Hey gang,
Im looking for a few things:
1) Tales From The Crypt....I was talking to a buddy of mine at the last UFC fight...shocked when GSP lost....anyways he remembers TFTC as the best machine ever, so I told him to buy one. He only needs it in working condition
2) My Dad and my wifes dad are now looking for pins. They are both around 60 years old so Im thinking that EM's are their cups of tea...anybody got some they can deliver and set up in Ottawa?
3) I remember this shooting game from the local mall and Im trying to find it. It was a 5cent game where you shot little BB's from a little silver gun at a building with targets. Does anyone have one of those?
Thanks

Better ask them first... because my father in law is 60 years old and he plays my WPC's all the time ! I think he played more than me actually... at least he did break them more often He would find EMs REALLY boring..

I love that b-b game, too.   Find me one too - because I recall they were quite small - so a nice addition to a game room. I remember being in a camp and walking to a pizzeria and playing that game all the time... ...kinda lame..., but quite fun too...

I have one of those little shooter games, Mine is a US Marshall version. It was purchased from "Cooke's" father-in-law. Very cool little game, My Wife is easily the champ on this game! They really aren't that expensive and parts are readily available from http://www.crowriver.com  Not for sale, but they are out there. US Marshall and New Frontier are two versions.

Yeah...that was it....I saw one on ebay a while ago, but i was in my cheap mode and thought it was too expensive. Damn!
As for my folks.....they were playing my pinbot and they kept talking about the good old days and the machines from the 50's......so my guess is that an EM would be what they are looking for.
What does a TFTC in working order go for nowadays? It just needs to work, dont care what it looks like.

I think the last one in Ottawa went for 2000$ or more but it was SUPER nice..  I think the book value is around 1700-1800$ US.

Hummmmmmm if the offer is good i may let it go at $1725.99

Contact Sylvain Gregoire (member Sylvain). He is the KING in Ottawa for older pins. He often has some for sale at great prices, and they are usually top-notch. He knows his stuff and fixes them with his eyes closed!!!  

Send him a PM.

Thanks Ian for the reference !

I just replied to Hippochrome's PM.

Regards,
