    I have brought WW into the house to start bringing it back to life.

    While I wait for CPR to finish the play fields and plastic sets, I'd like to get it up and running to bash the ball around a bit. I did an inventory of parts required, and hit the web to start the order.

    Two critical parts for the game, the right ramp, #R-13190 and the ramp lift assembly, #B-13233, need to be replaced (in the case of the lift assembly, it is missing).

    Now, I'm a fairly cheap bastard, and being up in Canuckistan, I prefer to order everything from one shop, so I only pay customs and shipping once.

    Here is where I run into an issue. Marco has the lift assembly, but not the ramp (OOS). BAA has the ramp, but not the lift assembly (OOS).

    Grrrrrrr. So, I wait for a month, checking every second day to see if the items come in. Neither shop changes. Another month. Neither shop changes. WTF?

    So, what are my options? Take a financial hit, and order from both shops? Email one shop and say "Hey, can you order this other part to your shop from your competitor, then I will order it and a bunch of other parts from you?". Or simply wait until one of the places has the part?

    Or, does anyone have either of these items used that you want to part with?

    What say you Pinsiders?

    Haha. Of course Whirlwind! Whirlwind = WW. Whitewater = WH2O. Waterworld = people actually have one of these?
