Not much happening

Filed under: Goofing-off — Chris @ 8:55 pm

Managed to survive this last week being on call.

On Saturday I had the Utah guys show up to pick up their pins. About 2 pm they showed up with a truck and a U-haul trailer.

As soon as they got here we drove over to the Ops place (I found some pins/vids at a laundry mat, so they *are* an Op)

We showed up and we proceeded to look at the pins. Jeff (guy from Utah) proceeded to look around and he found a complete boardset for the games in his warehouse!) That means that I don’t have to go out onto e-scam e-bay to find these boards. That is roughly 400 clams that I don’t have to shell out!

So we walked around the back of his warehouse, there were a ton of marquees, some boards, a few control panels and coin doors. The Utah guys went through and found some parts that they wanted. I didn’t find any parts but I learned a boatload from these two. Jeff owns something like 17 pins and 40+ vids. I also found that he had lived in Rancho Cucamonga (where I served my mission). He was an Op as well! Now he’s a collector.

It was awesome.

The four pins I acquired were:

Doctor Who
Pinbot
Shaq Attaq
Spring Break

Time to fix them up, create some shop out guides and find more games (and bird dog the one I already found.

Oh, I believe that as soon as the next version of wordpress comes out, I will be moving to it.
