    FS Stern Venom Limited Edition Pinball - New Condition

    Stern raised prices because they were shown by the greed of the flippers that they could get a whole lot more… why should they have left money on the table and let people with no skin in the game profit off of them? If you think otherwise no problem but I don’t put the increases in this hobby on...

    SOLD Iron Maiden Pro fully loaded - $9750

    I've had the same thought and sold machines because of it, if this is your only machine and you're like me at all you will miss it. There are loads of amazing games for a fraction of the costs of Spike 2 games if your tastes suit them, you can still find EM's in the +/- $1,000 range. I picked...

    SOLD Iron Maiden Pro fully loaded - $9750

    After owning the premium a while I really do like the Pro version of this game, it really keeps the ball moving, no sarcophagus lock or lift ramp to slow things down! Amazing game! GLWS.

    TIP Number of Plays means nothing

    I'm done trying MrMikeman, the juice isn't worth the squeeze for me and it gets me riled up :). These are just two camps who aren't going to see eye-to-eye and education hasn't helped in my experience. If someone thinks the earth is flat, so be it, not on me to convince them otherwise, it is...

    TIP Number of Plays means nothing

    When I first get a game and it is new and fresh I don't restart... but once I get to a point where I've got expectations on how far I feel like I need to progress to achieve whatever goal it is I'm looking to achieve I restart after the first ball most of the time. I think total balls played is...

    FS/FT Venom LE - ~800 Plays

    Sorry to hear that, you are right, that is pinball! GLWT! Venom is a great game, Prem/LE is the way to go too on this one.

    Etiquette

    A pinball show is only ever as successful as the games the general public generously bring. Bringing a game usually gets you free admission to the show and sometimes early access as well, I believe that was the case at this show too. Also an opportunity to showcase a game you have for sale...

    Etiquette

    There is an additional button by the left flipper button I believe to activate the magnet, it's intention is to be able to save the ball from going straight down the middle, as someone who owned the game for a while, it doesn't work that great, slow moving ones it can grab, anything with some...

    Thanks for posting Steve, looks like a good time, wish VFW and Allentown weren't always on the same weekend! Last time they weren't I went to both.

    SOLD Stern NASCAR new installed double cc playfield ff speakers and tons more

    Game looks great, I'm not a potential buyer so feel free to ignore me, but I think potential buyers would probably be looking for a good close up shot of the garage and the drain hole between the flippers, those things are usually pretty toast and your playfield looks amazing so show those areas...

    John Wick next from Stern

    I imagine Starburst was taking a bath on those CV they were blowing out at the time, can't imagine that was actual wiggle room... if the margin on a game for a distributor is truly $200 - $300 I don't know why anyone would sell pinball machines. How do you stay in business with all that capital...

    John Wick next from Stern

    The list gets even longer I guess if you consider a lot of those titles have multiple trim's available, good time to be in pinball if you're looking for NIB!

    FS [Pre-Order] John Wick is up!

    I'll take a guess... because that is how they buy the games and the rates fluctuate so much during any given day and the margins are so slim it is in their best interest to quote in USD, that way they don't have to eat a change in exchange rates and as a buyer if we want to use a forex reseller...
