Hi from Hastings!

[Slamtilt]

Hi! My name is Dom and I'm new around here! I have been into pinball for a long time, in fact my first job was repairing arcade machines. Earlier this year went on a road trip accross the US and came across an arcade full of Pinball machines and since then I have been wanting to get back into pinball ownership. I have been looking on ebay, but they are either overpriced or worn out/been left in a shed for 20 years. Maybe i'm tight or old(!), it doesn't help that I was once given 6 em pinball machines for free (they were going to the tip and the operator was going to only keep the glass, coin mechs and balls). I used to have a Pinbot, I really regret selling it!

Anyway, here are a couple of pictures of the arcade I found in Illinois:

Mystery Castle by Alvin G, funnily enough I once met Alvin Gottlieb when he was in the Uk trying to sell a double headed soccer game, he was a really nice guy.
