Anyone know of a tech that would be willing to do in house service in Grand Forks? I've learned a lot in the last few years in regards to maintenance, but thought it would be good to learn first hand from someone. In house would be nice, as my pins are in a basement with curved stairs and moving them really sucks.

You might want to give John Ross a call, he might be willing to travel but he would probably charge you mileage but I don't know for sure. 612-747-8458.

Second that.
John has always maintained
that he is willing to travel.
All comes down to schedule and cost.
Give him a try, he knows his stuff.

John is actually coming to my place today to look at a couple games. He's the best.

I third this. He came to my place when I got my first machine, let me ask a ton of questions, and fixed minor stuff I didn't even know was broken. Top notch!

Thanks all, will give him a call today! If anyone else is closer and wants to swing by play some pinball, make some money, and help with my Addams Family (Fuse 114/115 error), let me know! I know it's a common issue, so I am trying to troubleshoot it myself too, but would still appreciate some tech hands on guidance!

Have you asked in the Addams Family club?
I will be listing up an imamaculate Baywatch. Comes with legs and pinballs. Unfortunately more than 600 plays in the last 12 years
Seriously though. It is very nice, has a REAL ColorDMD, EnerGI Maestro light board (custom light dimming, no relay clicks with the flashers), had a full topside teardown in November 2017, Titan rubbers, all mechs cleaned and resleeved, no wear on the pf, Comet 2SMD LEDs throughout in Natural White and I'm sure some other things that I'll think for the listing.

Will there be a christening? A "launch party"?
If so, what sort brown-nosing do you respond to best, for those of us presently lacking invites?
ebay.com link: FATHOM Pinball Machine BY BALLYS Watch Video
I think this is the guy from Forest Lake with those buying pinball signs I've seen at gas stations around that area. Pretty sweet machine compared to the normal machines he sells.

Yeah, it's gonna require quite a bit
of work and resources. Probably doesn't even qualify as "players" condition.
Got in on the bidding early but up and over $1500 now and just don't want to sink $$$ into it
Good for someone with the time and money though.

FYI... This guy has used multiple accounts to bid up his own auctions in the past.

Did you see it in person? What kind of work and resources do you think it needs?
Quoted from Minneapolispin:FYI... This guy has used multiple accounts to bid up his own auctions in the past.
Yeah, not cool at all.
Quoted from LTG:Getting closer. Only 1,499 days to SS Billiards 50th Anniversary party. The Golden Goose. LTG : )
What?! We missed the 1,500 day celebration?! Not cool....
Quoted from FatPanda:Did you see it in person? What kind of work and resources do you think it needs?

Actually sent him a pm through eBay asking if he was willing to show it but he didn't answer my question.
You can judge condition for yourself on ebay.
Quoted from LTG:Getting closer. Only 1,499 days to SS Billiards 50th Anniversary party. The Golden Goose. LTG : )
Today is August 13, 2018 so that means that 1499 days from today would be September 20, 2022.

It's a Tuesday.
Tentative plan is cover pool tables because of food. Pop and hot dogs and cheese pump all day. 10 slabs of ribs from Famous Dave's, a round of pizza from Pizza Lucé , A pinball tournament. All the pinball machines on free play. Very similar to the 40th anniversary party. Only for this one I'm hoping for souvenirs. Shirts or mugs or something.
A customer appreciation party.

I have the guy in Forest Lake's cell #. At least it worked last winter when I bought pinbot from him. I agree on his eBay practices. He didn't have paypal and it seemed like he never planned to sell it via eBay. He kept saying the buyers backed out. I paid $1000 for pinbot. it is definitely players condition. I have dropped $1000 getting to better condition.
I just realized I'll be in Minneapolis from Wednesday (late) until Thursday early. Any suggestions on where I should go to play? Going to be staying near PBS.

It was your post that sparked my inquiry
Great lineup BTW!
What are your hours? Might head there right from the airport
Quoted from tbaum:Might head there right from the airport
Easy to get to from the airport. I take it you will have a rental car.
Quoted from MustangPaul:Easy to get to from the airport. I take it you will have a rental car.
Probably will just take Lyft everywhere. Once I get into the city, I'm more or less in all day meetings in the same place... When I'm not playing pinball

There's a bus stop not far from S.S. Billiards that goes straight to the cities. Thank goodness too - I walked there a few weeks back from downtown Minneapolis area, and didn't have it in me to walk back.
Quoted from roffels:and didn't have it in me to walk back.
If you can wait until I close I'd have given you a ride.
