Check out the list at http://pinagogo.org/bring-games/ . How does that compare to what you have seen.

Pin-a-Go-Go has a team of volunteer pinball medics and a dedicated clinic. My pin bot had an issue with the drops not resetting last year. They pulled the game, replaced the coil stop, the transistor and the drive transistor. Free of Charge

Pinbot went out and had over 500 total plays for the weekend.

I don't have a problem with the PaGG techs. They are who I'd go to for board repairs outside of the show anyway.

There are many ways to support a pinball show:

Pay for entry. No show could exist for free and paid entries are what it's all about ultimately.

Volunteer. Great way to meet people, find out who has the best games and help the show.

Bring Games. A-List, B-List, Rare it doesn't matter. The more games the better the show the more people pay to get in.

Rent a truck and haul games for others. Get a hold of all the locals and bring their games to the show. Some guys will never let the good titles out, some just don't want to haul them themselves. Last year I hauled 13 machines and it ranged from an EM that sold at the show for less than 700 to a Minty Circus Voltaire.

Quoted from practicalsteve:

Exactly, bought a fully restored, just clear coated WCS94 last year at PAGG. One so nice that anyone who played it said it was the nicest they had ever seen. Bought it before the show. Sure I could have said to my buddy, I don't want it there, don't take it. But I wanted people to see his amazing work. I wanted people to enjoy it. I couldn't even be there the whole weekend, but I left it for everyone to enjoy until close on Sunday. And I'm bringing it again this year, and it's NFS, just there for people to play.

That was a sweet wcs! I played the snot out of it. I'd love to play it again this year
