[swinks]

Here is a little bit of entertainment for a Easter Sunday

&feature=youtu.be

Pickers go to texas and visit 2 guys with warehouses of coin op gear - from 4minutes in to 16minutes
- Jukeboxes, Arcade games and specifically 3 pinballs and a ice hockey game they purchased

- Williams EM Magic City
- Stanley Cup Hockey Machine
- Stern Ali
- Bally Charlie Angels

a few others there like a Harlem GT, and a Playboy.

Cool link thanks for sharing 

I cant believe they didnt even LOOK at Playboy, shows how much they know about pins 
And their "expert" dated Stern Ali as being from '77

I should add the guys head to the The Texas Pinball Festival at the 17min 30sec mark to get the hockey game appraised so worth watching until the 20 minute mark.

These guys are going to screw the lot of us collectors.  Every second person who comes Into my work mention these shows to me...   I don't watch tv so wouldn't know but what I hear sounds like some wanker screwing people out of the stuff to make a profit.  Love to see all this cool stuff tucked away but would much rather see it restored than moved on for a quick dollar.

Stupid show. They have their backs to a Playboy and they pass by a Paragon (sans backglass) a couple of times.

I like the comment "looks like all the boards are there" on the Charlie's Angels ! How do you know if you don't open the head ?

I don't mind this show, I like to see what they find and especially what they say they'll sell it for. Though I can't imagine people actually paying for some of the crap they pick up some times (most times).  The tall guy also does my head in if I watch for to long.     Thanks though for posting the link.
