    Default Pacifica Pinball in CA closing down

    this is where I picked up the 9 pachinkos for $60 today. nice family that have day jobs, too.

    they have a lot of old consoles, I was thinking would be good for MAME setups.

    there is a nice pool table, some older pins, one pin that I think Jeff in CO would like

    the pinball business is not a money maker these days, so these folks are closing down.

    they do have a lot of parts, too, if anyone's interested. I may see if they have some solenoids for my williams SF.

    if anyone knows pinball folks locally, might want to send them to look for parts.

    Lead me not into temptation for I can find it myself.

    Which pin were you referring to? Is it in the pics you posted?

    Not sure where I would put a pin, but I would love to own an antique pin that was in pretty good condition and worked.

    sent you a direct email, couldn't quite make out the name and the ad she had on the top was not the right machine (just checked IPDB)

    say ironworker, the email contact is the one you posted earlier. she's at the shop without a computer right now, though.

    address is 580 Crespi Drive #J Pacifica

    looks like the business was called Pacifica Pinball Plus.

    yes, they had a rack of backglasses, but I didn't check them at all.

    the owner's email is mlamb30@yahoo.com, maricela is her name, if you want to check directly.

    anyone recognize the horse racing pin/bingo, picture 2/3? I was interested and sent the pix to JACKSEA

    I picked up a whole truckload of those from Mississippi and delivered them to somewhere in Pa, long ago...
