Revolving Door of Pinball Ownership

[Kenny Taylor]

Come on folks. What machines have you sold then regretted selling. For some folk keep to your top 5.

SM 100% even more than MET

Spiderman would be the one I missed most.
That's why it's staying put.

 

[lukewells]

Freddy Nightmare on Elm Street


only kidding, so long you piece of junk

TSPP . Had a few when they were buy at ik sell at 1.2k . common game I though , always going to be available

should never have sold genesis bmx prototype taxi with real glass first banzai run which was ex showroom 500 plays and the list could go on ...

 

[ronsplooter]

Never really regretted selling any games as they've generally always led to other games I really wanted. The only two I'd probably like to get back at some point are Whirlwind and Dracula

TAFG

Banzai Run.

I regret selling all of them! With the possible exception of Black Pyramid......

Most missed are TAF, TOTAN (both expensive to replace, I sold TOTAN for £850, sigh......) mint Phantom of the Opera, Defender and Cosmic Gunfight (all difficult to replace!)

Oh and Spin a Card (1969 Gottlieb) my first ever game!

Looks like you're missing a Vector from your fine collection of Bally SS games.

Not long sold one actually Andrew....I was going to try for all the 81 and 82 Ballys but for various reasons I've cut it down to just 1981, so Vector and Speakeasy went, no one wanted Pac Man and I thought I'd keep hold of Spectrum!

So I'd be very keen on Embryon and EBD if anyone's got it either one for sale!!!

Spectrum is a quirky, interesting game. Bit of a one trick pony but fun nevertheless.

Embryon is just a thing of beauty. I would like to draw the honourable gentleman's attention to my avatar photo.

The only one I miss that I would buy again other than sst which I already did is Spiderman awesome game!

 

[Sgt GrizZ]

TAFG

Why? The 'Gold' plastics are horrible and the revamped rules suck ;-)

 

[JMP]

Black Rose.... now bought again.
Judge Dredd..... about to buy again.
Dracula..... but no need to re-buy as a mate has one.

 

[Spandangler]

This is an odd one but I regret selling WWFRR! Especially as I replaced it with JM,which lasted a month and certainly don't regret selling.

 

[Sgt GrizZ]

Fish Tales.... both times :-(

Whitewater.... Bought another

Special Force.... Always seemed to pop up on eBay for pennies , of course haven't seen another since :-(

@replicas SM when I had it and also TWD

Sad to see them go, but don't miss any. Thought I would miss TAF but I don't, plenty of better games out there.

I agree. I hung on to games too long that I was never playing. Moving them on and getting newer games that I hadn't played much has really rekindled my interest.
So much so that I am thinking of selling my Addams too.
