Last chance to get a room for sure at the hotel. The remaining rooms that are being held in my block will be released TM and than they are open to the general public. So I can't guarantee you will get one. Book it today!
Plenty of room for out door vendors still available! I lowered the price to under $90 for the whole weekend. I want to pack the out doors flee market! You also get one weekend pass to the show per booth space so it's almost free to set up. I'm crazy I know go here https://pintasticnewengland.com/exhibitor-2/

Mustang for the free play area

Awesome! My wife saw the post on Facebook and was very excited about the women's shirt. Will she be able to swap her VIP men's shirt for the women cut?
Quoted from Matesamo:Awesome! My wife saw the post on Facebook and was very excited about the women's shirt. Will she be able to swap her VIP men's shirt for the women cut?

Hi All,
Ardvark Pinball Repair will be setting up on Thursday, so as to be available for repairs if needed. Rates apply; this is for repairs that can't be done in the free play area by the volunteer crew. We'll have a small space in the corner if you need to bring the game to us. Board repairs are offered on most major brands except Gottlieb.
Last year we installed NVRAM on several boards. This year we'll have the same deal as before. $15 for the device, installed free on boards with a socket, or $20 (for a total of $35) if we have to install a socket. All boards will be tested on our test fixtures before and after NVRAM install. Get those batteries off the board and out of the machine with NVRAM, and never worry about corrosion again! Most WPC and system 11 games do not have a socket. Stern Whitestar games DO have a socket, as do classic Bally / Stern.
We are pleased to announce that we will have a Multimorphic P3 at our booth this year. They can't attend Pintastic since they are busy building games, so if you want to play Lexy Lightspeed, find us in our usual corner! Although they were next to us last year, so the game will be pretty much in the same spot. 
Our Defender pinball machine (based on the video game) will return with custom led work, Titan rubber, and a freshly-restored backglass thanks to BGResto. Come by and play a few games!
Thanks for reading.

Allan has already put NVRAM in a couple of my games and I'm definitely bringing a System 11 board to get that NVRAM'ed. It's really nice to not have to even think about batteries. Thanks Allan!
Quoted from dannunz:VIP lounge experience the wonder of it all. Thursday 8pm to 6am Friday and Saturday 10pm to 6am

Allan, do you take credit cards for repair? Thinking about bringing up a whole slew of WPC CPUs to get NVRAM installed. 8 total.
Chris
I got one pin registered that bit the shed, any issues if I bring another pin ? ( if I don't get the game repaired in time? )

The penalty is, you will be forced to dig Gerry's puke pit behind the hotel.

We took credit cards in the past, but we only did a few transactions, so it wasn't worth it. We accept Paypal, though. You can use your CC with them.
Allan
I'm going to bring cash. Last year we tried buying a pin with PayPal and the owner refused to accept PayPal. I have 4 pins that need NVRAM. I want to say Allan did an awesome job on repairing two of our pins. I can't thank him enough for his kindness and being helpful.
Quoted from hawkeyexx:I'm going to bring cash. Last year we tried buying a pin with PayPal and the owner refused to accept PayPal.
Yup. If you're looking to buy a pinball machine from a non-vendor at any pinball show, you should expect to be asked for cash.

You can get a line of credit from Webster First bank that will be on site doing the financing. Since its a line of credit you can buy both new and used games up to your approved limit. Very easy form to fill out just bring a pay stub with you.
ON SITE PINBALL FINANCING AT PINTASTIC 2017
I encourage everyone to take advantage of Webster First financing to buy your beloved games this year at Pintastic. They are offering low personal loan financing so you can buy any pin you want at the show up to your credit limit. Just make sure you bring a pay stub and live or have a friend who lives in the New England area. Please support them they are a major sponsor of the show! Thank you Gabe
Quoted from dannunz:Anyone want to Kerr me talk about Pintastic check out that cool podcast by the guy who's name starts with a K. Lol
I finally figured out the podcast and gave it a listen. Excellent interview, good interviewer who asked the followup questions I was hoping he would, nice quality as well. I am not familiar with the podcast or the host but I was impressed with the episode.

I sold a game last year and the person used Webster First. It was all very easy and wouldn't hesitate to have them part of a transaction again.
