No Longer Available Dave Rolfe's Pinball Collection.

[streaky2007]

Hi All,
Firstly I want to say I'm sorry that the world has lost a pinball enthusiast and I hope the family are being supported well at this time.
Secondly, I miss our pinball machne and my wife had agreed we can stretch to the prices of some of these lower priced tables.
I'd like to be considered for Lost World (or possibly Vector).
Please let me know when the final sale prices are being resolved.
Thanks
Steve

@PinballDaze Sent you a PM about an unrelated matter to Dave Rolfe's machines, but kinda related. Did you get it?

 

[PinballDaze]

This thread will be updated with photos soon plus all relevant info. There will be plenty of time to make offers etc.

 

[stevebm1]

in your original post you said there were spare playfields/legs are the spares going to be for sale separately?

There's a load of legs, hopefully 60, so each pin with have a set. Any specific spares for each pin will be included with that pin.
Will clarify this when I return to take photos.

Hi everyone

I thought I would share the work Dave and I did on a machine to customize it for a company, and the homage paid to him in the usual area! Dave helped me do the artwork design, overlays, side graphics, backbox graphics and then we spent 2 days putting it together. He was absolutely brilliant and so was his family who put me up for a night as it went on a little more than we expected.

I'll be soon converting this machine back to its former glory as a Strikes n Spares as it's now finished it's 8 year tour of duty around Europe and the Middle East. That includes an impressive passport of countries this machine has been. France, Germany, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Turkey, UAE and South Africa!!

(If anyone has stencils for Strikes n Spares please let me know!!!)

Cheers

JB

Are there any other Wales events coming up? I haven't seen any advertised in ages and would love to go.

Nothing planned by me.

The original Strikes n Spares is available and is on the list. Dave had two.

 

[bluejonny]

In actual fact he did have two - but one was converted to this one!

 

[PinballDaze]

Latest.
I have been back and arranged the pins to get photos. Space was limited and photos are not the best. As it was belting down with rain, pins had to stay inside. All pins had their playfield glass on too, some dust included. More details to follow (plus the promised photos)

Can you say where these pins are located please?

 

[Sven Normansson]

Id imagine south wales abergavenny area

 

[bluejonny]

Place outside of abgavenny, Wales.

Looking forward to the photos

When these sell, it will provide some good data points on game pricing.

I am not a buyer of this table, but will be particularly interested in the price of that Kiss. I only tend to see ones advertised at stupid prices ie 5k, that never sell.

 

[PinballDaze]

Just to note that if any pin doesn't get to a "expected" price, it may well be auctioned off on eBay. Don't shoot the messenger here, just going by Elaines guidelines. She was very pleased to know that her late husbands games would be going to collectors and the like etc.

Is this still happening?

Love that @Arv - what's it from?

Withnail and I.

I recently made a pilgrimage to Uncle Montys cottage in the Lakes.

We celebrated with some of the finest wines known to humanity

Right. Stop [emoji113] whatever it is you are doing. And immediately proceed to the Withnail And I viewing room.

God I love that film. Probably the most quotable film ever. Scrubbers!

'Danny's here. Headhunter to his friends. Headhunter to everyone. He doesn't have any friends. The only people he converses with are his clients, and occasionally the police. The purveyor of rare herbs and proscribed chemicals is back. Will we never be set free?'
