The signs were all there unfortunately. I feel bad for people that lost money.

The Fathom remake is a beautiful machine. I hope I get to see and play one some day.

Sobering reality is....who's next to go down? Way too many pins sitting unsold now; nevermind brand new ones being pumped out like crazy.

Wow.

Honestly, things are simply returning to normal. 2019, I emailed Player 1 and they had Monster Bash LE sitting there. It had been available for over a year when I bought it. They had every Stern machine in stock as well at the time going back a couple years. The last few years has just been abnormal.

NIB machines should never have sold for more than people bought them for. It's been a pretty ridiculous time.

Player 1 is offering $2100 discount on a brand new Mando PRO. $3200 off a premium. NIB. More discounts on other pins. This is normal? How come they are still sitting?

Running a pinball company from Australia likely added so many extra costs. Supply chain madness during COVID didn't help.

One thing becomes apparent, it's damn hard to run a successful manufacturing company!

Stern offered cash off some discontinued a few months ago. Discounts I saw were also mostly floor models so not NIB.

Yeah, $200-400 off at the Wasaga show. They were all floor models. I'd be very surprised if they're suddenly offering $3200 off a premium. But I emailed asking just in case, I might be interested at that price LOL

 

[Pins4ever]

If you're nice to Sammy at P1; he'll give you NIB at that price.

Yeah... just got their price list. That's not a NIB. That's a demo model. A decent price, but I certainly wouldn't buy it without a thorough inspection.

Try giving him a phone call instead of not believing. Works wonders.

For clarify after checking with P1AG they do have a limited supply of DEMO Pinball Models available in their Toronto Showroom.
Unfortunately they are not NIB, but P1AG will allow you to come in and inspect the machine
Go check out the availability, they could have the title you did not know you wanted.

 

[dos.reboot]

Yeah, demo pins.

 

[hey you with the face]

Thought about buying a used Haggis Fathom but now it's not worth the risk.. A irreparable issue would be a disaster.

Those demo pins were at the Ontario show......they played fine and still looked like new.

I'd rather spend an extra $300 at Player one and get a brand new game.

 

[pinballjah]

Does anyone have a list of the games? Thanks.

I heard differently

P1 seems so antiquated as a distro with their lack of online shopping, inventory and specials.
