Where and how much did you get the rollergames for?

#1052 9 years ago

How's that Mystic look, PDX?

#1053 9 years ago
Quoted from Pinplayer1967:

Just got home from the Pendleton pinball meet,

Tell me more about this pinball meet, is is monthly? annual?
or does it move locations from time to time.

#1054 9 years ago

Looks pretty good
Little bit of PF wear but it's clean and has new boards
I'm pretty excited to set it up

It was the first time, it startes with a couple of guys that were gonna trade a pin or two. Then it expanded to like 6 or 7 guys trading stuff in the Wild Horse Casino parking lot.

Awesome game. Lemme know if you ever put it on the block.

Sounds like a fun way to spend a SAT Afternoon;
hopefully another informal impromptu gathering
will come together again soon,
to swap pinball machines and pinball stories.

#1059 9 years ago

I'd love to attend one of these in the future. I don't have much/anything to trade yet (I only own two machines so far), but "so far" is the key: I'm on the hunt for 3 more EMS!

Indeed - Please give us a head's up before the next meet. Might be fun to make the drive & stay the night at the casino. I can drag my junk along.

#1061 9 years ago

Greetings PNW people,
On the off chance that there is one floating around on the left coast, I am looking for a Funhouse.
Just experienced a blast from the past playing the one they have over at Blair Alley.
I'm in Eugene, Oregon.
Cheers!

Sweet, thats about the price I am lookng for, for a table I can spend some time fixing up. Is there anything similar on the west side (seattle to bellingham) anytime soon?

Looking to part ways with a long standing project Fire! that we've finally admitted that we'll never get done.

#1064 9 years ago

Just a friendly public service announcement that I'm in the market for 1960s and 70s Gottlieb EMs.

#1065 9 years ago
Quoted from WApb:

Any of us bought that $2995 "HOU" Road Show off Seattle craigslist? Looks like a sweet machine..

Yep, a pinsider did. Search for road show should come up in the forums. Bunch of pics -- looks pretty sweet.

#1066 9 years ago

Got one of my grails from Pdxmonkey, loving Medusa.

Thank's again guys.

#1075 9 years ago

New guy here in the Spokane area. I'm primarily interested in finding a Laser Ball widebody, or Space Invaders widebody. I'm also on the lookout for earlier EM machines from the 70's: Wild Life, Jungle King, Abra Ca Dabra... others maybe.

Thank you

#1076 9 years ago

Asajay, welcome! There are a few EMs for sale in the Spokane/Pullman areas on CL. Boise also seems to get quite a few for sale from time to time.

#1078 9 years ago

Thanks for the link BlobfishXL. That's a fine looking machine, fully shopped and restored. However, I just secured a different Space Invaders pinball from another source. I'll be looking to transport it next weekend. Its still in original non-restored shape, which made it a bit less expensive. It does need work, so I'll be monkeying with it for a while.

I do occasionally check craigslist for Washington, Idaho, Oregon and Montana. I'm probably really choosey on what I want to buy. But I did read an article a while ago about someone using a Raspberry Pi to restore a machine; that and they took some non-descript cheap pinball, totally stripped it, repainted it in a new theme and programmed it how they wanted. That might make an interesting project if I pick up cheap machine.

Now, if I could find a Laser Ball....

#1079 9 years ago

Sold

Rollergames is spoken for.

#1081 9 years ago

Pretty quiet in here. Any upcoming swap meets anywhere around bellingham? Im looking for a cheap project table.

#1082 9 years ago

Swap meets up here are pretty much unheard of. What kind of game are you looking for?

#1083 9 years ago

Shame about the meets. this seems like an area with a lot of interest. Especially with the giant Seattle-Tacoma market! Does anything ever show up at bigger flea-markets or is it strictly CL?

I do not have any tables at all so I am pretty open to anything, just looking for something I can play with my kids. Table conditions don't scare me, I am confident I can pull off a total rebuild of cabinet, playfield and wiring/mechanics - in fact it looks like it would be fun. The hard part is getting something! this is a tough area to find bargains in.

#1084 9 years ago

I have found you just have to be constantly on the look-out. As you meet people and let it be known you're interested, Pins seem to find you. I came across a gorgeous 1967 wedgehead Fun Land by Gottlieb that I bought for $300 from an antique dealer in Renton who was going out of business. The only way I knew about it was because of an ad I'd placed on CL looking for a Target Alpha and the guy emailed me and said "How about a Fun Land"? I looked at it and saw that the guy didn't realize what a nice-condition game he had (it had been in his apartment above the store for 30 years and hardly played at all).

#1085 9 years ago

Mark,
I have a StarTrip cocktail pin that I snagged for $100 off of CL last year.
It starts up fine and flips but keeps on blowing a fuse under the play field. There doesn't appear to be any board damage and I removed the battery from the main board to ensure that it wouldn't ruin anything.
I'd been sitting on it waiting for some free time to try and figure out the fuse issue but it's not a priority.
If you want it as a project I'd sell it for the $100 I have into it.
I'd love for it to go to someone local up here.
You are more than welcome to come check it out.
Let me know.

Tempting..... I have a weird thing for Game Plans.

#1087 9 years ago

Awesome! I will send you a msg and set it up

#1088 9 years ago

I picked up Space Invaders today. It will need a little TLC once I get it set up and start going through it. The backglass is in nearly perfect shape, it has a new battery installed and appears to be complete. I've not powered it up yet as the previous owner had some of it unplugged for dis-assembly. I also need to find a good spot for it with plenty of room to work around it.

I've got a couple of questions and haven't been able to find any details yet from searching. I thought for sure, back in 1982 when I played this at a local club, that it had multi-ball. But I can't find anything to support that and the previous owner said this doesn't have multi-ball. Maybe my memory is bad (time can do nasty things).

Second thing. The front glass of the backbox is totally clear. I thought it was supposed to be tinted to a certain degree to help the reflectivity of the lighting between the front and back glass.

Oh, and there is (was?) a Mata Hari for sale near Spokane, in Liberty Lake:
spokane.craigslist.org link

From the photos it looks to be in great shape. If it weren't for Space Invaders being on the top of my list, I probably would have purchased the Mata Hari.

#1089 9 years ago

According to the IPDB, space invaders doesn't have multiball.

#1090 9 years ago

Long shot, I know, but I'm looking for a Twilight Zone cab in decent condition, or a cab that could be turned into a TZ cab. Having a tough time getting the cab on my new TZ straight enough to be playable.

#1091 9 years ago

Did I hear about a cocktail game for sale? Can I have second dibs if he don't want it

#1092 9 years ago

Sorry Oropuro - thanks to JosiahCox's immense wonderfulness, I am the proud owner of my very first table - the Star Trip Cocktail table! So it is off the market.

#1093 9 years ago

Sorry guys,
Mark was local to me and in need of a project game for his first pin so I did what I could to pass on some good pinball karma and get another person into the hobby. That being said, with Star Trip gone and Judge Dredd about to go back to it's actual home I have a space in my lineup that demands to be filled. Must....have.....7 games.....at all.....times........

Anyone have anything for sale right now or are thinking ahead about planning on bringing something to the show? I have cash in hand and am willing to travel or meet up at the show. Hit me up if you have a game you want to rotate out in the sub 3K range.

Cheers and have a great day!

#1094 9 years ago

I am thinking of selling my 1981 Stern Lightning,
PF is in VG condition
CAB OK
only catch is that the BG has severe flaking.
Hopefully someone can find a NOS or Repro BG for for $200-300
I am willing to sell it "as is" for $500ish
was working when last set up prior to move from CA to ORE.
I will try to get some pics posted soon.

#1095 9 years ago

Im sure missing my METLE anyone have one they are thinking of selling or trading?

JC... I have a HUO WPT that I see is on your wishlist... I bought it new, in super shape with knocker upgrade and you have enough cash to buy it

#1100 9 years ago

This may be a long shot, but I'm looking to grow my collection by a few in the next few months and haven't had much luck outside of potentially shipping from across the country via Pinside .

I'm out of Seattle if anyone has anything they're looking to sell, and will also be down in Portland for Pinbrawl this weekend if any Portland guys have anything they're trying to move. Wasn't planning on bringing a truck down, but should be able to figure something out if there's something available.

Here's a list I keep that I am specifically looking for, but am open to many others for sure:
AC/DC Premium
Ripley's
Shadow
BSD
WPT
TAF
T3
Mustang Pro
Star Trek Pro
Eight Ball Deluxe
Williams Grand Prix
Harlem Globetrotters
Fireball
Joker Poker
Wizard!
Sorcerer
Frontier

Thanks,
-Todd
