the pins i dont care, although its a waste..

anyway, i was hoping one of them fall off too when they walked reverse to the edge, but no

Holy Shit!  :o

Same  :evil:

It's just crazy... how they can spend so many time to bring games on the roof, then destroy them, clean up the place ... and finally bring all that stuff to bin! What a waste of everything! Why not simply sold all that stuff for a couple of $$$ and make some people happy  ???  :o

I've actually done some business with Todd from TNT amusements (bought Suzo inductive joysticks and something else) and really, he is the nicest guy when doing business, extremely fast in shipping and honest as well (when something took very long to arrive he found out that it was shipped surface mail and instantly refunded me the difference in shipping costs).

But I just do not understand this. I know they say they are "junk"  cabs, but what they call junk, we (especially here in Europe) would "kill for"....

That Tempest.....what the hell was wrong with that ???  :twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil: I see a nice firm cab....

Indeed, I kept hoping that one of those guys got tangled in one of the machines and drawn down. That would have been the ultimate revenge.

Pretty smart this, I just decided not to ever buy anything from www.tntamusements.com anymore.(and from the Youtube responses, there are more like me)

DO NOT BUY THERE !!!!!

I'm sorry to say that America is chock full of stupid people, and ironically, they are the ones with lots of money and time on their hands.  :evil:

a person who does something like that and runs a business with arcade machines at the same time has NO LOVE for the games, it's all about money for them!
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

Which is weird because he has a lovely collection of cabaret machines. He even has (or had) the Berzerk cabaret....

What a bunch of twats!

Surely there would be enough spare parts in those machines, especially the pins to make it worth while dismantling rather than completely destroying. Even if they weren't give em away or charge a nominal fee for them.

Stupid beyond belief!

see this ( ironic ) charity gesture at 1:34,  offering a destroyed display pinball to an amateur  ::)

it's the nearly same speechless insult so many times in france,   "ohh you were interested ?  damn, i burned a lot of them juste before you arrived"  :evil:    and while the others are so greedy that they sell you any old guts for $$$  (old things that don't deserve anything for valuable gaming !! )   

rarely we see "respectful professionnals" , thanks for them and their souls,   but shame on the others ,   as superully says,    no respect except for the $$$,   they could have sold food or water or anything, that would'nt have changed anything in majority ::)
