Any additional @$%^ 15% tax at the Canada border, or is it already included in the above price ? Importing pins from the US is not cheap...
Glad you finally found your dream machine
Cheers, - Sylvain
Thanks Sylvain!
I bought it in Canada...and yes, the DMD works 100%
For those who don't know: Flipper Football's DMD is unique and very very very expensive to replace...

I passed by Alouette again today but they were too busy for me to look at anything. Darn, a bit of a waste of time (and gas!)....
Since, I lost my job 2 months ago and still searching for something full-time (computer graphics), I am looking for some part-time work and I might end up there next week to see if I can do anything for them to help sell pinball machines (and hopefully convince them to lower prices and move out machines faster).
I will let you know what happens (perhaps posting for them under Alouette account by including some conditions/prices, etc.) .
Thanks.

Too busy to meet with a potential customer??? Wow, that says alot about their business practices. I am truely surprised. I bought quite a few pins from them back in the day. While their prices have increased, quality has decreased and I haven't bought in awhile, I am surprised they would treat a potential customer so poorly. If you made the effort to get there, the least they can do is show you the pins.
I hope you are able to work a deal with them and help them move some pins

Well this is the most stupid thing i have ever seen. I have left message several times with the poor lady that ansers the phone. This is what I think of Allouette they can kiss my a**. I dont want to deal with a company that does not anser to customers. If they want to post allot of pins and say hey good deal put no price thats fine. I just wont look at them and they should not post call us for more info when you can never get them. Sorry a bit pissed off with this stupid practice that all. I say if there is no price for what your selling dont bother posting it. They Wasted allot of people time just to jerk them arround well they can kiss my very white and harry a**.
(verymad)
Wow I actually feel better God love to vent
Life is like Pinball!! You never know where you will bounce or where your going but sometimes you have that one amazing shot But on the other hand you have those darn gutter ball where you just get frustrated.
Maybe they're soooo busy because they don't want to talk to us MAACA members due to our trash talk and that they don't want the prices published when they know MAACA members will publish the prices here so we can do more trash talk???
Actually it's my brother's impression and I honestly say that it makes sense!
Then again, what's the point of putting an ad if you don't want 'us' (maaca members) to be customers OR know that nobody in MAACA will buy anything because they are too expensive....hmmm....
Maybe they should understand that ANY seller (unless he has incredible prices) gets trashed on this forum...It's part of the culture!
On the positive note, Alouette is way better than say Mira or Techno-Jeux!
Bon weekend!
