Subject: FS – Custom Logo Pinball Mats

I have had my treasured games in my gamesroom for many years. The floor is
hard and cold, but of course I keep the heat down a bit so I can save up for
more pins! Funny thing is many of my buddies did the exact same thing. We
had been scrounging up old sample carpet mats for years and putting them in
front of the games to make it easier to stand there and beat that elusive
high score! Problem is they look horrible, odd ends of discontinued colors
scattered all about my gamesroom. Warm, but hardly a fitting accessory for
my new LOTR!

I looked long and hard to find mats that matched my pinball themes…. they
just didn’t exist till now.

A bunch of my local pinhead buddies got together and decided that if we
couldn’t find these we’d make them. We pooled our games and skills and are
having mats made for all our pins that we now own. Some 27 different titles
in all. We have a few titles already and they are…. well they are
gorgeous! We only made a limited number of each, enough for each guy who had
the game to get one and a few extras in case of spoilage. We also had
minimum numbers that we had to make so some of the games like Haunted House
still have many extras. On the otherhand TZ, which we almost all have is in
short supply already. Other guys outside our group saw these and were so
impressed they bought mats for games they didn’t have!!As a result we have
added two titles to the end of the run at their request. Games that none of
the original group even have!!

The setup costs for these mats is very expensive so I doubt we’ll reprint
any of these once the left overs are gone as we’ll already have our own
games done. So in short if you want one for your game I’d grab it now. If
you wish to buy say 5 and only three of them are ready you can buy the three
and I’ll set them aside, when the last two are ready just pay the difference
and I’ll ship the whole lot at once to save on shipping. You’d still get the
5 qty discount and you’ll never pay more than $12 to ship them all even if
you buy 20!! But I can’t be setting aside titles for guys unless they pay
for them as you know what will happen with all the cheap ass RPGers. We’d
just forget about it or waste all our limited pinball funds going to
Allentown or buying more games!! :-) Hmmm… not a bad idea. But if you want
a title snarf it while you can.
