What scale cars are you running?

64th and man are they detailed. Not anything like the old days for sure.

#16860 2 years ago

Looking for a Bally 6803 board. The one I have is pretty bad and I can’t find any new reproduction. Working would be great but non working is ok if it’s not too bad.

#16861 2 years ago
Quoted from MustangPaul:

Awesome.
I have a bunch of those, some of which are pretty heavily modified.
Haven't raced them in a looong time, might have to dust them off.

#16862 2 years ago

Quoted from Tallon:

Awesome! Please grab me a $20 ticket and I will subtract that from what you owe. Stranger things has definitely caught my interest after putting some time in it recently.

PM

Good energy and endeavor. Let me know how I can donate remotely, and participate in getting pins into the hands of charitable organizations that can serve kids and families struggling. I’m sensitive and responsive to that sort of thing.

Ha, and I just announced this on our Facebook page before stopping back here and seeing this! See more info there!

#16873 2 years ago

I'm looking for suggestions on getting a game from the east coast to Minneapolis. I'd like something reliable, while trying to not break the bank. Feel free to message me direct or comment here.

Thanks in advance!

Answering my own question, sorta... looks like some people on pinside (2-3yrs ago) have had luck with Michelle Bianchi with Beltmann Integrated Logistics. Can anyone share recent experiences with this company/person?

#16875 2 years ago

Are you shipping legs on or palleted? From where on the east coast?

I've used her twice for pins shipped with legs on always scary but that way they can't drive a forklift through it apparently. I had my ruby red Wizard of Oz shipped up from Arizona to the Minneapolis area and not a scratch on it took about seven days.

I would use them again for sure.

#16877 2 years ago
Quoted from Vitty:

From Philly/Jersey area. Not sure on legs yet, trying to determine the best route. Assumed legs off and wrapped was safe, but maybe not.

OK, this is great info. I may try to have them ship it with legs on. I'm assuming you have the head folded and wrapped?

Also, thank you both for the replies!

#16878 2 years ago

Im shipping 2 games shortly and have shipped a bunch in the past, the buyer always used Michele and I've palleted the games nicely. If the seller will pallet the game you can have it all nicely wrapped. Legs on errrr, hope they don't use a fork lift but they probably will and that is added scare. May have to pay the extra to get michele to white glove the game then. Easily 400-500 to ship now days.

#16879 2 years ago

Any WI locations with Godzilla yet?

#16880 2 years ago

Ye olde Pinball bug has bitten again and It looks like I will be driving from NW Minneapolis to Eastern New Jersey in the coming month or so in order to bring a game back. It'll be my minivan making the trek so really only have room for one game each way. If anyone has a need to get a game from MN to NJ (or somewhere along the line) reach out.

yep wrapped with moving blankets and head was folded down and then shrink wrapped also make sure you request that they bring those cardboard corner protector things for the legs that will ensure it doesn't get scratched or give it an extra layer of protection. I worried about that game for the seven days it was on the truck but it was flawless.

Madison Pinball said they are getting one today. They didn’t say which location though.

I/O Bar in Madison. Getting set up now.

Been about a year but I had a pin shipped from NYC to southeast Wisconsin for around $300.

Legs on. They did a great job wrapping. Only issue was a bent leg leveler.

#16887 2 years ago

If anyone is able to bring a pin from Topeka to the Twin Cities in the near future please send me a message!

#16889 2 years ago

Headed down to Milwaukee and maybe further like Chicago this weekend most likely. Maybe further if there’s a lot of interest. PM with hauling needs.

#16890 2 years ago

Going to be listing a Bally Viking soon. Has a CPR playfield and plastics, backglass is mint, cabinet is good with typical bumps. Everything works as it should. Lots of new parts. PM if interested.

#16891 2 years ago

Going to Cudahy, Wisconsin for a concert Saturday. Any place we should hit on the way back?

I already asked you just a few days ago about a pin in the Indy area. But sounded like you weren’t going that way anytime soon. I’ll have to see if it’s still available if this would be in your “maybe further” category.

#16893 2 years ago
Quoted from s1500:

I'm somewhat shocked there would be anything happening in Cudahy that's worth traveling for.

Headed down Saturday. Back up Sunday.
Have room for a few on the way down and up.

Anyone in the area want to unload their EHOH premium unto me? I'm on the hunt.

That's my hometown so watch it. LOL. I was wondering the same???

if you don't find one let me know, i have a few left on my 2022 allotment from Stern.

#16898 2 years ago
Quoted from isJ:

Speaking of Pinball Map and locations: we got four games back on route. St. Paul's Bark and the Bite -- a small BBQ restaurant with great brisket, hush puppies, and a full bar.
Their soft open is slated for tomorrow and their hours are currently pretty limited to start. Pop in and show them that more games would be a welcome addition to their establishment!
Right now the four games are Theatre of Magic, AFM, TWD Pro and Star Trek Pro. We will rotate games in and out of there as time goes on.
All games are $.50/play. Wash your hands after grubbing out and drop some quarters! If you notice anything broken don't hesitate to PM me.

I've stopped by a couple times since I saw this and really enjoyed my time. Super solid 4 pin lineup in a nice spacey lowkey area. Plenty of space and seating options around the pinball that's in its own space away from the bar seating and food seating area. GF and I have been pretty careful covid-wise when going out and it checks a lot of our boxes. Hasn't been super busy and it's in a big space which isn't always easy to find in St. Paul, and there is a back entrance/small patio connected to the pinball which is an added plus. The ribs have been my favorite thing so far. Recommended. Thanks for sharing!
