I came here around 8 months ago looking for my first pinball
I looked around allot and about 5 months ago bought my self an old Mata Hari pinball from a gumtree add.
After reading thread after thread after thread to see what pinball I liked and what caught my eye i made the decision to buy
Originally I was chasing a later 1980's pinball but settled on an older classic but dont expect to get anything good cheap
If you have a small budget then you can expect to be working on it your self to make it good, you wont be getting a perfect pinball for nothing
you will need a few grand up your sleeve if you want a good clean game.
The advice I was first given on this forum was dont rush into it.
