« on: February 01, 2010, 04:10:10 PM »
For those that dont visit the other forums I thought I would post this up,last week I called around to give Joe a hand unloading his 20' container of 33 NIB Sterns.......what a mission not the sort of job to do on a 36 degree day.
Our time for the Pinball container challenge was 2 blokes 1 forklift 2hrs 45 mins

Great effort boys . . .
You could both afford to lose a few kilos - that's a brilliant way to do it.
Terrific to see Perth isn't lagging behind in the Stern Stakes.
I'll be up at Joe's tonight to have a gander and of course put my handle on a few HSTD's.
Nice pics Ratso!

Joe Tripoli

Looks like they are distributors for AMD.

I am pretty sure this is the same Joe who attended the Sydney Expo last year and purchased an AP shirt. I spent a bit of time chatting to him and one of his techs; they helped out with on the floor repairs for the Expo as well.

its nice to see someone over the farside of Australia has got some NIB Sterns, BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT

BUT SINCE I WOULD ONLY EVER BUY A BRAND NEW STERN FROM MARK C, its of no benefit to me.

IN MY BOOK, MARK IS THE MAN. PUT SIMPLY, THERE IS SIMPLY ONLY ONE PLACE TO BUY ANYTHING PINBALL, AND
ITS FROM CHILD AMUSEMENTS OR PINBALLSPAREPARTS.

Its only my opinion, but my money is with Mark.  ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^
