    WTB Drop Target Reset Plate for 3 bank Williams

    Starburst (aka. Playdium Store) places regular orders with the big parts suppliers. Call them up and ask to speak with Doug in their parts department and he can probably add it on his next order and save you the hassle of shipping a tiny order. You'll still need to get it to Windsor from...

    Dr@No's fun filled (and often long-winded) restorations

    Thank you sir. I normally don't condone such gratuitous modification, but I always wanted to try this on an SS. I've gone all of April and May without posting here. If you've seen any of my other threads (on various forums) I opted to create separate threads for my conversion project (Fireball...

    CPR Playfield Impact on Price?

    I certainly would not undertake a CPR swap with the express purpose of making money. There are many easier ways to "gussy up" a machine if flipping is your game. I would reserve this level of work/expense for something I truly loved. Personally, if I had two machines side by side and one had an...

    SOLD Hit The deck

    Very nice machine! I had the pleasure of playing the add-a-ball version (Neptune) at my home for about a week while I was holding it for a friend from out of town. Very rare bird and beautiful art. The DC coils on this game also make it a lot more snappy than a regular wedghead. I love how...

    CPR Playfield Impact on Price?

    Your current playboy is more than acceptable from what I recall. I don't see the value of the machine spiking by $750 USD by adding a CPR. Adam is bang on. A worn playfield will devalue your game so there is a much larger value gap to bridge with a new repro. I would much rather buy a machine...

    The OFFICIAL "Hey, I got a new machine" thread

    Well, this is what happens when you commit to the same game from two different sellers. Quicksilver doesn't exactly grow on trees so I just went ahead and bought both :D Submitted for your approval... QS #2

    The OFFICIAL "Hey, I got a new machine" thread

    What he said ^^^ :) I used to avoid classic Stern pins and, after grabbing my first Meteor last year I have gained a newfound respect for most of these pins. They have simple and fun objectives and, while there is usually one scoring strategy that is most lucrative, the scoring opportunities...

    The OFFICIAL "Hey, I got a new machine" thread

    Well done Adam! As soon as I saw the ad I knew there would be a million guys trying to lowball this seller to see if he didn't know what he had on his hands. I don't think this guy was running an "auction". If that were the case the machine would probably still be in his hands as he took more...

    The OFFICIAL "Hey, I got a new machine" thread

    I sold my Medusa not too long ago. Neat game for sure. Here's another new addition. Just got it on legs and just taking a look at the playfield while I also dealing with some board and transformer issues. Needs a good top-shop but playfield and parts all look pretty tight. It should clean up...
