1 vertical line out. If anyone wants it let me know.
Other than that 1 line out, it's as bright as a new one.

Still looking for a NGG or Tee'd Off in NorCal!
Somebody help put me out of my "I need to find a game that the grand-kids will play" misery!
Robert
Quoted from BlobfishXL:We have linked you to this game before. What is your price range?
Why is buying a pinball so difficult.
I'm a buyer, I have money, I've posted several times I'm looking for games.
And what do I get...PM's and posts that ask what is my price range.
If someone has a game they want to sell, let me know location, condition and asking price.
My budget is as follows...as little $ as possible to get the best game possible...with bonus points for something I can easily drive and see, play and put in the back of my Jeep GC and drive home.

In anticipation of perhaps purchasing another game, I only have room for 5, I will be putting my X-Men LE up for sale soon.
Details to follow, as soon as I return from an extended work trip to Ridgecrest, Ca.

I've listed my X-Men for sale.
I know a lot of people think it's great, but while it's definitely a beautiful game...it's a game I really never got into play-wise. Though is does play better with the smaller Wolverine figure and newton ball arrangement I installed.
I'm not looking for trades, as I don't have the space. Come by and take a look, drink a beer, make an offer...to me it looks the same as when I took it out of the box.

WTF...keep it until I can at least come by and play it.

Quoted from shovelhed:Had a deal fall through WWF RR available again, trade for other dmd or $2500 or best offer.
If I had room, I'd be trying to work out a deal...but I have no room and actually need to get rid of one.
Nice looking WWFRR.

I'll be putting my 2007 Spiderman up for sale shortly, as soon as I get a few pics, make an appraisal of condition and list of features and go thru my boxes of parts to see what else might go along with it.
Robert
Quoted from IdahoRealtor:The originals took a hit in value after the Vault Edition came out.
I guess I'll find out what that "hit" is.
Robert
Quoted from golfingdad1:It seems supply has finally caught up to recent demand .
You'd think that someone would want SM...just not planning to give mine away.
Quoted from Rarehero:I miss mine a bit. But I'm sorta in a pinball holding pattern at the moment. Also I'd have to peel off all those target decals & find the original sling plastics. lol
Ha, Ha, ha...
Quoted from Rarehero:Those games are far inferior to Spider-Man. Spider-Man is excellent! $5k is a real value on that game in today's market, IMO.
I have had a couple of offers for my Spider-Man, both at $4600...well except for the scammer that would pay full price.
It's difficult for me to think about parting with a great game like SM for so little money, but I guess at the moment that's what it is.
If the grandkids wanted to play it more, I'd probably try keep it, but they are fickle and apparently the novelty of Spider-Man has worn off. They play NBA FB & NGG way more. I need the space so SM is the one to go.
There are certainly a lot of options for games at around $5k, but SM has to be one of the best values out there right now.
Robert
As soon as I sell my Spider-Man I think I'd like to try to do a refurb/restoration on a DMD game.
It needs to have the parts ability and "good bones". No games from a flood or fire, please.
Not sure what I'm looking for, but will probably know it when I see it.
Accepting ideas, suggestions and game offers.
Thanks.

I'm considering selling my MMr (LE #34) with color DMD, purchased from Larry @ Flip N Out.
I just don't play it much anymore and I'm not really set up (both financially & space wise) to be a pinball museum.
Price hasn't been set yet, so flame me if you want...just seeing if there is local interest before I generate a full add and/or post on Craigslist (and perhaps have to ship it).
Maybe open to a partial trade with a Slugfest, T3, Mousin Around, Taxi or Who Dunnit.
Robert
Quoted from Ericpinballfan:We should talk in a few days. W?D still available and I may still come up to Lodi in May.
Damn, I'll be in Paso drinking wine when you will be in Lodi...trip schedule a while ago.

I'm selling my AFMr (LE #34) (green trim), purchased from Larry @ Flip N Out.
I just don't play it much, and decided to keep my MMr as I prefer it more.
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/ad/63655
Located at 94583, prefer local buyer...no trades.

My AFMr (LE #34) (green trim), purchased from Larry @ Flip N Out is still available.
Essentially brand new, 146 plays.

$7500...located at 94583, prefer local buyer...no trades.
Thanks.

Sale Pending...
While I like the game, I don't love it and really don't have enough room to have a Pinball Museum, so I'm selling my AFMr (LE #34) (green trim), purchased from Larry @ Flip N Out.
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/ad/63655
I've made one last reduction to $7200, located at 94583, prefer local buyer...no trades; as of a few days ago it had 146 plays.
If it doesn't sell I may give it to my son-in-law for his game room...I need the space and am tired of looking at it as it reminds me of how much I paid for something I'd really rather not have.
Thanks.

I've been retheming a Bally Night Rider (SS) as a Whack-a-Mole game and am having a bit of trouble finding replacement switches for the game.
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/bally-night-rider-ss-re-theme
There is not a lot of them and I have been taking new switch stacks apart and reassembling them to mimic the old Bally switches.
If anyone has a source or has some they would part with, I'd appreciate it.

Selling my Star Trek.
Robert
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/for-sale-star-trek-premium-le-11
1 week later
In recent memory I have sold my X-Men, Spiderman, AFMr, Stern ST Premium and my NBA Fastbreak & will probably list my NGG for sale.
While I enjoy or enjoyed these games, since I bought my Night Rider to re-theme I have remembered how fun the older & surely simpler SS games (rule wise) were/are.
Thinking back on the Fathom, Police Force & Comet I owned and similar I played at the Lucky Ju Ju (now the Pacific Pinball Museum) and at bars in the 70's, my desire to learn the rules for an "18 Mission Game Progression" dwindles.
Maybe I'm just getting older; I do know that I can't play for more than 10 - 15 minutes without taking an Aleve to minimize the arthritis pain in both hands.
I'm sure that plays into my desire too.
I think that this afternoon I may go over to Alameda and play a few of these simpler ruled games that are difficult to master.
If anyone local to me has an early SS game in good condition that may be wanting to part with, let me know...I might be tempted to buy.
Robert
Not my re-theme, but it is nice.
I'm still working on integrating sounds into mine. All of the graphics are complete, with only the playfield overlay to print and install. Since I will be screwing with the playfield and the wiring still, the playfield overlay is on hold. Life had sort of put this on hold, but now that it's turning into winter I will probably move ahead a bit faster.

Wondering if anyone has one or 2 of these they might be willing to part with:
Laser Cue, Black Pyramid, Centaur, EB Deluxe (1981), Jungle Lord, Gorgar, Seawitch or Harlem Globetrotters.
Robert
Quoted from ThatOneDude:Feel free to swing by sometime and play Gorgar.
This is California and I'm retired and don't have much money, so you should give me that game.
You can try to hold out, but when the new Governor takes over, this is a done deal!
Robert
Quoted from IdahoRealtor:I recommend to pick up a Williams System 9, or two. There are only 3 - Comet, Space Shuttle, Sorcerer. All excellent pins and generally cheaper than System 11s and early Ballys.
Owned a Comet for over 15 years, and yes it was pretty fun.

Quoted from Aurich:I dunno, part of the reason I'm thinking of selling is lack of patience for these deeper more involved games.
I have recently gotten a Gottlieb Joker Poker and a Flash Gordon. I love playing them. Don't know how long I'll keep them, but somehow the simpler (rules wise) games appeal to me.

My Slugfest is at my wife's daughters house and they want to trade it for my Flash Gordon.
So, when I get it back this weekend, I'm going to take a few pictures and list it for sale.
I hate to sell it, especially with a color DMD, but I just don't have any space to keep it.
If anyone is interested, let me know.
Robert
Quoted from winslow:Hi Robert,
Did you have a price in mind for Slugfest? Does it have the card dispenser? LMK!
Thanks!
I just got it back home yesterday and haven't had a chance to look at it yet.
I should get an ad up later today.

I'm selling my retheme game... I've lowered the price to $1,000. Think of it as a classic bally game with a worn out play field and no back glass.
It works, has all new boards and displays... And I really don't have the room for it and it needs to be gone.

I have gotten no responses from the people who wanted the Flash Gordon.
So, it's still available.

Quoted from NevadaNutJob:i would love that FG - just can’t make it happen sooner than Pinagogo .
We're doing construction on the patio and a lot of the furniture is in the garage, so I can't get both the game and my car in there.
Have a friend of yours come and get it and keep it for you.

My Flash Gordon cabinet has some stains on it from a previous cleaning. I thought that I could remove them. but I was only partially successful.
I've lowered the price due to this.
Robert
Quoted from NevadaNutJob:Does this mean it’s no longer for sale or can I buy it with short term storage ?
This isn't my first choice, but it could be stored until Pinagogo. I really need it to be moved ASAP, so any local pickup offers are preferred.
I've updated the ad & price, due to cabinet stains.
