Anybody know anything about the Stern Big Game for sale on CL in Blaine?
No pics of lower playfield unfortunately.
Any info on the seller?
Curious that's all.
Thanks.

Quoted from Parzival:Anyone have a nice Who Dunnit for sale?
There is one at Blainbrook Bowling in Blaine that's for sale. I will talk to the owner tonight and see what his selling price. It's in nice shape.

I'd be interested too. I played the one at Blainebrook a few months ago. My first Who Dunnit experience and thought it was a really fun, original feel to a game.

Super fun game for single player action. With the roulette bet in the scoring other players can get mighty upset if you hit it big, probably why you never see Who Dunnit in tournaments.
Quoted from Parzival:That’d be great, thanks!
I just send you PM

PM sent with the history.

If you set it to tournament mode, roulette alternates from losing to winning no matter what, you just have to keep track of it. My first game ever was a Who Dunnit. It's fun and different. Scoring can get way out of control and there are some things that could be fleshed out code wise, but I liked the theme and direction it was going.
Wanted: Stern or Bally/Williams Pin
Hi again.
At the risk of being a pest, I'm posting (again) that I'm hoping to find a nice pin here in the region.
I'm coming off a dispiriting experience buying a pin from a distant seller ($1K loss when the dust had settled), so I'm focused on finding something in the area that I can drive to and actually inspect first-hand, etc.
I would like to find a routed Stern title for c. $4K, such as IM, MET, or TWD. I can go as high as $4.2K for the right pin. Spending more than that on a Stern makes less sense when NIB from Stern, delivered, costs just $1K more.
With all due respect, I am *not* looking for anything but Stern or Bally/Williams, and I'm *not* looking for titles older than '93.
If you have a pin for sale or if you have any contacts who might have one for sale in my price range, any/all leads would be *much* appreciated! And yes, I have looked carefully - today and almost every day - for offerings on Craigslist. If there are titles there now that meet my criteria, they happen to be pins that either (a) I'm not interested in or (b) have what I perceive to be a low resale value and thus are better to avoid, etc.
Thanks for reading my post.

Many pins that fit your criteria can be found regionally on Craigslist. A simple 3 minute search brought these up:

Ya there should be a handful in the twin cities! With guardians and potc coming there may be a bigger selection on CL
Also check with the pinball warehouse.
Hey all. Anyone know a good source for a cocktail arcade machine? Or anyone have one they are looking to sell? Got a friend on the hunt for one.

Multicade I assume?

Search craigslist for pinball, or arcade. Lots of them this time of the year. You might check with Al at Action Pinball Warehouse in Fridley too.

I have a 2 player Ms Pacman cocktail. I would be interested in trading it in for something... Possibly towards a used PacMan Battle Royal if the price is right.

Are you (or is he) looking for any one specific game? I have a 2player Crazy Climber Cocktail table for sale. Haven't listed on Craigslist yet.
Brand new controllers on it. https://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=7426
If interested, let me know - or PM me
Anyone in the Twin Cities have a recommendation for who to call to clean a pinball machine?
I recently got one on CL, and it could use cleaning and new rubbers and such.
Thanks in advanced.

Quick reminder of the TNA launch on Saturday.

I think you should forget about routed and focus on HUO considering your luck. For 4300-4800 you could pick up any of these titles HUO within the TC if you are willing to wait a couple of months. Anyone know what NIB Sterns are typically going for these days?
Quoted from northvibe:I think nib pros are ~6k? Maybe just under....
When I was looking for a NIB MET Pro, I was quoted $5100, shipped. (ended up with MET Premium instead).
Quoted from Fezmid:When I was looking for a NIB MET Pro, I was quoted $5100, shipped. (ended up with MET Premium instead).
Just recently right? I was thinking they were low to mid $5k but with the prices people are asking for a pro I kinda forgot!

I bought a NIB Met Pro in August for $5100, not shipped.

I was thinking a 60-1 or 412-1 newer machine with LCD screen.
Quoted from GhostThruster:I bought a NIB Met Pro in August for $5100, not shipped.
Ah ok, my lack of sleep bumped that price up I know the lcd screen pros have a slight raise I price too

Yeah, it was in September or early October.
Quoted from rollitover:The "brenna scoop"
The guy came through! Well.. I know he tried to sell it out from under me multiple times before our agreed pickup time. So thank you to pinsiders that have more integrity than this guy.
This will be the ultimate Christmas present for my future wife. Her favorite movie(s) of all time. Heck even the dog’s name (my avatar) is Dr. Emmett Brown...
He had emailed me again the next day and said he had 2 offers for $2000 and was I sure I didn’t want to offer more. Congrats on the score. This is the only game I regret selling.

if you are naming your dog from BTTF, wouldn't the dogs name be Einstein?
Quoted from dudah:Heading up to Milwaukee tomorrow night, who's got a turd of a project game for me to revive?!
I've got a GTB Volcano I'd sell for $900. PM me if interested.
Anyone have any info on the tourney at Cancan Wonderland this Sunday? Or is the tourney at Tilt better? Going to be in town this weekend figured I would try make one of them.

CanCan Wonderland events aren't happening anymore. They had to pull most of the games. Tilt is a great option. There will be a Guardians of the Galaxy Launch Party in conjunction with the normal event. Have fun for me, I will be celebrating Christmas early with my extended family.

What happened to cancan?

Thanks for the info.
Quoted from Whysnow:What happened to cancan?
A disagreement about how to proceed between the game owners and building owners I believe. Some games are left, just most are gone.
