Man I wish I could remember that guys name.  He was a business owner in the trades somehow, I think it was an HVAC business or something.  Had like 3 or 4 tables at his business or something and they played all the time.  There has to be someone on here that knows him...

The nice thing about Tornado's is that the parts are, for the most part, easily replaceable.  Good luck finding parts good parts for an old TS, Dynamo, etc...

Hopefully that Red Baron table is a diamond in the rough.

I called and left a message for the guy about the Red Baron table.

My wife is from Toledo, and she says the Red Baron was a game room in a mall that closed about 10 years ago.  So who knows what that could be?  I'm always surprised by people who post something on Craigslist but don't bother to include the maker or model.  But then, I guess you can get good deals that way if you ask.

Talked to the Red Baron guy last night ... and he sold the table the day before.

I think I'm going to call the guy in Marion with the blond next.

I talked to Dan in Marion (the guy with the blonde Tornado).  He wouldn't budge from his $650 asking price.  He gave me this story about how he "can't keep them in stock" ... and they're sold as soon as he gets them ... and this is his last one.  Strange, because while his craigslist ad is new, he posted the same one (same pictures) a month ago ... and just pulled his old ad before posting the new one.

I wasn't that hot on buying a blonde anyway (I think I'd rather have a brown marble or grey marble) ... and we didn't even get to the issue of the rust on the pictures.
