    FOUND Star Trek TNG

    Great game! If I didn’t have one I’d be looking for one too. Also owned twice.

    Should Classifieds be closed for comments other then Original Poster/Seller?

    Times have also changed. 10-15 years ago we had about 80% collectors and 20% folks only in it for profit. I think we now have more of the latter. As was stated already in this thread, we were all noobs at some point and it would be a shame to let a noob get scammed by overpaying. Leave the...

    Should Classifieds be closed for comments other then Original Poster/Seller?

    Instead of telling people they are not allowed to discuss or have an opinion in a public discussion forum…. Why not make the classifieds section closed to comments all together? Only the OP can add comments, modify or mark as sold. Somewhat like Kijiji…. Pinside also has that option to prevent...

    Data East Switch Matrix Problems

    You broke it. Seriously though, it’s obviously something you did. We can’t troubleshoot for you in this case. You have to go over everything you did when you removed and then installed the playfield. Sounds like you missed a connector or 2. Or connected them in the wrong place.

    To Infinity and Beyond - JJP Toy Story 4

    You should try to stop sugar coating things and tell us how you really feel! :) Agree with your statement BTW :)

    Pinball Dolly

    Dear god... Over $6k but can only carry 375lbs??? My WOZ weighs in at about 404lbs. My MM P3 will be even heavier! Escalera with the forklift and all the extra accessories(extra straps, big wheels, large toeplate, pinball plate, edge brakes) is about the same price and can do 1200lbs. Basic...

    SOLD The Simpsons Pinball Party (TSPP)

    Hard to believe Stern managed this and LOTR back-to-back.

    Have prices gone too far?

    Saw the pics now. Just as I thought.. It's still just a Congo... ;) JD and Congo are about the same value (according to sold games on Pinside). Throwing 2500$ worth of mods in a game doesn't increase it's value by that much (or more). I have over 3000$ of mods in my WOZ and certainly don't...

    SOLD Gilligan's Island Project $3700

    Now THIS is a great opportunity for someone to get a WPC title at a reasonable price. With a little elbow grease this thing will look good.

    Have prices gone too far?

    Yes they have gone too far. Hey if someone is actually willing to pay $10k for a fu@$&ng Congo I may have a $13k STTNG for them…. Speaking of that ad… If I had a friend asking me to list a $10k Congo for them I would tell them to get bent and list it themselves. From the description, since no...

    Have prices gone too far?

    What’s gone too far is the people treating this hobby as a quick money making scheme. As long as folks can flip NIB games for profit manufacturers will keep rising prices. No surprise there as the manufacturer is missing out on potential profit. It’s a business. It’s the people that are only...

    Pinball Dolly

    I use this: You can buy it from Nitro or any industrial equipment place. I bought mine from Doverco in Montreal. They have offices in Toronto as well. http://www.staircat.com/canada.htm It's stupid expensive (as much as a WPC title) but OMG I use it for so much more than just moving pins. The...

    Actually it is clearly listed in the “IN PRODUCTION” section.

    SOLD 4k virtual pin ready to go cabinet, just needs computer

    And keep in mind - especially for noobs - the PC setup to get it to work properly with all 3 screens for all games is by FAR the most complex and time consuming part. However this setup in the right hands can be made pretty awesome. Hell I hate virtual pins but I'd consider it if you were...

    SOLD The Addams Family, Powder coated trim, Colordmd, Full led's, CC playfield

    It’s also a niche market when you hit that price range for a 30-year old game. Not saying it’s not worth that but you need to find someone that is looking for that specific machine since you can buy a BNIB Stern Premium for the same money. New collectors probably prefer newer themes/machines.

    SOLD Original red Spider-Man No longer available

    Ok I came across as harsh but didn't mean to. I just meant that now with big LCD screens on all games, monochrome DMD games are starting to look dated. It was a general comment. Mostly applies to newer collectors/average joe who don't know much about the whole history of pins. The summer slump...

    SOLD Original red Spider-Man No longer available

    I'm not. Older DMD title + Seasonal summer slump.

    Hawkesbury

    It’s on MAACA. It’s not really “an event”. Not announced to the public. It’s an annual flea market for the local collectors at a bowling alley. Won’t even be 20 machines set up. I think the guy that runs it isn’t on Pinrev.
