  1. Hi all...just a heads up to anyone in the Cincinnati area...there is a pinball convention this weekend that looks to be a pretty good time. It is the first one around this area that I have ever been aware of. I am not affiliated in any way, just passing trying to get the word out to those that may be interested.

     

    Info at www.pincinnati.com

     

    I hope it gets good support from the locals so the organizers make it an annual event.


  2. I was talked into going to a flea market today by a co worker. I did not want to go, but did not have anything else to do so I decided why not. I did not think there would be anyone selling their wares outside, but since the weather has been pretty mild in Cincinnati the past couple of days there were quite a few vendors set up. I was looking for my usual lot of stuff video games, wrestling figures, 80s toys, and records. While I did not do any good on toys or games, I did manage to get about 30 or so good to great 80s rock/pop albums for a whopping 8 dollars. We finished up and went inside (a waste of time). I was ready to call it a pretty good trip happy with my record finds. We were walking to the cars when walking towards me was a guy with what looked like a 2600...I stopped to get a look and while I did HE THREW IT IN THE TRASH CAN. Less then a nanosecond later I was reaching in to pull it out to see if it was what I thought it was, and sure enough it was a vader, with two controllers and original power supply. My co worker was horrified that I had reached into the trash for it, but I told him that even if the console was bad I could never have enough joysticks or power supplies.

     

    anyway I got it home, cleaned it up....and ....FLAWLESS...

    I won't say I have thousands left but I do have some to spare if anyone is interested...they would be freebies...

    I had one already so I traded it for enough cash to come out a little bit ahead as well as this which to me is awesome since mine quit working awhile ago..post-46681-0-92281800-1481497773_thumb.jpg
