Good crowd plenty of pins to play and no waiting to play them.
Lots of EMs set up for free play.
Flea Market was OK, too bad it rained. (it did not stop me from
walking around)
Some vendors on the inside had some "show specials". (EG: LEDS 2 fer a
dollar)
Farmers Market (next door) was full of great places to eat and is a
"Must Visit Place" for good eats. DO NOT waste your $$ on the "choke
and puke" food inside the show... just walk across the street.
BASICALLY it was a good show and I had a good time for the $15 entry
fee. The one thing that sucked big time is the wait to remove a pin
that you wanted to buy from a seller....... They had no problem
bringing pins INTO the crowded/occupied area to be set up, but you
could not remove them until the end of the night. Most "deals" on pins
were done prior to the 4pm door opening.
If you are into pins I say: Go and enjoy the show....... and take your
hand sanitizer.

if everybody takes out the pins they buy before 7pm there wouldn't be
any good pins to play for your $15.00 entry fee

Just returned from Allentown and it was a smash! For the first time, I
actually almost sold out of all the machines I took...only brought back a
Williams Spanish Eyes and a 30's pintable and some misc parts....sold ALL
the new old stock Williams speakers (8 CASES!), sold 2/3 of the new and used
backglasses I brought, sold 90% of the playfield glass, all the shuffle
pucks, many cocktail table glasses (for video games), alot of translights,
ALL of the $5 boards (3 big boxes), the ball bowler, all the parts games,
the cash register and soda fountain stool, the seeburg wall speaker
restored, 25 video game power supplies, 15 STTNG sticker sets, and numerous
single items.....the truck has never been so empty!! Thanks all...we had
alot of jokes out there---weather Saturday was great---got a sunburn! The
Heins outdid themselves (again!) Inside was full of pinballs and people!!
See you in Allentown next year and in York in the Fall! Todd from TNT
