It is the "one" person. He has bought a few video gameboards off ebay from me

An video arcade aficionado that has started to import pinballs from the usual suspects overseas. Claims to be able to provide "High End Restorations" that will "clean up the industry".

Follow his Vlogs on Youtube. An interesting character with huge plans. Interesting pictures of the CFTBL on the Roland printer

 did you notice the container in the "hey look at me" video sure looks a single 20 footer .. who imports multiple 20 footers ?

Did they shoot that YouTube video of the container with a potato? You can barely see a thing.

They say in one post "3 more containers this week". There must be a hell of a lot of pinballs coming into Oz every year now with the amount of people that seem to be bringing them in now. Is there really that much demand here? I wonder where they all go, if its mainly to existing enthusiasts or if many go to brand new people getting into the hobby?

I think it's good in that the more here the better and perhaps it will eventually drive prices down if there's a glut. But I wonder how sustainable the current import rates are, particularly as brand new machines will obviously continue to come as well.
