you can bid on a BBB if you want: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200282659588

I was never attracted by this game.

Quoted from ALJO

I know what kind of guy you are Adam... it's OK, I like you anyway, I have no hard feelings against anyone (sometimes it's hard not to though) as opposed to some MAACA members who ,"I know", don't like me much.

Your a good guy too Claude, I didn't mean to make it sound like a personal attack if that is the way it came off, if anything we are all just trying to look out for your best interests, don't want to see you get scrwed.

I really hope it works out, would be sweet to see the machine made, but it just doesn't look like it going to happen.

Let me ask this, a straight forward question.  Have you seen anything that would suggest that these machines are being built?  Asembly photos, empty cabinets, wiring looms, anything?  

what happens when the rights are due?how does a guy bid on them?

you call these guys up: http://www.wms.com/contact.php
actually, if you look under International, there's an office in calgary! go see them !

Should I be hoping that Gary buys it, and starts producing MMs and AFMs? Probably cheaper than designing new games.

Quoted from ALJO

seriously, with an Australian order... I did read the small prints, and that was the first thing I watched....500$ U.S. for delivery to a port, which in my case is "Le Port De Quebec".

That's odd, my understanding was that it was US$500 for delivery "within Australia".  I could be wrong.

This is a moot point, isn't it?  

made 3 different calls and it all ended with no one knowing how to buy the rights?does anyone know where does a guy go from here.

Call Roger Sharpe. He'll know.

That sounds about on par with what the NuCore guys were saying at Expo.. the Williams hounds have no clue nor care of their pinball licenses.  Any hassle you'll have on their licenses comes from Wayne alone, as Williams really doesn't give a flying $%&#  

(as a matter of fact, the original design team of P2K really want the NuCore thing to happen)

The only one who'll give a flying f*ck is a third party (like their property rights agent law firm) that can make a buck on the sale / re-license of rights.

I guess if you want to find out how to get the license, you'll need to hire an IP lawyer/investigator. IP law sucks, and is a mess, especially in this case.
