Re: Retro Festival in November

Yes, what Mike said. You are asking people to bring their 300 pound vintage machines to be lovingly abused by a large audience for an extended period of time. Ok. I get it. I will give entrance for free for pinballs and you will be able to sell. I will open up space later this fall and create a ...

What would be a good equivalent for pinball machines?
Can you please specify what you're asking about here?

Thanks for listening to feedback.
How much are people willing to pay to be able to sell their machines, considering the points from my previous post.

Re: Retro Festival in November

Ok. I see the point of being able to sell which makes total sense. I am willing to allow this for this show. Here’s how the financial model works : Exhibitors not selling are paying 20$ for 1 table, 30$ for 2 and 35$ for three. Creators selling their homebrew stuff pay 20$ per table , non-regressive. ...

Re: Retro Festival in November

You can DM me for more info, ask here, or visit the event page at https://cvcfed.org/vcf-montreal-2-0/ If I bring pinball machines to this, I will need to unload a trailer and park it for the three days. Do you have special exhibitor parking arrangements that can accommodate this? There's a public ...

Need help wiring Daytona USA Twincab

Hi there, I'm kinda re-rebuilding my old arcade I sold here 10 years ago and bought back. It was in a poor condition due to what I suspect a high humidity environment. I'm about to plug everything back in the cab, but I kinda forgot where a cable is supposed to go. It is a 2 wire cable with 2 pins ...
