Where is the best place to buy parts for my Bally's Elektra? I am going to need to buy a repair kit for the MPU, some legs, other small stuff, and who knows what else. You never know just buy looking at websites who to trust and takes care of their customers.

Thanks
 
I haven't found a one-stop-shop for pinball parts yet.

Great Plains Electronics for the Electrical stull
Pinball Life for the common stuff
Pinball Resource for the Gottlieb Stuff
Marco and Bay Area Amusements for most of the rest of the stuff
and for the stuff that is hard to find, Ebay, RGP, KLOV, Mr Pinball Classifieds...

I usually end up making four or five orders to get all of the stuff that I need for a single machine rebuild.

Yep what he said. I would add that Pinball Resource also carries parts for pins other than Gottlieb, in case the other don't have what you're looking for.

All of them are good people and helpful.

Ed @ GPS is fantastic for SS parts.
Pinball life has good pricing & fast shipping.
Pinball resource has a huge inventory, but has a NY attitude.

Add John's Jukes out of Canada to the list... super nice guy.
 
The Pinball Resource is the only vendor to sell replacement Williams coils with the proper coil wrappers on them. Their ordering system is ancient but they are easy to deal with. I have stuck to email ordering and never had a single issue.

My favorite vendors in order:

1. Pinball Life
2. Bay Area Amusements
3. Pinbits
4. Mad Amusements / The Pinball Resource (TIE)
5. Mantis Amusements
6. Marco Specialties
