JeepMonkey:
Have you posted a WTB for a DM pin?
There was a guy here in KC selling one last August in a moving sale. I think it was at $900 at one point. I did see one on CL in the last coule days. It was in Omaha and it must be in great shape as the guy is asking $1800.
Good luck and let me know what pins they have at the super auction.

I have been watching this one on E-bay. Its been posted several times with no buyer. The cabinet looks kinda beatup and the backglass for sure. I was thinking of offering like $500 for it to see if he'd bite. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=140305593353. Probably wishful thinking though.

Chuck has DM in the utmost pristine condition loaded 100% with sweet LED's (thats about $350+ in bulbs alone so he wont part with it cheaply).
BUT........You can at least play a DM at his place before buying one, or nearly anything else for that matter (or just buy something from him lol).
That guy on ebay you mentioned has listed 80 items in the past 30 days & only sold 2 so IMHO he sucks.
Off topic: Look @ this pic from a story about chucks recent tourney.

Tell me about it, he showed me a DM with the LED's when I went to talk with him about a high speed. It looked awesome - very bright. The DM he had was awesome but not for sale. He said he was getting some new DM's in for sale and would contact me about them but never did. I got the feeling he considered me a MAJOR amateur who didnt have a good feeling for what I wanted so I imagine he basically forgot about me. Cant say I blame him I suppose.....
I would love to get over to his place but its hard to tell the wife...who I havent seen much of lately due to tax season......hey I'm going to go hang out by myself at this guy's pinball arcade and drink beer while you watch the little one. Just doesnt work man......
