I am interested to hear peoples thoughts on the demand vs import quantities for Pinball machines of various ages. From where I sit I see container loads of Pinballs being bought into the country by Companies such as Child Amusements, Silverball, Mr Pinball, The Pinball Shed, Bumper Action etc.
However, the majority of these containers seem to be 1990s era pins. There seems to be little coming in from the 'Golden Era' 60s, 70s and 80s!
Now I would have thought that the demographic typical pinball player is in his 30s to 50s and that there would be a lot of demand for these older pins? Simple economics tells me Supply Vs Demand that there would be less older pins currently available?
Anyway please post your thoughts here as I am interested to read your opinions. Maybe if there is enough intrest in this thread the Commercial Guys will give it some further thought? Seems that on Ebay US these old pins go for a steal, so come on guys pick some up and bring em to Aus for fanatics like me.

We have over 60 project pins that we own and are in storage overseas. Greg makes a very good point about what people want versus what people want to pay. Titles include 2 x Devils Dare, 4 centaurs, 2 pink panthers, viking, 8 ball deluxe,black hole,medusa,xenon, and many more. We are still debating if it is worth bringing these machines in as a whole or in parts. When you add up the time, effort,cost of pin and cost to ship here, is really worth the hassle.
We have access to a stash of working classic pins, ballys, williams, gottliebs that are fully working and we are deciding if this should be the way to go.
Most people want project pins, in working condition,with no missing parts and dont wont to pay more than a couple hundred dollars.
