Just paid for 2 indoor flea market spaces. Trailer will be packed to the gills. Will toss up a list of titles two weeks before show time.
Have 3 nice Gottlieb EM’s available. Quick Draw, Sing Along, and Flip-a-Card. PM for more details. All are restored and play great
Also have a few neon beer sign’s available. Pabst, Miller High Life, Schlitz, Rheingold (mini), Troegs… maybe more
Quoted from Ivan1496:Just a heads up regarding glass for Pinfest 2023. I have 200 sheets of standard on order and I’m within a few bucks of last years price. If you are in need of custom stuff I strongly encourage you to let me know sooner than later. I will not have the flexibility of placing custom size orders last minute. The current lead times are a bit lengthy. I’m hoping to piggyback off the existing order but have no idea how flexible they’ll be.

Are you able to order gottlieb widebody glass? (system 80)

Target Alpha
Pop a card
Ship ahoy/buccaneer
Bally Kick Off

Merchant's Square is where I 1st started going to the shows. Then called Pinball Wizard's convention.
Loved the shows at Merchant's Square. The room was a bit tight, and it got hot and loud during the height of the show, but the rest of the mall had great stuff, and the outdoor flea market was always outstanding.

If you thought that was tight (and it was for sure) you should have seen it when it was at the firehouse! Amazing what this ahow has grown into. Merchant's Square had THE BEST pinball flea market though.

I've got a really nice Earthshaker. Completely rebuilt playfield (with all new ramps, plastics, pops, slings, bumpers etc), sinking building, and 100% dialed in.
As much as I love seeing it sat next to my Whirlwind, I'd love to trade it out for something new. Not really picky, but I'd consider most anything on my wishlist that's comparable.
Quoted from SilverUnicorn:you should have seen it when it was at the firehouse!
I do remember the Fullerton Firehouse shows. The only one I ever missed was the very first show in Trexlertown. The good ol' days!

Same here Joe, missed the first one myself because I didn't know about it.

But you missed last year's show...
Our nutty buddy MK has been to them all.

I pretty much did every Allentown show from the very first one! I remember (to my sorrow) selling a mint Varkon for around $300 or so at one of the very early firehouse shows! It wasn't quite so rare then!

The deals at the early shows were great. If only we knew!
Quoted from freddy:Showing your age buddy.
I'm an old fart. That's why I refuse to pay new prices. LOL
The show has evolved so much over the years. Brian did a great job building the show and Ivan has absolutely kept that momentum going. I got really nervous when Brian said he wasn't doing the show anymore, but Iven stepped up huge and is doing great with it. I was lucky enough to be at the very first show, and have only missed one.
Remember when it was twice a year? Yeah, that's right!

I believe it was twice a year only one year, and I think it's because he didn't have a show the previous year. The Spring show that year is the first one I attended.
Quoted from tomdrum:I'll be set up in the flea market again!

-Williams Firepower II (very nice condition)
-Data East Simpsons (would trade for a BK2K)
-Gottlieb Black Hole (very long shot of this being done)
-Daval Buttons (super rare pre-war game, needs some work but outstanding condition)
Looking for BK2K, Xenon, Vector, Electra, Bone Busters, Sorcerer, possibly others...
Quoted from transprtr4u:Anyone there have an Earthshaker for sale ?
Stephen at the (old) gameseum might have one for sale.
Quoted from hawkeyexx:Can't wait to come to the show. I hope there is a Scooby-Doo at the show....
Should be

I still recall the unique "swag" they handed you for free every year at Wizards, just for coming through the door.
I guess that concept is gone forever...
Once again, I'm looking for solid state projects. Anything from the 70's to the 2000's. I can buy in bulk and don't care if they work or not. Clear out those projects you'll never get around to!

One year they had a Flash Gordon at the door I can’t recall exactly but it I believe it was the giveaway that year…

They had some really great giveaway games when the Heins ran the show. Of course I never won any of them!

Yeah I wish they still did that. In the beginning you had to be present to win too. This kept people there the last day as well.
