quotes from the ebay advert. >>Q: Hello. I am having a mass-debate with my excess skinned partner of 37 years whether or not to buy a Bally Lost World pinball machine or a Bally Popeye Saves the Earth pinball machine. Can you please advise me on which is the better title to bid for? He always tightens the grip on me whenever I get excited about something. Doesn't want me spending all our money. He is a cheese maker by trade. Provolone in fact. Please, I need your guidance. Ta 05-Mar-13
A: I think you should go for the Popeye. It is designed by Python Anghelo. I think you would like anything to do with a Python.
Q: Hi mister man, my daddy said that I would buy this if I have saved enough money. I have a silver one with 10 on it, and a shiney gold one with 1 on it. Do I have enough money? Thankyou mister pinball man Love from Sally (aged 5 and 1/2) 05-Mar-13
A: Hello little one. It is not enough money. If daddy is a big drinker, wait until he is asleep. I hear they are getting about $20000 a kidney in China. That should be enough.
Q: I recently purchased a Cactus Canyon pin and was wondering if your playfield would be a suitable replacement as my playfield has a blown globe. Also what sort of lube do you suggest I use? 04-Mar-13
A: I do not think this playfield would be a replacement. It is slightly worn near one of the bumpers. Blown globes are a serious issue, replacing them should only be attempted by qualified repairers. I would estimate it would cost about $500 to replace the globe, being $10 for the globe and $490 for the 8 hours labour. If you drop it off by 9 a.m., any repairer should have it ready by lunchtime. It will still cost the $500. Type of lube depends on what you are lubing. Personal choice really. I prefer something with a strawberry aroma.
Q: I would like to buy this playfield as a prototype for my new Hobbit machine. But you will need to pay me deposit first and then regular installments based on a picture of my cabinet. Regards Jersey . P.S. I will pay you double Gary Stern's offer. 04-Mar-13
A: I can pay you $1000 now, with further deposits of $1000 every 6 months for the next 3 years. However, I have concerns, will you keep pushing back the completion date until someone releases another H movie so they coincide? No need for a picture of the cabinet, I will be happy with progress pictures of the leg levellers
Q: I been warned about backyarders and backstreet guys, I can clearly see you arn't one of them as your machine looks almost fully shopped out by someone who has been in the industry for many years. I would like to buy your game now if you would throw in some raspberry cordial to sweeten the deal. 04-Mar-13
A: I have had many years experience shopping machines to these high levels that customers demand. Be careful of those backstreet boys, they rip parts off other machines all the time to fix something else, they also sing poorly. Taking parts from other machines simply should not happen with Australian delivered machines, unless you think you can get away with it and your customers will not notice.
Q: all the best with your sale Brad. Regards Gary Stern. 04-Mar-13
A: Thankyou Gary. I was most impressed with your Game Development Department last time I was over there. But you really need to feed your monkeys more than bananas and supply them with more that comic books for creative ideas for pinball titles (Batman, Spiderman, Avengers etc). Your best title to date has been AC/DC. It takes Aussies to come up with something special I suppose. However, at least you are making machines and not getting your ideas from TCM or HBO. PS. Please put some glass up between the tourists and the monkeys. They have a habit of throwing their "creative ideas" at the tourists.
Q: was this cabinet on a float at the Mardi Gra last weekend as I recognised the glory hole and was wondering if you were on the other side of cabinet? Can you send pictures (of yourself not the machine). 04-Mar-13
A: Yes Uliqa, it was in the parade. It was borrowed by Mr Damowanski, the train conductor. When he returned it, he had a bad rash around his face and complained about splinters. He is now growing a beard. Did you not receive my photos last week of you, me and my goat? I was sure I sent them.
Q: if I put my old 68" tv on top, would there be anything else I need to convert it into a Pin2000 pin? 04-Mar-13
A: You would only need an Atari 2600 which could be conveniently place in the bottom of the cabinet.
Q: another fine example of an Aussie delivered machine over those crappy imports - good to see another Adelaide person who promotes these machine over all that other rubbish out there. This would be the jewel in my shop compared to the other games I sell from Morocco - at would be priced at $10k. 04-Mar-13
A: Hello my old friend, Uliqa M'Diq. I have not heard from you in such a long time. How did your last trip to Morocco go? Did you see Shaif Hirboush while you were there? I must say this machine far surpasses that import rubbish you bring into the country
Q: I will swap my wife for it .. Does it drive well is it manual or auto. If im luckly to win this will it make it home on 1 tank of gas? Thank u 04-Mar-13
A: The machine is auto, it tends to pull to the right a little. I think it will make it on 1 tank. I prefer a racing stripe on my bucket seats if you know what I mean. It will all depend on what model and year your wife is.
Q: Is this table something that the pin monkey would be able to fix? I'm thinking of buying this for my h maccedonian cousin, will you deliver this to his commitment ceremony? You are also invited, do you want a plus one for your goat? 04-Mar-13
A: There is very little to fix, I do not understand your question. I can deliver to your cousin, when is the ceremony? Just remember I need all the advance notice you can give me. I will need it make sure my wife's camel caravan has plenty of time. If she pushes the camels too hard she will end up with a sore camel toe. She gets very grumpy with a sore camel toe. I will come along, I'm all for AC/DC. What my goat does not know will not hurt her.
Q: Do you think it only needs a fuse to have this baby fully working? 03-Mar-13
A: I have found nails work perfectly well.
Q: Hi, I am looking for a sanctuary to put my pet skunk and pet monkey. Not sure what will happen if I put them together and this looks like a last chance buy to get such rare antiquities for my harem...BOOM! This is just one I gotta have. BOOM. 03-Mar-13
A: Skunk and monkey. Hmmm. I doubt you will be able to smell anything over the wet camel hair, but it would certainly look like a badly packed kebab in there.
Q: Do you think this would be a good machine for a first time pinball buyer, I dont now much about fixing bumpernoids and slingbats n stuff. 03-Mar-13
A: An ideal machine my friend. The bumpernoids are secured with gruffnuts or alternatively dingleberries. They do the same job. The slingbats are worn and may need replacing with the newer model rusty trombones.
Q: WOW - Danielle just sent us your coordinates on this prize find - we are on our way from the US to check out this beauty. See you soon from Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz (Amercian Pickers). "I gotta have it". 03-Mar-13
A: You are most welcome my friends! I cherish the though of this machine returning triumphantly to its home county!
Q: Hi, are you willing to swap it for an 8-ball deluxe? 03-Mar-13
A: Sorry, no swapping. I only swap wives.
Q: Hi, If i win the auction, will you personally deliver this to Brisbane ? I don't trust freight companies and i will require this service. 03-Mar-13
A: I will personally transport it by camel caravan. I would estimate it will take about 3 weeks. If the camel toes get sore it may take much longer.
Q: Hi mate, I am 3ft tall. It seems this pinball will be ideal for me as there appears to be no legs. 03-Mar-13
A: Oh, so true! I would suggest it is left turned on underneath the cabinet, and turned on and off at the powerpoint.
Q: would it survive the distance if i tie a strap around it and tow it to NSW also i noticed you didn't have the title rare in your listing as it is very $$$ i don't want to see you do your self out of money i can see this going for a lot 03-Mar-13
A: This machine is delicate, I doubt it would survive having a ratchet strap tied firmly around it. I think I can rest assured it will go for large amounts of money.
Q: Hi mate, Does it come with the manual? 03-Mar-13
A: No manual. They are no longer available. I do have a friend who may have one for a paltry sum of $200.
