Quoted from Colsond3:

I’m seeing double....another HH.
Actually, this is my old one that I sold two years ago...coming back for a second ass whoopin.
Didn’t expect him to call or be selling it, so I’ll be listing the other one I just bought home a few weeks ago (on the right in pic). No need for two. It needs an MPU and the backglass was totally shot, other than that it’s pretty nice. I threw a BG in it that I had hanging on the wall. Better than nothing, but it does have some decent flaking at the bottom.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

And how much would you be selling it for?

Finally made it to the thread! BH from today's travels & 8 Ball from Thursday. A few more & I'll catch up to Colson. A few 100's that is.

Squeezed in a pickup between weather systems here in the NE. 3 hours round trip. Thank you mother nature for cutting me some slack!

Quoted from Kkoss24:

My 12 year old got it in house with me now I have to wait until evening to recruit another adult to bring downstairs no need to push it now .My second pin ever bought first in April I just showed up home with both my wife’s face was priceless.I bring it home then fight it out instead of other way around lmao!!!Thsts how I roll !
[quoted image][quoted image]

That's the only way to go about buying pins regarding the wife. She'll get used to it after awhile. Or not..

#16408 3 years ago
Quoted from Pinkitten:

I love this pic because of the bubble wrap - always be sure to use the right amount of cardboard or bubble wrap to keep the head off the rails!
[quoted image]

True. Put the bubble on the rails though. Not on the glass. Creates a possible pressure point on the glass.

Quoted from the96stang:

I agree. I've bought 102 pinball machines this year about 60 since march

And you've all been decent enough to pass on machines to fellow pinheads. Which helps continue this hobby that we love. And keep machines alive.

Quoted from JethroP:

Who would spend 60K for a wife?

If your married, it's too late! 60k is a bargain.

#17458 3 years ago

Nice Colson.
Yeah, it's a serious sellers market right now. Low inventory & you'll most likely over pay for a house. At least interest rates are low. Good luck. See ya soon.

#17468 3 years ago
Quoted from snyper2099:

A devil? Nah... Maybe you could somehow convince others in the thread you are not just a common flipper though... but I doubt it. Besides it’s nearly impossible to convince anyone on this site of anything.
When you go buy the games are you like tingling nervous and stuff like what if they change their mind and you can’t flip the game for some horrific reason? You may as well be flipping 80’s Camaros and Cadillacs.
“Bringing a game home” is completely different than cramming as many as you can fit into a storage unit and only focusing on buying what you know you can flip. Others may have an I don’t care attitude and that’s fine but it at least “taints” or at minimum, devalues the other user’s posts in the thread when they just got a new game into their “home arcade” that they have been wanting on for years. Carry on!

You're way off base and out of line.

Some of my games are 3, some 5. Depends on difficulty. And some games have carry over progressive stuff. Which 5 ball games help.

#19506 3 years ago

Set up and ready to play both of these bad boys. Replaced a few bulbs, little tune up and got them playable. So psyched to have an 1812 back in the lineup.
Definitely one of my favorite games in all of pinball.
Very nice. So you'll be selling the Spidey soon?

Quoted from Colsond3:

She didn't even let me move it into place.
Me: Let me run and get an Allen key.
Her: I’m cutting the wrap off.
Me: I’m taking the glass out, let me go get a new sheet.
Her: Yeah...I’m gonna put the balls in, drag my step stool over and hit the start button. Who needs glass?
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Spectacular. Lmao.. Where can I get a Bally neon?

#19648 3 years ago

Thanks. I have one on order. Now I can pester Colson about other things. Lol.

Just picked this up at an estate sale today. Great deal and less than 5 minutes away from home.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

The theme is quite amusing & totally 70'/80's. It's a challenging game. I love mine. No cab fade. Which is rare. Enjoy.

Quoted from EJS:

Yeah backglass is about an 8 there are some cracks in the paint but pretty good for system 1
The playfield has a little insert wear in the middle but not enough to justify a new playfield in my opinion.
It appears the little transformer is completely shot

Bummer. Small transformers are hard to come by.

Quoted from moat-pin:

Your daughter buys pinball machines!? Youre my idol. I’ll let you know in 20 years if I have also succeeded as a father.

Yeah, when she got her own place, I offered for her to take one of my machines. She did one better and I found her a Deadpool and she bought it. Now she's moving again and doesn't have space, yet. Lol. I'm sure she will find a spot in due time. Meanwhile, I'll keep it safe. Haha.

Bought an em collection. Most not working correctly... but I've got all winter! Already have what I want in newer games ( or cant afford it). Project solid state games are either unobtainium or complete trash or way overpriced... so e m it is! It will keep me tinkering anyway!

Very nice. If you care to unload any, let me know? I'm right down the road. Enjoy..
