Quoted from shacklersrevenge:

If this is in regards to a situation like mine, I am registered for free play and do not have a flea space, so if someone wants to prepay for a project, then ill bring it..otherwise, what do I do with it?
Every year I hear the same thing anyways, and every year every row is packed with pins. So I don't know about that argument anymore.

I attended Pinfest for the first time last year. Parking lot deals on working pins (and projects) will always happen. From my perspective the real issue is people pulling games out early. Last year there were probably 20+ pins taken off the show floor around 5-6 PM. The next day a few new pins were brought in by people that couldn't attend Friday. By 3PM Saturday a lot of pins were being pulled off the floor even though the show is open until 8PM. When people pull pins off the floor early it makes the general public (not raving pinheads like all of us) feel like they were ripped off; advertised 200+ pins to play Saturday, Saturday morning 170 pins to play, at 3PM people start taking games home and by 6PM only 100 pins left on the floor. In order to get people to keep coming back to the show we need to keep the pins on the floor all day Friday and Saturday.

Quoted from djreddog:

It's really up to each person. I will be setting up mine and leaving in the room all night with a plan to break it down around 8am Saturday, then head to breakfast and after that head back to the show.

djreddog Will the room be locked up at night?

Quoted from shacklersrevenge:

Its a tough one, because a lot of the people taking games out early are a mix of buyers and people that brought. The penalty to remove becomes an afterthought when you have a 5-6 drive ahead.
I know I've had people buy, explaining to them the rules and they don't hesitate at the fee because they have a long drive home with their new game, its hard for everyone to want or be able to stay the whole show.

I agree with the opinions that everyone has expressed so far. It's just that people should keep the games on the floor as long as possible to help keep the general public coming back. I'll stop talking about this now. I know that some people will be disappointed as rants are the norm for Allentown threads, even non-hotel threads.

Quoted from Jiggly_Martian:

Comet Pinball project with extra Playfield, as found, absolutely not tested.
Playfield 1 has loads of wear.
Playfield 2 is decent.
Corkscrew ramp is bad. Million shot ramp has slight cracks.
Cabinet has scratches and chips.
Electronics have slight evidence of alkaline damage.
Power supply included.
Backglass is very Nice.

Corkscrew ramp and ramp with the flap were recently reproduced and the million shot ramp is currently being produced. https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/freeplay40-ramps/page/43#post-4338723

Quoted from Irishbastard:

So what's the best hotel to buy, sell, or trade at? Asking for a friend

It sounds like Skyemont plans on doing some heavy drinking. I’d hit him up on pricing about 2am Saturday morning.

#786 6 years ago
Quoted from Fmfreim:

ISO - Looking for pinball mover. Looking for someone to move a pinball machine from Saint Charles MO (near St Louis MO) to Arlington VA. If you can do it , lets talk price.

Fmfreim Jamaster10 is leaving Indiana for Pinfest. Reach out to him and the seller. Maybe your seller in MO can get the game to IN?

Andrew from Pinitech should be there sharing a booth with his father Skip too-many-pins in the flea market area.

I have a Millionaire with a second PF, an extra roulette window and an NOS translite (in addition the the one already in the game).
If I can get my act together, I'll get some photos and stuff up tonight.

PM sent

#941 5 years ago
Quoted from misterschu:

how does one arrange this?

Call them and ask them if they can deliver to the show. Make sure to have the part numbers and quantities ready. They'll charge you now, and load it with everything else they bring to the show.

#953 5 years ago
Quoted from Skypilot:

Anyone have a Star Trek next generation for sale? Friend of a friend looking for one .

Skypilot See WannaPinball post# 930 in this thread. He has one for sale.

#954 5 years ago
Quoted from DRDAVE:

My buddy has a nicely restored Centaur with CPR playfield and new cabinet. Looks and plays like new. Only thing that detracts is the CPR repro backglass that is not quite as nice looking as the original. $6,000
Can bring to show if pre paid.

Out of my price range for this title. Thanks.

#1018 5 years ago
Quoted from John_I:

Actually I was thinking the opposite from a buyers perspective. I was thinking there will be a lot of people who are not on pinside showing up to find all of this stuff already sold and scratching their heads. From a sellers perspective, sure there are tons who are not pre-selling or even reading pinside.

I went to Pinfest last year on set up day Thursday and stayed the whole show. Yes some pins will be sold Thursday, working in freeplay and projects, but there will be lots for sale of both varieties when the show opens to the public on Friday.

Quoted from delt31:

so who wants to bring a TnA for sale so I can buy it ; )

PinballSTAR will have TNA for sale in his booth

#1108 5 years ago
Quoted from ShootForSlrValue:

Anybody selling a Barracora or Black Knight?

There were 2-3 Black Knights for sale earlier in this thread

#1228 5 years ago
Quoted from MattG:

Also still looking for a Dredd translite and a red arrowhead insert (Like on F14).
I can't find a single red anywhere, if someone could point me in a direction, I would appreciate it. I really don't want to resort to using clear.

Try asking Mike Gray in Birmingham, Al. He's on Facebook and he recently parted out an F-14.

Quoted from misterschu:

Big request, but pinjunky bring it for free play, please!

#1365 5 years ago

I’m looking for the main ramp for BSD.

Quoted from shlockdoc:

What is a pvc-pipe leg cleaner?

You take a piece of pvc and a pvc end cap and glue them together. Put in the legs and fill with 5% acidity vinegar. Cleans the rust off the legs
