Quoted from RustyLizard:Who got the good deals down in Lacrosse?
RustyLizard Someone who knew I scored the deals said this was posted about here. I got WCS and Congo. Both play great, could use some some attention (Congo a bit more worse for wear with some gremlins to chase). Found out when the guy was gonna be there, called first thing to beat 100 other people, paid sight unseen over the phone and hoped for the best and got lucky. Wanted Congo but like WCS more than I thought I would.
Quoted from WildRover:Anyone looking to sell a Willy Wonka LE (JJP kick lately)?
Good to see you continue to break out of the newer Stern lifestyle!
I've been on the lookout for a Tales from the Crypt if anyone's thinking of selling within somewhat driving distance!
Quoted from Vitty:Vitty's pinball garage will have an LE Foo shortly as well Always welcome to come try it out!
I can vouch for the niceness and welcomeness of Vitty’s garage. Just be ready to not let his kid hit himself with the door.
And if you’re in SE MN and want to check out a FF Pro without a line, I’m always happy to welcome friendly pinsiders!

I found one for you, in your own backyard!
Selling @wildrover's BKSOR that he wanted to buy back from me, but he's getting a new car and people aren't buying his pins fast enough so I'm trying to make him feel like crap.
Quoted from Waxx:BalkeBoy That's a nice looking game. I do love some BKSOR.
It absolutely is. One of best Spike 2 Pros with a good match of challenge for the level of depth to get through.
Thinking about listing my nice player's condition Congo for trade...
Good: ColorDMD, Flipper Fidelity Speakers, New Mantis weldment chute, epoxy and paint matched fixed chipped volcano tip, new shooter assembly, new pop number. parts, all new leg everythings and protectors, new jump ramp, some new plastics (with extras), stand up decals, Comet LEDS.
Bad: Cabinet dings and scrapes with right side fade, 2 inserts partially worn, 1 worn off. New art blades from RetroRefurb that likes to make them way too long with no hinge bolt holes so the hole circles I made are okay but not magical. I did lots of upgrades to make it look as good as it plays without sanding the cabinet for new decals.
Open to trades thrown like other 90 B/W DMDs (or a few other Data Easts), classic Sterns and Ballys, maybe something newer. People seem to have good luck on here so thought I'd try!
She did have a TON of messages for her Laser War. She thought it uncomfortable that people kept asking when the buyer was coming and they could be there earlier with more cash. I said that's just us pinheads itching for the next score. She asked if she sold it for too little and I said barring any catastrophic board issues, yes because why lie. She was just glad to get it out of the house, and I was very appreciative held it for the first person to message her at the original price.
I hope it's only $16 in parts! It's got some battery leakage, seeming electrical flipper issues, and the loudest Data East speaker hum I've ever heard, but I haven't looked yet because you don't look a gift horse under the playfield!
Foxxstone_80 Nice! Yeah, I asked her if she'd mark it pending but she said she'd hold it for me. I didn't want to sour anything by telling her what she has in store for the next 24 hours.
skink91 If I had to guess, it was his cutesy ad non-ads saying he wasn't really listing a game but instead his "Elegant Lady named E the Third is desiring a new escort, as she is a barely molested beauty of 35 tickles" stuff.
Kinda funny and clever but maybe not okay to pretend you're not selling by being goofy about it? He now has a normal ad up so maybe that was the wrist slap to follow whatever rule it is. To sell a game in here, you gotta say you're selling a game I guess!
Quoted from Jason_Jehosaphat:Please don't quote me if you're don't know or remember what I wrote, in particular if you include the word "molested," something I most certainly did *not* write or imply. If a date - which is what in fact I did write - is to you the same as an assault, you should probably get some help. Thanks.
I've thought up a half dozen smart ass replies, but they wouldn't make either of us feel good, and I just don't have energy or care to stir up pointless pinball drama. There's plenty already.
My intent wasn't misquoting you out of malice, but a joke about your joke post, and I'm sorry if I angered you or hurt your feelings. I'll go get some help. Good luck with your sale and finding a date for your pinball machine.
