    I have a very large collection of used pinballs that I have saved over the 15 years collecting. When I say large 200 to 300. Is the any after market use for these shinny babies ? I am sure there has to be some in use for tournament trophy's. What about signs or art sculptures ? Yes I know it would be heavy. Any one have pics of imagination turned pinball art ?

    Are they real bad? Maybe put them in the parts vibrator and see if they shine up.

    Great ideal. Is that from TZ ?

    I think I saw a pic of someone's game room where they'd done this.

    I sold about 50 used pinballs less than 2 months ago to Yelobird and he wanted more. I believe he was filling a gumball machine full of used pinballs. You may want to reach out to him and see if he wants more. Used pinballs seem to sell pretty fast each time I have listed them for sale.

    Ball baron also buys back used balls for a discount on your next order from him.

    I wanted to check on Pinside before popping on a gumball machine from Ebay to store / display my old balls, excuse me, old PINBALLs, anyone have one you would sell?
    Prefer round or dome era machines but would consider 70's model rectangular unit.

    PM me.
