After the bad sellers.. we get the good!
« on: April 08, 2015, 08:21:00 PM »
Just to balance it all up... figured id post on a recent purchase seeing as its always the bad that gets mentioned and its easy to forget the good ( hey.. no one writes a letter to say thanks.. only complaints!)

Anyway, I bought 5 schematics from Mike Pacak in USA. Price was $20ea.. titles I got were WMS ROCKET ( had an original but it caught fire in an accident with some contact cleaner spray..LOL).. GTB ROCKET SHIP...GTB SOUTHERN BELLE, GTB MYSTIC MARVEL, GTB WORLD CHAMP. Price was $100... no postage or handling fee.
Schematics arrived today after just over a weeks wait.. actual postage was $6.97 and 3 of the 5 schematics are originals in great condition.

Nothing but a thumbs up from me!!!!  ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^

Mike P is a great guy. Not a shred of overinflated ego or unwarranted self importance.

Have dealt with him many times.

Great to hear.

Good stuff it's nice to hear a posative story for a change on this forum instead of all the negative juvenile shit canning that seems to be dominating this forum of late.
In fact it's inspired me to start a new thread on my posative pinbal experiences from this forum which is the reason I was initially drawn to this forum.
Stay tuned and please join in.

Good one retropin - you are spot on - balancing back towards positive can only be a good thing. Love hearing the stories of businesses/ people that are great to deal with.

Ps. Spacejam - yes, sorry I was one part of that - I stand by it but don't want to be painted as biased towards negative because I'm not. I'd prefer to laugh than whinge any day so look fwd to yr thread mate.

I enjoy Porsche, Gibson LPs, Bally-Williams & learning about pinball maintenance & restoration.

Is all good.. in fact id say that the outcomes that were achieved before were a direct result of the public airing they got... so long as it all worked out, its fine.
But... if we are willing to post the bad... then lets share the good also..

It's great when a manual or schematic arrives and its original.  And great to hear positives for a change
