    I did that once. I'm thinking about picking up broken EMs getting them up and running and sell for a small profit. I'm retired I got nothing but time

    Gottlieb wedgeheads buy low and repair (have lots of fun resurrecting the dead). Then sell and do another one.

    Just sold my Gottlieb Big Hit. What a great pin, chimes and a "Wake the dead" bell

    My wife is the person that got me into pinball. Our swimming pool needs $6000 of work so I had no choice

    im trying to sell my last 2 too. My spine needs $100,000 worth of work. I find myself staring at the walls most days now.

    Stinks your out, but I know you'll be back in, in some form, helping out others! Stay well my friend!~SpOoKy

    About to sell all mine as well. Life's more important as fun of a hobby as this is to me. No wife but life, that is. *pats you on the back* You aren't alone.

    That sucks bud, wait a while I bet you'll be back to owning a half dozen in no time. Btw, you need to pick up sys 11 or DMDs to refurb/repair, very hard to flip EMs. GL!

    for me ,if my swimming pool need this money,i put this in garbage,use it only a couple of time in the years,enjoy pinball all seasons.i never sacrifice my pin,i prefer put a credit and pay later....

    In Fl we can swim a hell of a lot more than a couple of weeks a year though.

    In the 90s again yesterday, I swim everyday I can. I would consider sacrificing a pin for that

    Hey Bob, I've got an Old Chicago (EM) that needs some wires tweaked, could let you borrow it to test your fixing skills.
    Bob too
