Hi Guys..Its been a while but now that the buying/selling mess I created has finally been dealt with I'm hoping to "re-enter" the Pinball world as nothing but a collector/player. Maybe just a couple of decent machines to start with again. I'm kicking myself for selling my Final Four when I did but at the time I felt I had to. My head just wasn't in the right place in any way whatsoever. I'll always have some great memories about the Pizza/Pinball parties at the warehouse, but I'm sure it would come as no surprise to most that I lost a VERY significant amount of $$ with the business. Now I just sell shoes again and life is much simpler!
I hope everyone is well and that some of you may have a nice machine in your collection you want to part with that I might want!! . I also hope to see many of you soon..JIM
Rebuilding...currently Scared Stiff, Guns N'Roses, Bally Harley Davidson, Fish tales, Slugfest, JVL Conquest standup,and a Wurlitzer Juke.

Jim has a knack for finding good pinball deals and getting them to Canada (and then had knack for getting them out into our collections!). Welcome back Jim, it was always worth the drive to Nepean (and my main stop on Ottawa pinball runs)!

Yes, thankyou, I'm not even sure where I pulled Nepean out of the old grey matter from....considering that I and my father-in-law know the route to Jim's warehouse blindfolded (and he is legally blind).
Got a pretty good deal( I think) at $1300 USD..ventured back to the EVIL Ebay one more time to try and find something near where I was going next week ( Maine). I knew there was a reason why I hadn't touched up the scrapes on my basement stairs walls yet!!

Welcome back Jim (the guy that got me into collecting pins). Still enjoying my TZ, STTNG and SS. Can't believe you sold your final-4 either. Hope the hobby remains a hobby this time.
Pins owned:�� Bally - Twilight Zone (1993) Williams - Star Trek The Next Generation (1993) Bally - Scared Stiff (1996) Stern - Lord of the Rings (2004)
