FS: Original manuals in the Dallas area ,Operator closeout



I know you get anxious but please read the entire post after you have gone thru the manual list at the bottom. There is a lot of info in here.



Partner and I just cleaned out an operator's stock of pinball manuals. Looking to get them out of here. I mostly deal with
arcades, not pins so don't know if I'm asking too much or too little for these. Have multiple copies of some of the newer
manuals. If you see a manual listed more than once, it is one of the multiple copies I have. All manuals are originals to
the best of my knowledge. Op shut his doors in 1998 so I doubt that these are reprints. All manuals are very good to
excellent UNLESS they have been so annotated. All of the manuals have some bumps and bruises and range from from almost
non-existant to dinged, or dog-eared corners. If they have little or no comments, it is a manual I'd keep as a copy to
complete my collection. Most of the older manuals are dusty/soiled covers and some smudged pages due to techs working on
games with these manuals. Older manuals also have slightly yellowed pages due to the acid in the paper.
+Some are better than others. I cannot go thru every manual to make sure that all the pages are there so please check your
purchase when you get it. All manuals are $15 unless I annotate otherwise. I'll use the following classifications for these
manuals:

L: Lightly soiled on covers (some surface dust from sitting not really worth mentioning but it is there)
H: Heavily soiled covers (dusty, stepped on)
SC: Stained cover (coffee, soda, who knows what)
WD: Some light water damage
SP: Stained pages (soda, coffee)
LSP: Lightly soiled pages (dirty hands)
TC: Torn cover or separating from plastic comb binding or comb binding needs replacing

Shipping via priority mail. If you purchase one manual I'll try to use the flat rate priority mail envelope. Multiple
manuals will be shipped via the flat rate box, regular priority mail boxes, or my own packaging, whichever is cheaper for you. I
really don't want to mess with Media Mail as it requires me to stand in line at my local Ghost Office. You know, the place
where you can't find anybody working. If you need it shipped with no chance of it getting folded by the post office, I'll
have to stick it in a Priority mail box which will increase the rate a little but almost ensure a problem-free delivery. Be
sure to let me know if this is what you want. I don't make money on shipping but my shipping estimate may be off by 50 cents
or so. Sometimes I win, sometimes you do. If you order only one small item or so (operators handbook), I'll ship via First
Class mail. If you are local to the DFW area, local pickup is okay if done by this weekend and you let me know in your first post I'm in Flower mound. Cash on pickup.

Please respond via e-mail with "pinball manuals" somewhere in the subject line or your e-mail will end up deleted. First
come - first served. I'll be around for the next week or so but would prefer you place your order as soon as possible so
that I can get these shipped before I leave town again. I've got a good rep in the arcade forums. Some of you pinheads know
me as well and hopefully, will vouch for my integrity. If you find I shipped you something that doesn't meet your
expectations. let me know and we'll reach an amicable solution. I think my terms are
fair. Post questions of a general nature here and I'll try to answer them as soon as I get to them. What you see posted
here is what I have, nothing else. No, I will not sell all of them as a lot except for the asking price each. Anything
listed as having scorecards are the cards that say something like "2,400,000 scores 1 extra ball". Usually a *** of them.
May be missing a few or only be a few. Consider them a bonus.

I also have a small box of plastics I will be posting perhaps next week once I get them sorted.

So:

1. Make a list of what you want (I recommend "cut and paste" and send it via e-mail WITH YOUR POSTAL MAILING ADDRESS.
2. I respond with what I have left from your list and shipping total.
3. You pay via Paypal and I ship same or next day.
4. You receive package and check contents, work out any issues.
5. Leave appropriate comments on newsgroup.

I'll update the list as I see appropriate. Sorry for the long post, don't want any confusion. Be sure to check the entire
list as there are a few repeats later on.
