Ok you're just wrong on so many levels.

All games, regardless of where the game ends up, use the SAME fuses. For example, all WPC95 games use the small 20mm european fuses. All wpc-89 and wpc-s use 4ag fuses. doesn't matter where it went. The only difference in fusing is the main line voltage fuse. (At 220 volts a 4 amp fuse is used, where at 120 volts an 8 amp fuse is used.) That is the ONLY difference in fuses. Yes the label will say "220 volt 4 amp" by the power box for Euro games. But that's the only label difference.

As for coin doors, that is country dependent. For example, most german machines use 3 slot conventional doors. the difference is the mechs. now UK and France tend to use electronic mechs. In this situation, if you are operating, yes the coin door will need to be changed to north american style. Stuff that is in the 2000s are probably Euro coinage. These are usually conventional coin doors, but with a single slot.

As for condition, i've seen U.S. games hacked up far more than any re-import. It's game dependent. Crap is crap, nice is nice. Country of operation really has zero to do with any of it. But hey, if you want to be a "pinball racist" and call all re-imports dirty crap, i guess that's your gig. But personally i look at things a lot like i look at people... on a one by one, individual basis. I really don't care what where they are from, it's all about condition. But that analysis has to be made on each individual machine.

Quoted from silver_spinner:

condition is king its true,.
but. with a reimport..
if you operate, right off the bat you need a new coin door that will allow us quarters to drop through the chutes correct (not the mechs( the actual chutes.)
reimports chutes are thicker, coins get jammed...or some are too small..
next, you can have little fuses everywhere (including main boards) instead of normal style fuses. incorrect tags concerning voltage and amperage per fuse throughout the game (confusing when you are working on the game).
reimports most often have cabinet issues, holes where plaques were drilled, wood that has fell out of bottom, so bottom sides of cab was drilled in the sides to hold bottom board.
there are way more things to do than change ac voltage, and most are filthy. traveling on a boat with sea salt doesnt do wood or metal good.
nothing is 100%, but the majority are bad.
i had a godzilla from germany that i had to do tons to it to make it USA worthy.
but heh, ill leave the reimports for you guys

Actually this is bull crap too.
ONLY u.k. machines had additional up-posts. There was a law in the U.K. that required games to be fully "skill based", and thus the law required additional up posts between the flippers and in the outlanes. This law was only in place for about 6 years before it was recalled (or just plain ignored by Stern), 1999 to about 2005.

Total game distribution to the U.K., for pretty much any title during this period, was never more than 100 units. So the number of games that made it back from the U.K. from Southpark to Lord of the Rings, was pretty damn small. For example Rob, the T3, Simpsons Party, and LotR you have experienced with this option are probably the ONLY ones that have this factory option in all of North America. And the software allows for the posts to be turned off, disabling them, if that's not your thing. Or you can just ignore the extra set of buttons next to the flipper buttons.

There is one exception to the "only UK" up post rule... Marvin at marvin3m.com ordered a new Stern with UK up posts, but obviously for the U.S. market. For the life of me i can't remember the title. But Stern only did this once and refused to do it again for Marvin. It might have been Ripleys... can't remember. So there's *one* game out there with these up posts that didn't go to the U.K. first.

Quoted from TheLaw:

The only re-imports I would stay away from are the newer Sterns that have all the weird crap out in them; like extra buttons and save posts. LOTR is long enough as is.

#159 9 years ago

As for proper re-import modification, it's really pretty easy.

1) re-jumper the transformer. If you have the connector pins and pin extractor tool, it takes about 2 minutes.

2) change line fuse from 4 amp to 8 amp. really this is optional, because running at a lower fuse rating doesn't hurt anything. But the fuse may blow due to it being under valued.

3) change MOV inside power box from 260 volts to 130 volts. MOVs are available at radio shack.
Most people don't do this. It's not really a big issue if you don't. the MOV shorts itself if it sees a voltage above it's rating. It's a power surge device. So at 260 volts, it's not a huge deal (instead of 130 volts.) Because most power surges are far far above 260 volts! so either way, it will blow.

4) change the coin door and/or mechs.
this is fully optional for most people. Only needed if you're operating the game, or you're just anal about these sorts of things.

Note there are some countries were re-imports tend to be more problematic. For example, south america. my experience has shown these people had very limited access to proper parts, so games tend to be more creatively repaired. I've had great experience with German games. The large german distributor (Novus) had a good parts distribution network. So German games tend to be in decent condition. UK games also seem to be pretty good. Holland/Belgium games are usually pretty darn nice too.

if any of us U.S. guys tries to cross the border with so much as a screwdriver, you'll be stripped searched and probed by Canadian border dudes for at least 3 hours. I'm not kidding about this. A work visa is required to work in CA. if you get caught and say "working" in any way shape or form, or you have any tools in your car, you are absolutely screwed. Personally i don't even like emailing canadians about repairs.

I have to agree with the above comment, with new tempered glass being $20 and PDI being $300. Also with "bent plastic" being like $5, that solves all my reflection issues for the most part, and at a price i can afford. (All the DMD games at the Ann Arbor pinball museum have a bent plastic glare guard.)

I have a decent and fully working Funhouse for sale in the brighton area $3200.

#679 9 years ago

on the funhouse thing, this particular game was a sorry story case. A boys/girls' club in royal oak had the game, and they were short on money. they have a nice facility but the city owns it, they just rent half the facility. they saw the funhouse on ebay for $5k and they wanted $4k. i told them it was just too much. but i ended up giving them near what they were asking because i looked at it as a sort of donation to their cause. So i'm just trying to not loose my butt too badly on this. Hence the pricing is, where it is.

They bought the game in 2000 from Big Toys. A wire came off the side scoop kickout coil, so basically the game was dead in the water from shortly after being purchased to now. So with some minor repairs and clean up the game was up and working. There was a second game too but it's an "off" title and really not worth much. i haven't even looked at that one yet.

I find it interesting that Rob is moving towards "cheese games", with his current favorite being Torpedo Alley.

#767 9 years ago

Note to self... get a shaq attack for the vfw and make it the vfw league finals game!!
(and make cancer rob shop it out too.) and for the semi-finals require head-to-head play on the PAIR of nba fastbreaks!

next thing you'll know, cancer will have a shaq attack and a laser wars at his house. look i made him play all the EMs and now he OWNS one. so i think if i make him play all the gottlieb system3 and early dataeast games, sooner or later, he'll come around...

does anyone have a Last Action Zero for sale?? i feel the need to torture rob even more...
Rob you will be happy to hear "come again!" will be at the vfw (DE simpsons) for your playing pleasure.

End of stroke switch improperly adjusted. basically really can't be anything else. aside from a stray loose wire, but that's doubtful and unlikely. most people don't really know how to properly adjust EOS switches and make a common mistake, which results in a blown fuse (or smoked coil.) we're running 300 games so i'm pretty in-tune with what constitutes upkeep too....

Anita does the shop work at Prestige. It's hit and miss with her. Sometimes she does a great job, other times not so much. If she's doing a more common bally/wms 1990s game she's generally pretty good. and the common dataeast stuff. but outside of the box, not as good. she's not a "pinball person", it's just a job for her. keep that in mind. it's not like having someone that really loves and lives pinball shop a game. but she does have years and years of experience. she can tear apart an Addams family, clean, re-assemble in record time for example, and does a decent job of it. i do not suggest her for playfield touchups though. she does decent cabinet work, at least most times. but a lot of this has to do with what other work pressures she has at the shop too. there's a lot of variables. she's generally paid per game not by hour (not always but usually), and this can influence how well she does on the work.

#2404 8 years ago

If you were going to use either prestige in walled Lake, or big toy in Sterling Heights, prestige is going to win hands down. The people at big toys are really screwing people as far as service and general work. I don't have much faith in them anymore now that Jeff Moore has left that business.

#2416 8 years ago

they are nice guys but their service rates are out of control. i repaired a high speed for a guy at his house. he had it first to Big Toys and the repair bill was $800 !! And they replaced rubber and put in LEDs, that's about all they did. I've been doing in home service for a long time and i've never gave anyone a $800 repair bill (or even $400 !) Heck i did a complete shop job for a guy with a Twilight Zone that was submerged in a flood, complete playfield stripped down and cleaned, new parts and rubber rebuilt flippers, and it wasn't even $400 (though he did tip). Big Toys may be nice guys but you will get screwed. At least with Games we Play the person they have doing the work (Anita) has been there for probably 10 years doing this job. At Big Toys, you get the "yonkle of the week".

#2445 8 years ago

I had a picture of the $800 repair bill but i can't find it. i'm not kidding about this. it was crazy. this isn't the only data point either with the new guys at Big Toys. i've had some other people i've done work for with similar experiences, though not $800 bad.

#2453 8 years ago

OK I found the invoice. I have another one somewhere that is $850 worth of repairs or something crazy like this too. I don't mean to throw anybody under the bus, but I thought that this was just nuts. Something just doesn't seem right over there now that Jeff or has left the store

#2458 8 years ago

Oh right you are I left his name on there. I deleted the graphic. In my opinion that was what I would call a sucker shop job. Where they maybe took off a few plastics to get it some lightbulbs and put new Rubber, but it was not what I would consider shop job in anyway shape or form. And $800 for this work seems nuts to me. But I had the advantage of standing there seeing the game in person. So it was easier for me to qualify the work.

#2729 8 years ago

steve (bgresto) only had a booth once about 3 years ago at kZoo. he hasn't done that show since then. He does come to the Ann Arbor show every year though, you can find him there.

Of course his former business partner "randy" lives in just outside zkoo. but beware when dealing with him. he will take your money, and you probably won't get a glass. even if you remove the 'alcohol issue' factor, he's just not able to make glasses right now from what i have seen. His heat press unit has a bad pump and needs to be replaced (expensive). also steve took back his printer and his computer. So i'm not entirely sure randy could even make a glass if his life depended on it. add to that randy can't do the cuts on the masks to make a decent glass due to his issues with alcohol. and randy doesn't use the right thickness glass, nor does he use tempered glass. (he gets plate glass from the local hardware store.) So just beware.

you're far far better off dealing with steve. he can bring your glass to the Ann Arbor show and you'll save significant money on shipping. Randy did bring "seconds" to kzoo a couple years ago and put them in the kzoo auction. but they were pretty bad quality compared to what Bgresto (steve) makes.

#2735 8 years ago

i think the stuff that randy brought to the kzoo auction was fine for wall hanging too. you couldn't put any of it in a game though. but for the wall OK. Randy keeps trying to kill himself... goes to ER... they "fix" him, and then he comes out and does the same thing again. it's an endless cycle. in the 3 years i've known him he's just gone from bad to worse to where he is now (which is beyond worse.) Frankly i don't know how he's even alive. Drinking a pint of vodka for breakfast does not prolong your life. last trip to ER was the worst, they didn't think he would live. But here here is still alive. If you ever met the guy you wouldn't understand how he's even vertical.

#2743 7 years ago
Quoted from SirScott:

Do you have his number?

you can't really call randy. he uses those throw away phones you can buy at party stores. he used to have a real phone, but it kept dying due to lack of funds. the only way to really get a hold of him consistently is to drop by his place. and frankly that's just scary.

#3550 7 years ago

the fun fest is actually for Duncan Brown. he wants to use it to make another "lost harry williams game" designed in the 1970s but never made by Williams. He did the Cyclone game at Chicago Expo shown last month, a harry williams design, and I supplied him the "Honey" game to use as the base for the conversion. Would love to get him another core so he can make another lost Harry Williams game.

We used to pay $12 a sheet for playfield glass. Now we pay $25. It's crazy, it was only about 4 or 5 years ago it was half the price. There are some ohio places you can get it cheaper, but then you have to transport it. The place we've always gotten it from is in Wixom, which is really close. But it's just gotten so expensive. At the last show we had it for sale at $40 a sheet and people were pissed. I don't know what to tell them. Glass is awful to handle and store. to give it away at $25 a sheet (which is what we sold it for 1.5 years ago) is just crazy in my eye, it's just not worth it. And it seems like a piece always gets broken in the process too, which kills the minimal profit involved. I would sell it at cost as a service, but the stuff is just so hard to move and transport and store, it's just not worth it.

#4714 5 years ago
Quoted from amkoepfer:

Email sent on duck hunt. Just need to know if the gun can come off somewhat easily for transport

Midway gun games don't allow the gun to come off easily, compared to say CCM or williams. Not that you can't do it, just it's not as easy as i would like it to be. I'm sure it can be done though...

#4721 5 years ago

The gun deck does not come off easily on midway games. Compared to Chicago coin or Williams where it does, the deck doesn’t flip or come off on the midway gun games

And the game is sold too

We are shooting for a VFW show at the end of September. but a lot has to do with how the virus does over the next 6 months. it's too hard to predict, so i don't want to go through what we did last year again (and frankly people that had paid for reservations don't want that either.) It was a crap load of work (i mean more than a regular one weekend show.) But tentatively the dates are October 2/3, 2021 (also have to look at the Michigan football schedule too, so can't make the date firm just yet... we don't want to be the same weekend as a football game.)

i end up fixing a lot of his games that were sold (to mostly newbies.) he's good for my repair business. if you're pinball educated he's absolutely no problem, you'll see what a game needs. but newbies often buy and don't see the potential issues. but that's pretty much how it is... every body was a newbie at one time, and education is not free. Now if a game purchase is done over long distance and there's issues, that's a different story. but for us locals, i don't see what he does (or doesn't do) as an issue. it's no different than buying from say an operator.

We have two Mr. Game pinballs, MotorShow and MacAttack. We shopped the playfields on both of them. MotorShow boots and goes into attact mode. But the video monitor and the video board are not working. MacAttack has working pinball boards too, but one of the EPROMs is messed up. And it too has monitor/video card problems.

If anyone would like both of them to work on, and return one to us repaired, they can have the other one for free. Needless to say these are very rare Zaccaria games. If interested just send a direct email to [email protected]
thanks!

We’ve been really going through the games at the VFW museum very closely and a couple I think should sell because I question long-term reliability. Just being frank…. We have a wico aftor. Really nice condition, really clean. A week ago it worked great. Now it does not boot. $500. We also have an allied leisure thunderbolt. This is a very early solid-state game. This game is working and playing, but p4 displays a little wonky, that’s the worst I can say for it. $350. Ground level pick up Brighton Michigan. Direct email best [email protected]
