Re: WTB Blue Chip or 1970s Similar

How do you feel about 2" flipper games. I have 3 (all AAB) and would consider selling one of them.

Re: WTB Blue Chip or 1970s Similar

His ad started at $400 obo and then turned into $500 obo. Maybe he is hoping for an offer over asking price. Not usually how I think of best offer but some people do.

Re: 1930's pins

I have a Baby Leland from 1933. It's pretty simple in design. There are some though that can be very intricate mechanically. The mid to late 30s had some electro-mechanical designs. The tough part can be sourcing missing parts and documentation to repair.

Re: If you're in Saint Paul...

Sounds like my kind of place. It's always a thrill for me to see a bunch of old EM arcades on location.

Re: Ball Bowler any condition wanted

No I ended up selling it. I discovered if I am going to have a ball bowler (which I probably shouldn't) it needs to have multiple lane sections. I have a tight corner at the basement entry and low ceilings that make it tricky getting something of that length in. I actually have owned 3, and had a Ba...

Re: Ball Bowler any condition wanted

I'd like to buy this for myself, but I've flirted with the ball bowler fantasy enough to know my 350sq. foot gameroom space isn't very accommodating.

Re: FS: 1965 Flipper Pool (NOT MINE) - $275

Game has been sold. Thanks for posting though. Was getting more interested as the week went by but couldn't get over there during the week.

Re: FS: Star Rocket project - $150/obo

Yeah, this is definitely something I would normally buy. The type of project where a little love gives gratifying results. Just freed up a couple spots and focused on something else though currently. I'll have to see what pans out.

Re: WTB: Gottlieb Dimension head (or parts head)

I agree. I still think I'd probably buy the 2001 head. For $50 it's a nice back-up plan. Actually if you are so inclined it may be a cheap and resourceful way to make a complete machine. It's nice that the paint will be correct. I guess it all depends on your skill set and level of motivation which ...

Re: WTB: Gottlieb Dimension head (or parts head)

No dice from my guy. I thought that may be the case but worth a shot. The 2001 head may be the next best option. The lighting will be a bit different and probably quite a bit different mechanically but it's at least a feasible starting point. Some guys with a schematic and a pile of parts could buil...

Re: WTB: Gottlieb Dimension head (or parts head)

Ah that's you? I didn't make the connection on Pinside. Congratulations on the pickup. Super cool game. I sent an email to a friend that deals in EM arcades and pinballs. It's a longshot but he may have something. Somebody somewhere likely has a Dimension head squirreled away.

Re: WTB someone who can triple thick a glass for me

I agree. I have had good luck with Triple Thick over the years. With that said it seems to have a mixed success rate. I have a friend that had a sealed Heat Wave glass with ink that delaminated in big chunks. It's a good option for a glass that you want to "save" if it's deteriorating heav...

Re: WTB Jukebox

I have this old Seeburg 220. It plays and is decent cosmetically. With some work could be really nice. https://janesville.craigslist.org/atq/6099723036.html A friend of mine just sold this restored 222 for $4k. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Seeburg-Model-222-Stereo-Jukebox-from-1958-59-/351887149546?hash=...

Re: FS: 1971 Williams Action Baseball Pitch and Bat Game (Project) $700

Nice looking game Todd. Was this used in a commercial or something? Just curious about the Prop # on the front.
