Good luck with the hunt.
Play South Park before buying one as its not everyones cup of tea.

Yeah, South Park is a marmite machine. I have it and love it as do all my friends. Hardcore pinheads aren't that keen on it though as the shots are quite easy to make.
There are plenty of pins being offered for sale on here at the moment that are a safer bet than Ebay. Matt Vince (mv8ball) has got a few different machines up for sale

Just realized the South Park is one of Matts..small world here isnt it...he bought my nba
I bought off of Matt many times honest guy with good machines. I recommend him...
All the new guys looking to buy a pin are spolit for choice with what Matt has to offer.

Well I just won it, We have missed our little pinball and vodka evenings...been pinless over 6 months

Good price, I think helped by the fact that Matt has been busy so unable to put photos of the actual table up on eBay.Matt seems genuine and is well respected on here and would have mentioned any probs. He also offered it up here for 900 so pretty sure it should have gone for more than that.
Say what I say to all newcomers
Go to plenty of meets/shows and play BEFORE ya spend your hard earned cash.
Plus don't forget the two most important phrases in pinball
1. One mans turd is another mans gem
2. The ideal number of pins to own is the amount you have - plus one :jaw:

I think the fact it ended during the slaughter may have helped...half time in fact
good price - had I not been otherwise engaged I might have had a bid but then again I have already had the 'look' twice this week from er indoors so no more pins for a week or two for me :eeek:
Well I just won it,
Congrats,
Right get it set up, get the mates round and get the vodka flowing.
You will soon be back in the flow.

Got it up and running...although the legs are held on with plasterboard umbrella fittings as the leg bolts were missing. Here is my pinball witch in action.I have just refitted my garage out...80% finished....plenty of room for a few more.
That space looks awesome. I would have a classic car at one end, motorbikes in the middle and pinball at the other end.
Good to see the "Witch" is happily playing. My first pictures of my TAF were with the other half having a go. :whoo:

Two rows of pins back to back right down the middle of the room is what you need in there :rockon:
Are you sure thats not Elvira playing that South Park?
Great area to get more machines set up.

Totally agree more pins needed ,we had 3 before I started the interior upgrade though the surroundings weren't great lol. Hi Rudedogg yes it was Matts Southpark. Yes the wife does look a little Elviraish..not a bad thing methinks...as for classic car..here it is my Cossie
Did he let you play his other machines? I played on his pride and joy for ages
pfft. Not a real one lol. My old one I regret selling
Only joking, lovely car and space you have :biggrin1:
Hum, I promised I wouldn't start to post pictures of cars and motorbikes on a pinball site. Finding it hard especially as the Bug is coming out of winter hibination at the moment.
