Hi Oscar,

Well done on the container!  Great list.  From the brief look I had you have some great pins in fantastic condition.

Just give us a yell if I can be of any assistance.

Well done Oscar, lots of nice titles in that lot. As others have asked - what sort of condition are the games?

From what I have seen so far above average for container pins. About 10 have been put on legs, all have original manuals/schematics so far, the flintstones even had the factory goodie bag. All that were ther were very impressed, cant wait to see the others.

For those who dont know Oscar, he is a great friend of mine and other forum members. He loves his pins and is living his dream by importing a container. I have offered my full support and will be assisting him with repairs etc. Oscar is one of the  most honest and genuine bloke's you will ever meet.   WELL DONE OSCAR ^^^

I am planning on moving them on. Since more than half are in storage I may take some pictures for anyone interested.

I am in Caroline Springs, Melbourne

I have no pricing on them yet, They will be priced according to condition as Dave has mentioned I only have 10 on legs I havent seen the other 40 yet.

I din't go over to inspect the pinballs because of the sellers commitments and I couldnt organise a time with him. Sorry I can't give there name but I can assure you this was a closing down sale.


David Thank you once again for your kind words and really looking forward to learning more about the repair side of the pinballs.
