What is the difference between a high-end restoration and a refurbished pinball machine?
+
Refurbished: Thoroughly cleaned and serviced. Playfields are polished, worn bulbs and rubber rings are replaced, minor cabinet touch-ups are performed, and complete gameplay testing is completed.
High-End Restoration: A comprehensive 2-to-3-month reconstruction. The cabinet is sanded down to raw wood before applying original artwork, brand-new legs, and a new coin door. Playfields are swapped for protective clear-coated versions paired with new ramp and plastic assemblies.
Do you accept pre-orders on machines?
