Great review - Thanks for posting, Greg.


"Moving to the right of stage, there were a number of stalls, including “Flipper Rescue” pinball restoration, and the AussiePinball.com.au forum. One stall – containing just one pinball, would be seen by many enthusiasts as one of the highlights of the show."

Very pleased that the CI team have had nothing but the highest compliments !

Hi guys, thanks for the kind words!

...I thought I'd better jump in and say hi!

Hey all,

Even more positive news from Expo 2009 today ( not strictly PINBALL related - but .....)
I was talking with Mike from Arcade Plus today - for those of you that attended , you may recall he had his game machines set up in the corner and all his staff in black/purple shirts /caps.

He tells me he sold 2 machines at the Expo, has also sold another 2 this week to Expo attendees AND has 2 or 3 more on the go - also directly from a result of showing his product at the Expo.

Goes to show that with the right product in the right place you WILL sell your gear.

He also sold one really cheap by auction - was that one of the two he was talking about? I guess he couldn't be bothered taking it home.

The one machine he had set up in the corner had a "SOLD" label on it by about 2pm on the Saturday .
