Hello all!

Jeff Evans here from the Mana Lounge. We are a Games and Hobbies and have been in business for over 5 years now and have recently expanded into Pinball, selling both machines and accessories! I've been in the hobby for well over 2 decades so I'm extremely excited to be doing this.

We have two locations:
- 256 Dundas St. London, ON (Downtown London)
- 89 Frank St, Strathroy, ON

If you want to check out our inventory please visit: http://www.manalounge.ca/pinball

We are currently offering free curbside delivery within the London area as well!

If you have any questions or just want to talk shop, contact me directly @ jeff (at) manalounge.ca or DM here

Cheers :)

Pretty damn close to Delhi.
Closest retailer, so far.

Do you offer on location play for pinball?
Just Stern? Or will other brands on the horizon?
(I have a buddy in St Thomas that wants to play Legends of Valhalla first)

We do! We currently have a Deadpool Premium in our Strathroy store and are in the process of adding more there and to our downtown London location. Space is tight but we're going to do what we can :)

Currently we are only offering Stern but will be looking at other manufacturers down the road. If there's a specific machine you can always reach out and I'll see what I can do!

I have to say I have been dealing with Manalounge for a purchase and he has been awesome to deal with.

Answers texts/calls/emails very quickly. He was able to accommodate a few requests I added on the order.

Been refreshing to deal with and looking forward in doing other purchases through Manalouge.

Now, can't wait for the new toy to make it home safe.

I also had an excellent experience with Manalounge. Jeff was extremely easy to work with, fast communication (early morning to evening), and delivered before I was expecting. Machine came in perfect condition.

You can really tell he CARES about you as a customer. I’m sure I will be contacting Jeff again soon but for now I’ll be enjoying my GZ 70th!!! :)

I have also had amazing experiences dealing with Jeff. I purchased a Godzilla pro for the London Pinball Parlour at Forked River Brewing in London and he delivered quicker than I expected. He has also been kind enough to loan us a John Wick pro and Foo Fighters pro for the Parlour. Just an all-around great dude to deal with.

And with that said, come play the games at Forked River Brewing in London! We run Matchplay tournaments on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 8pm. The next one is this Tuesday!

If In was still heavy into Magic or 40K, I would be in serious trouble.
I am already rounding up my mod purchases to the next ten with MTG Fallout foils....

How do you like the TCM? Thanks.
It's actually very fun (in a horror way!). Lots of combos and flow. The light show and shaker programing with the different modes is very unique and fun.

Lots of mode variety with character select and different perks for each. Still not 1.0 code, but plenty in there to satisfy and make each game different.

The hook multiball is a tougher one to get, but verybsatisfying when you do. I got it a handful of times.

I have not had any qc issues but have a bit less than 100 games played.

Some code bugs, but Spooky is responsive and will gather all the logs when you work with them.

Fun pin, the theme is what is putting people off which is understandable, very polarizing especially since you play as the family.

Well I have to bump this thread again.

Took delivery yesterday of an Xmen Pro hand delivered from Jeff and Nick (Mana). They started their day at 4am and we're at my place at 10h30pm with 6 deliveries in between.

They backed up in the driveway came out with a smile, even though they were probably super tired. Pin got offloaded, unboxed and they even helped me move it down my stairs cause I didn't want he pin to stay in the garage.

Again, if you want to deal with a dedicated (addict like the rest of us), no nonsense, straight shooter and overall great guy, Mana is your spot.

Did not have time to set it up but will get to it this weekend.

Thank you again Jeff and Nick!

Seb, you didn't even mention the trailer tire blow out in Hamilton, running to princess auto, grabbing a jack, torque wrench, 2 new spares, deep socket set and a breaker bar. We nascar'd that bad boy and went on with the trip! LOL

Was an epic day, thank you for being so flexible and greeting us at bedtime. We had one more after still and wrapped up around 12:15.

We definitely set a new personal best for deliveries and smiles in a single day.

Love this stuff!!

Thanks guys!!!
