    Default Hello Everyone again

    Hi guys, long time no talk to, where have all the good machines gone? I was looking on ebay the other day, seems like there isn't much being offered there lately. I would like to look into getting another machine, what's the best place to look for a game to pick up in the DFW area? I recall there was a gentleman in the DFW area who used to restore and sell pachinkos from the Dallas area, is he still in the hobby? If not, any suggestions? I found a Yellow Cab for sale over the net from a Japanese reseller, but of course I was hesitant because of the shipping and not knowing much about the resale business lately. Anyone going to the Texas Pinball Festival next month?

    Hello, welcome back!!

    Sorry I'm not much help with suggestions for resellers as I'm in the UK, but I wanted to say it's always great when members venture back here

    You don't see many Yellow Cabs around for sale these days, so purchasing from Japan (JYA, etc) may end up being the best or quicker option for you?

    Or perhaps you could ask a USA based importer
    to look out especially for that machine and perhaps add it to their next shipment?

    You may want to contact alphaminor he is in your area and may know somebody.

    I saw a Yellow Cab on akimono last night when I was taking a look at their current inventory. They are an importer and have added a US transformer, 500 balls, and free shipping. Might be worth taking a look.
