The Warehouse of Dreams.... THE TIME TRAVEL WAREHOUSE!...


Imagine, if you will, a time, back when the world was young and pinballs, arcade, and video games ruled the streets! Here we offered for sale classic games from the 1960's and 1970's- these have all been in storage since 1982 when the warehouse was essentially closed off. The games had simply sat there since then!

Check us out at Better Business Bureau - our business name is John's Jukes Ltd.

The TIME TRAVEL WAREHOUSE is now closed!
Liquidated actually...gone, blotto, dissappeared, feet wired to its perch, met the big one,...

We did buy a bunch of the games though - look around the flippers.com web site for references to TIME TRAVEL WAREHOUSE for these rare condition items!

This is what it used to look like back in September 2006...



Serviceability
Everything that is either NIB or currently working in the warehouse is repairable. It's just the level of skill required.
Video games and solid state pinballs are fairly easy in that the parts can be shipped off to get repaired - to someone like us for example.
Electromechanical games can be more troublesome to repair, but the problems are often easier to spot, plus you can often make a replacement part if it fails.
So it is like the difference between the backyard mechanic fixing old cars and a modern car shop where you need sophisticated tools to find the problem. The same with ElectroMechanical (EM) vs. Solid State (SS).
Even with solid state, though, you can fix things that go wrong depending on your skill level and soldering ability.
If you are mechanically inclined then an EM pinball or arcade game can be great fun, both the playing and the tinkering. Plus you would have the basics to fix common SS video or pinball problems. We do include manuals or schematics if at all possible with every game sold. Plus we provide phone/email tech support to folks that buy games from us.
There are a lot of people that do in-home repairs for arcade games, try looking under "Vending" or "Amusements" in your local Yellow Pages(tm) and ask if the companies know of or have someone that does 'House Calls'!
