What a great line-up, only advice I could probably offer is to try your best to maintain the pins. Being an operator is hard work, never mind trying to run another business entirely in addition to operating 23 pins! I hope to make it out and spend some money in the future! All the best!
Wow, can't imagine going into Player1 or being at a tournament and not seeing Jerry there... wish I could make it, have previous plans, I wish him an amazing retirement!
If you go the EM route be prepared to roll up your sleeves and fix it, even it is working 100% when you buy it, simply moving it home and setting it up could introduce new problems.
Modern games with an old vibe would include the series of games Stern released with the same playfield, just...
Well envisioning common sense is your first mistake! This is the internet! :) I'd ask such a silly question cause I legit don't subscribe to the value a star rating would bring this site. Maybe it's my cynical nature. If I can't touch it myself, I'm not buying it regardless of how many stars...
The only "Black List" of people to not buy from that I know of is on mrpinball.com

This is very different than a Star rating imo. Other than that it is the due diligence route if you're buying sight unseen, ask for references, ask a friend to go...
Based on what you've described I just see a world where it will devolve into a petty retaliatory system, you give a guy a low rating he gives one back and then arguments ensue and we are no further ahead. Now we are left with moderators having to clean up after it? I don't think they've signed...
If I were to invest $1,000USD into a topper it would be the Stern one so I could play the new content, otherwise I'd role my own topper and save the cash... or go without one altogether :)
I saw that Lost World yesterday and I think it is in really great shape... if you have a LW with a totally roached playfield this would be a cheap way to upgrade for sure!
Just picked up a sweet Centaur playfield from @eh97ac! This is going to make one amazing guitar!!! If anyone is interested in getting a Centaur pinball guitar made by an awesome Luthier in Hamilton hit him up on his website http://citharaguitars.com/, this one hasn't even been posted there yet.
As a general statement 90's Bally/William games are more desirable and have better resale value than 90's Data East/Sega. Sure there are some outliers like GNR goes for top dollar but I'll stand behind that as a general statement.
I've spent plenty of time on both and would take JM if they were...
Latest #pinballguitar about ready to leave the shop... I had previously mentioned the EK Tele that was in the works for the fellow who originally had gotten the EK Bass... two guitars out of one playfield is a thing...
Why is it no one asks how many plays an older game has on it? DMD or pre-DMD? Because the number of plays don’t matter it’s the condition that matters. That said, if number of plays gives you a false sense of security and makes you happy then ask away… if you offer less for someone’s game based...
