Hello all from Downunder. Just found this site and thought it looks like a good place to join.
Admission is one "schooner" of VB or XXXX for each member ! (...that's a pint of beer for you poor folks who've never been DownUnder ) Just one question though... Does the ball drain at the Top of the Playfield when you're in the Southern Hemisphere ? (you know, being upside down and all... )  Welcome aboard... Steph |

How hot is the collectors market in Australia? From the amount of information posted from there and the prices, it would appear to be quite popular. |

When I was in Melbourne there were two shops (at least) that dealt with game rooms (including pinball). When I was talking with the manager of sales at Bumper Amusements he mentioned that a fair number of aussie homes (esp new builds) have game rooms in the design. This helps somewhat in the sale/resale of pinball but it is more oriented to fooseball, billards and such. |

Thanks for the welcome guys. Tha Aussie market is thriving at the momemt, we pay more for our pins with A-list titles generaly going between $4.5 to $6K and B-list around $2.5k. We do have lots of collecters over here and in my state we monthly have meets at each others houses with a group 15 to 20 pinheads where we get to play each others pins and talk some crap. |

Welcome to the group mate. I fell in love with pinball on a backpacking trip through your country. IJ had just come out and tournaments, etc were all the rage. Was a great time and a great country! PS - I won the high score on the Gold Coast but the machine had messed up and just kept spitting balls out. They would not give me the trophy  |
