I'm looking for a bg for a Wing Ding. Anything from a wall hanger to real nice considered.

#8668 7 years ago

Actually as I walked out of Central Waters brewery I thought I saw that they are having a Wing Ding fling thing on the weekend of June 11th. About 5 miles from where the game is.

I've got a Paragon fs. $1400. Posted on the WI pinball site.

I've got two BH that I'm looking to sell. Not really looking for trades.

1st one is very nice. Recently shopped and rebuilt with new Swemmer board. Pop bumpers, flippers, and kickers all strong. Plays great. Spinning motor works. All displays work. Led's for GI. Cabinet is nice with exception of some wood out of front of cabinet (see pics). Both bg nice. New tube from lower pf to upper. Good coin door. The power supply has been rebuilt and updated, all the pop boards have been updated, interconnect rebuilt with new wires. The tube is new polycarbonate with led to make it glow. Lower window lights converted to Standard voltage. $2150 with Swemmer board, or $1950 with old non working board that you may be able to repair

2nd one has a nicer cabinet. I did a little swapping of things with first one. Spinning motor works. Two displays in head work. Did not test under pf displays. No pf glass. Coil seem free, not burned or locked on. Does not have mpu or driver board, so may be good candidate for Pascal 4 in 1 board. Does have sound board. Some pf wear and planking. Good coin door. Inner bg is rough. $750.

#10186 6 years ago

I've got a decent Tee'd Off that I'm looking to sell. $1600.

Game is in good shape. Some cabinet touch ups. It plays good and everything works, but could use new rubber rings. No led's.

Has gopher topper and it works.

I've got pics.

Location is Franklin, WI.

Was there a couple of weeks ago, so don't know about potcle, but the rest are set for 5 balls per game. No replay, but can get an extra ball. 6 balls would be the same as two 3 ball games. Sweet. Thx Chris.

Wonder if they will somehow honor the tokens? Obviously can't do a one for one because of the bonus tokens.
Guess we're going to mpls around Christmas.

I have a few bucks worth. Oh well

I'll stop by and pick them up and my way to Mpls

Two for one pinball deal. I have two Skylab pinballs.

One is cleaned up and working, but has minor scoring issue (bonus doesn’t count properly) and balls to play (counts up to 6 not 5 at start up). Play field is real nice. Bg has some flaking. Cab is decent.

The second one is rougher and has more issues. Once a game is started, flippers and most switches work. Score reels work. Trough switch and bracket not hooked up some cut wires right there too. Play field is rougher, touch ups planking, cupped inserts. Bg is flaking and faded. Cab is ok.

I have pics. Located by Milwaukee.
$1100 for the pair.

My wife bought our first two when she and some friends went to an operator that was selling games (I had to work). Then the next time we did a warehouse raid she made me buy 13 more! Between us and our friends we got 40 that day. Who am I to say no.
My count got as high as 45 ish. Now have downsized to 25 ish.

Just picked up a project Future Spa in a package deal that would be nice to sell.
Pf, bg, and cabinet all pretty nice. The bad is that the most boards will need to be looked over.
I have pics but wasn’t sure how many, if any, I can post in this thread.
Located Franklin, WI
$975

Selling my Flash. Light project Flash pinball. Overall very good condition. Playfield is very nice with a little wear. Backglass has some paint flaking but very presentable. Cabinet is very nice. A couple of bumps but color is real nice. The game has been updated to a System 7 cpu board, was a System 4 with all modifications done (not by me). I shopped the top side of the playfield. Cleaned all plastics (top left is broken), posts, pop bumper caps (put leds in them), all lights working, all switches working including drop targets. Game worked at that point. A few days later went to work on underside of pf. Turned game on. Came up with 04 in ball in play. Turned game off and on a few times to see if it was battery issue. Nope. Have manuals and coin box. Time to move on. Game is taken apart and in garage for easy loading. Have pics. $875. Located by Milwaukee.

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.

Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:

Hey guys,
I’m in a bit of a pickle, I just won the Flipper Football NOS playfield that’s totally crated from AuctionMasters in Coon Rapids.
It needs to be picked up TODAY apparently and I’ve already paid for it. Is there any saintly pinsider who can grab my beloved playfield and either hold onto it till I arrange shipping, or can bring it to a Fastenal or other shipping terminal?
You will obviously be paid for being a hero. PLEASE help me out here. I love my Flipper Football and I’m going to have this playfield Clearcoated and totally done up for my game.
PM me if you’re the total badass who can help me.

I also got a piece from this auction without knowing it needed to be picked up the next day. Would be nice if they posted it some where, maybe they did but I didn’t find it, when it needs to be picked up. I got lucky in that my sister-in-law lives about 2 miles away and was able to help. I’m on the way there now. I think there was a phone number on the website so next time i know to call and find out first.
Good to hear you were able to get it figured out.

I’ve got a brand new Aerosmith lower cabinet for sale. I realize that I will not be getting to the project that I had planned this cabinet for. No coin door. No side rails. Speaker, ball shooter, and generic wiring are in cabinet from when I got it. There are a couple screw ‘poke thru’ from inside screws. One is from tilt mech. Other is towards the back right. Can’t really see them but running fingers over cabinet you can feel them. I’ve got pics.
I’m in the southern burbs of Milwaukee.
Delivery to MGC is possible. Central WI is also possible.
Asking $500.

Asking for a friend that’s not on ps and lives by Blainebrook, are there any tournaments/leagues by there, or semi-close?

#19157 1 year ago

Tournament generally every Wednesday night, and one Saturday per month (I think). Registration for Wednesday’s starts around 6:30, rounds start at 7:00

Thanks. I’ll let him know.

Quoted from Dakine747:

If anybody’s in the Milwaukee area today, there’s an estate sale at 5202 W Roosevelt. This is day 3 (final) of the three-day sale. Williams Gulf Stream marked down to $500! Plays perfectly, and incredibly fast too. Playfield 8.5/10 and backglass 7/10 (some minor flaking). Can’t post a photo here. There’s three other machines, all EM’s, but didn’t get photos. One’s a wood-rail. Wraps up at 4:00 pm.

I take it you were there as you said GS played great. Are all em still there?

#19912 8 months ago
Quoted from Dakine747:

Dang, just now saw this. And yeah, all four were still there. The Gulf Stream was the most expensive. All the others were around $200-$400 and said "may need repairs". They looked to be in great shape too. It was a huge sale by Landmark Estate Sales. TONS of mancave stuff. I bought a framed EBD LE backglass in pristine condition for $45, a working yellow neon Miller Hi Life clock for $25, a whole bunch of LED strip kits w/remotes for less than five bucks each.
Scroll down for photos. There was SOOOO much more than what's shown here:
https://www.estatesales.net/WI/Milwaukee/53216/3768747

I saw the EBD LE and thought that would be nice to get. Glad you were able to get some stuff.
If you’re looking to sell the BG I saw that user pincoin just picked up the game a few days ago with bad bg.

Quoted from Timerider:

Question... I'm thinking about selling one or two of my (solid state) pins to the company I work for here in SE Wisc.
But already told them I would NOT support them. Are there techs in the area who would come on-site for repairs if needed?
(I have not decided which machine... but probably something like Gorgar or Firepower.)

Try Paul Reno. 262-835-2892 he’s on ps but I don’t think he checks it too much. He knows his stuff.
