What the heck are those stickers about?
From a brief Google it appears to be about someone called Karl Oyston who has something to do with Blackpool FC.

So there's me thinking they couldn't sink any lower!
@lukewells did you key it?
wasn't that the late Bob Thompson's company?
The name was Bob's but after his death these Muppets took over what was once a great name in the Pinball world and made it the worst.
Yup I had a game with a sticker in "Serviced by Pinball Paradise" and feared the worst until @I TiltAlot explained to me about Bob and likely it was him and immediately breathed a sigh of relief haha.
I've had many machines from him .. he had the magic touch when it came to getting a machine to play well ..
Yes Bob Thompson machines were one of the best out there, in there day that is.
My first pin, a Dr Who, had a Pinball Paradise sticker in it - it had gone brown through age - it was a a really great example of a pin and took me a while to understand that it wasn't from these charlatans. I suspect (and hope) they just haven't changed the livery and are rolling around in the same van - maybe one of the things that didn't get destroyed in the 'fire', or the subsequent dissolving of that company. Like's been said, the first two results on google tell the only story anyone needs to hear, and the fact that the website is still dead, that they haven't changed the name from this toxic-brand, and have the same email address, suggests that is the case. @lukewells was this near your house, are they your new next door neighbours now or you happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time?
or you happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time?
Could someone enlighten me about them please. Haven't a clue.
My tz has one of their old stickers in
Google 'pinball paradise', then read the first two results from pinside and here
Bought a Bally Hardbody from Bob.
Was amazed at the size of the unit and the machines that were in there. Then he told me he had another one.... said I'd be back but alas...

He had 2 big units .. not all pinball, a few other arcade games, but loads of pinballs. His van was much bigger than that with a tail lift, he would go to Holland once a month or so and fill it up!
