I don't know about a trick to register, I've never had any problems, but for cheaper places to buy, depends on what you are buying.

http://pinballlife.com has a wide selection of items and nice cheap prices.

http://www.bayareaamusements.com/ has a good selection of parts, some hard to find ones as well higher prices then pinball life but not as high as Marco, better prices on shipping as well.

Marco is a place you buy from because you have to, really the only time I ever buy from them is because they have a part no one else has.

My only problem with canadapinballparts is there selection is limited (I know it's growing) and Jean-Marc can't get your pricing on items that he doesn't have in stock until he places his order, leaves me feeling like im flying blind a bit.

Thankx for the feedbacks . As for Marco ' s , it turned me off realizing that it would ' ve been easier for me to register if i would ' ve been from Cameroon or Zimbabouay than Canada ...

That is the only time I buy from them. They are expensive and you all know about their shipping charges. They do not seem to like to cater to the rest of the world.


It has been scientifically proven that light is faster than sound. That is why some people seem brilliant........until they open their mouth!

I also had the same problem on two seperate occassions...

basically I called them on the phone, and they took my order right over the phone.

It's a glitch in their system.

Wow... I think I would miss it too, with all those red arrows on the website.  Very distracting. Marco needs a new web designer I think.  

A nice blink tag might work better??
