Not too many Melbourne guys who buy NOS parts, is there!
Great rumour!! Will be hugely interesting to see if there is any truth in it.
But first I have to copyright my Bathurst 2000 design.

another dud rumor I reckon, but how cool would it be!
This thread posted in Mark's forum.......... doo doo doo doo doo doo doo (TZ music lol)
-
Sounds like cow poo to me !
-
guys this is ALL BS
this was said on friday when a few guys from SA and NSW came to Childs
i wondered how long before it would be said that i brought it
its all total BULLSHIT , i guess we see where rumours come from and how fast they start
i can confirm and will happily swear on a bible I havent and have never even spoken to Stern
would be great though

I am sure Gray Stern would not be happy.
Rumors like this can be damaging for business

Absolutely - Unfortunately, this sort or rumor would most likely come from a competitor, or someone deliberately orchestrating a smear campaign. A similar rumor was doing the rounds last year (from memory) and was documented on several forums. Again, it was found to be untrue.
Gary Stern is a great survivor in the industry, so he would be used to hearing the rubbish thrown at him by industry people. Problem for the persons starting the rumors is that Stern is still making pinball. In fact, a positive rumor is that Stern are planning to rerun "Harley Davidson" .
I'm sure the guys that have been to stern's factory will agree, it is worth the trip to see how a Pinball is manufactured.
-
Um, it has been clearly documented that the rumour was false, and the reason it was started has also been clearly documented.
These things do tend to have a life of their own, though.
-
guys I was asked by a member here
not going to say pinball blog and it was even stated that I had a meeting with Gary
I have since confirmed this isnt true , a simple question was asked has anyone heard of this to a group of members from here and AA
my understanding it was then passed onto others and made it around the world , to a point Damien even got emails asking him it he had brought Stern
its a shame from a simple , have you heard of these 2 aussies that have brought stern , is it true , have you heard anything ? to now its been sold , i brought it and so on,
i guess people are more than welcome to ask questions and pass it on but as it goes from one to another the story seems to have changed. I did ask the question of the 5 people that turned up at my place , no one had any ideas and they all thought it was me .... it does seem to have changed many times since last friday afternoon and many emails all over the world. even James asked me .
Yes I have meet Gary Stern , yes I have spoken to Him , yes I have been to stern , but all this was done because I was at Expo last year
I hope this clears some of this up.
it was a question like have you heard who brought IPB .... well have you ?? yes it was Pinballinc
then it became PSP then so and so got it Then some guy from Europe and so on
well I believe James will announce who brought most of the stock left soon .. dont ask me I cant tell you
