[QUOTE="alexk3954, post: 63574, member: 111"] UPDATE! So I found a seller who has a giant pinball business and has a near perfect Shadow, or should I say had a near perfect Shadow. It is now mine! This thing has been beautifully restored to like new condition according to the seller and he has several references that say the pins they bought are as described or better. The only flaws are minor scratch on the left side of the backboard and a little welding on the ramps (purely a cosmetic issue). Apparently the ramps tend to break on that machine so he did a little bit of welding an guarantees me that they will not break. Also, the sanctum ball lock tends to burn away the playfield, and that area has been refinished and covered in mylar to prevent future damage. It looks as good as new. I am told the playfield is fantastic and practically looks like it is out of the box. The thing that really sold me on this deal is that I have lifetime tech support included and if anything is not fixable over the phone I can send the part in and have it repaired without any cost for the labor. Now I am confident that I can learn how to maintain and fix whatever problems come my way. I am so excited! I will post pictures and video when it arrives. [/QUOTE]
