And OPL. And tournaments. And just plain ol’ get-togethers. Can’t wait either.

Eightball Deluxe on Kijiji for $5k. From someone already in this group?
Been there a week which sort of surprises me. Anyone know why it’s not selling? Pricey but not unreasonable compared to what else I’ve seen.
Enquiring minds want to know.
(Not that I have any $ to make an offer... just curious)

Actually 5k is pretty obscene for a EBD. Unless it's gold plated and dipped in holy water?

I have a pile of random stuff waiting for me in Ogdensburg. Those poor border agents are gonna be slammed for months after having a year of mostly downtime.

Yup...LOL!
Quoted from HoneyBadger:Yup...LOL!
are you thinking strategy? Like let's say the border opens, do you go in the first week and just get to the border at 6am? Or wait a weak to see if the lines subside after a week or month during normal hours?
There’s not going to be lines at Ogdensburg. I’ll go when convenient for me. If I have to wait a bit so be it... lol

i hear yah! prices of some machines are out of control... but i have seen EBD go for amounts like that so wondering why it wasnt picked up. i’m not willing to pay that much but figured others would.
looks in good shape... so just curious.
I expect these really high prices are going to alleviate somewhat once the border opens up. As much as I want a machine, I don't want to be the last guy paying a high price. I'd rather be the first one to pay a lower price.

like with lumber and real estate prices, I don't expect there to be a sudden price drop, but a year+ slow decline off the peak. It's still going to be a question of how long you think you can wait, and how much that time is worth to you to NOT have that pin.
Anyways, someone please lend me their Medieval Madness this summer

This is what happens when you transport a pin on it’s legs with the backbox up ....

Legs were not on the funhouse. You can see in the picture. When a machine falls off a truck it’s gonna get damaged.

I guess they weren’t , but makes me wonder how the hell it fell out unless the tailgate is sketchy

Go announce your attendance and if you can bring a game! It's ways an amazing time. This is not a public my advertised event, just a fun smaller thing for fellow pinhead

The show will go forward if 20+ games are pledged for it

Quoted from Blackghost4:Hi this post has been quiet. haven't noticed it before. I'm in Orleans.
Welcome to the thread! You're quite the Gottlieb fan!!!
Quoted from MrMikeman:Welcome to the thread! You're quite the Gottlieb fan!!!
Yes Mike that's because nobody wanted to fix Gottlieb so I wanted to learn them well.

You are correct about that! I have repaired many Gtb but hate them so much. I hate the architecture, the use of proprietary components, the over use of edge connectors, etc.
Gtb did rule the EM world though.
I had forgotten this thread was here. I have been working on a new rule set for my Future Spa. I will be hopefully releasing a version in the not too distant future.
