My friend sold one for $20k a few months before the remake announcement. Those days are over (thank fuck!)

Shakers don't damage games. I have a ton of games with shakers. It's commercial equipment, it's fine. Also the game will have uncompressed Stereo sound....superior audio to the original.

Me! But I rarely post here anymore so dunno if that counts. :)

Actually it's the opposite. They sell out of the #'d Limited Editions - that guarantees they've got a minimum batch sold & they're in the clear...Premiums and Pros are the gravy profit.

Yeah I'm with ya...I'm pretty vocally anti-colorbomb, hoping I'll have some impact on people who want to impress everyone by making their games to look like skittles diarrhea :) Although I must confess...I have one game that's a tad colorbomby lol ...Congo. The guy I bought it from had all...

You don't have to use colored LEDs under plastics. Come by my house sometime and check out my LED'd games, including Getaway. Cointaker's 2-LED (dome style) bulbs look fantastic under plastics in GI. Sometimes I'll use PBL's 4-LED if it's covered enough that your eye won't see it....or a CT...

Same management...but Stern had/has Steve Ritchie, Pat Lawlor, George Gomez, Dennis Nordman, Lyman Sheats....key Bally Williams talent that DE/Sega never had. Well, Lyman worked on a few DE games like Tommy. :) Stern's SAM-era games have felt more "Wililamsy" than the Stern Whitestar or...

LED flashers can be really great but not always necessary. THe "all on top" style are great of inserts if the LED is facing straight up. The "all around" style is great for flasher domes if you want a more distinct color on Blue, green, pink, purple domes. Yellow or Red are pretty much the...

Metallica Pro is ~ $4500 Metallica Premium is ~$6500 Metallica LE is gone ;) Not a code issue. Board issue. You most likely have a bad mosfet transistor. Check the manual and find out which row or column contains the stuck lights. It will tell you which transistor is associated...

-There's no reason it shouldn't be programmed to notice a ball that's gone back in the trough. Seems like that would just be standard code that gets transferred from game to game. Check the trough jam optos in the switch test...make sure they're functional. -Flasher bulbs burn out. They're...

I had an AFM and was bored of it within a week. :) You're right, it isn't a $6000 pin...I sold the boring AFM for $8200. :) :) :)

Yeah, no one wants Addams Family, Twilight Zone, STTNG, Monster Bash... lol Sterns that are highly desired & keep going up in value: Simpsons, POTC, LOTR, Family Guy, Tron, AC/DC, Ironman, Spider-Man, etc.... Nothing wrong with licenses - not only are they often excellent games - but certain...

SUP! Yeah, but I've never seen that issue before...could be a short. The mini pin is pretty easy to remove. Disconnect the molex connectors under the PF. Remove the "apron" plastics on the pini pin, there are two screws there. Then 2 screws near the back. Lifts right out and you can check...

They did comic book version of X-Men. Still...good license. :)

That's purist talk, and as a purist, I agree - but to most people the difference is minimal. A video game is still a video game. Pinball is physical with real wood, metal, plastic, lights, physics. Virtual Pin is not even remotely the same experience. If people sit down and think "OK, I'm...

It's totally different than vid collecting. Classic dedicated cabs are finite...but not only are there enough to go around for demand, demand has waned due to MAME cabs, emulators, etc. At the end of the day you can play Pac-Man on your computer or console or phone. Nothing replaces the REAL...

KLOV *CLEARLY* isn't the place for NIB pin buyers. ;) That's OK, I still love finding a cheap game to restore....although it's damn near impossible these days. Fighting with flippers for the cheapies is tough and exhausting!

No, they've grown the market by catering to different needs of different customers. Pro - Operators. They want a cheaper game so they can make return on investment. These games also have less mechanical features, so they (theoretically) have less parts to break & repair Premium - Operators or...

Stern has listened to the overwhelming cries of love for Dirty Donny! Dirty Donny Premium Edition has been announced! This will make the "Shitty Photo" edition the TRUE LE cuz no one will want it lol

It's everything most people want in a pinball -Hand drawn art -All original toys -Great Monster-Bash type layout -Lyman Sheats programming -Tube lighting doesn't have any bearing on gameplay/fun -Even though pinball SHOULD move to color displays, I like DMD's. They're "pinball specific" and at...
