Make sure your order $100 so you get your 10% disc

What is this 10% discount you speak of?

Is it supposed to be automatic or do you have to ask for it?
I just placed an order last month over 100 and would have used it if I knew about it.

It's automatic. Check your invoice, it should be there.

I assume it's automatic.

Did you look on the bottom of your bill?

It's on each line item, not at the bottom. They don't mention it, it's just a net price kind of thing. If I've ever been just below $100 (imagine that?) they call me and ask me if I want to add a few posts or rubbers to bump it up to $100. Good people.

I checked my last few receipts and I did get it after all. I never noticed it before. I had one receipt that was just shy of $100 before shipping, if I knew about the discount I would have added a few more items to push it over the edge.

If they are linear flips the rebuild kits will be more expensive. If you go that route, get the full kit so you get a new crank as well. For some reason it's left off the "mini" kit?

You can also call them and ask for a retrofit kit to change the flippers back to the "standard" rotational type. Not sure how much more or less that is.

Remember the (linear, at least) flipper base plates are reversible if you have stripped or wallowed coil stop screw holes.

Welcome to the best era in pinball!!

+1 for PB Resource. They have added lamps to my order without me even asking, just to give me the discount. Just make sure you have part numbers and give a good description of the parts so they don't have to spend extra time. I'd be lost without PBR!

I can confirm that the old style base plates are reversible as well. It's like getting free parts in every game! If the original (black anodized) screws are still present, I don't tap the new holes. The screws form the threads. I feel that formed threads are stronger than tapped threads, due to the work hardening of the steel. I use a cordless screwdriver, so the whole process takes just a few minutes.
