I was the lucky Pinsider who was Rob's 1st customer. He was fantastic to deal with! I bought a Stranger Things that was located in Lewiston NY, the furthest point in the state away from Long Island. I happened to see a post he made that he would be driving across state for another pin and reached out to my seller to see if he knew him. Not only did Dave know Rob, he's his neighbor down the street from him. He kindly gave me Rob's number and we made arrangements for us to meet up at his target house. He communicated with me throughout the whole process giving me updates and arrived right on time. My pin was blanketed and mummified in shrink wrap and then wrapped in thicker blue plastic. He had it strapped down under a tarp in case it rained. When I brought her home and removed her from the car it was raining and I didn't have to wait to bring her in. Rob saved me a ton of time and effort and was well worth the cost! I highly recommend him to anyone that wants their pin delivered properly! Deal with confidence and spread the word. I wish you good luck in your new venture Rob! Since Fast Eddie has retired I hope you're able to provide us pinheads with the same great service for years to come!

Following; there's a large void in this area after Eddie retired. I'm hoping I have a need to reach out in the future, best of luck with the business!

Good Luck! Bookmarked!

PS: I’m in New City but was out of town when you were here last week. Didn’t want a
Scared Stiff but please tip me off if you’re back in town with a game to sell.

Sounds like I finally have a local-ish place to point people too. We have had several people asking about how to get a game around just pointing them to typical freight companies is daunting for them. Good luck, will book mark this for the next one..

I bought a pin locally from Rob. I’ve been to his house and seen his collection. He takes great care of his pins. All immaculate. He has the equipment to move pins, and I’m sure he’ll move your pins with great care like he did with mine. There’s something to be said to have a pin collector move your pins.

Will you be making your way down south any? Tennessee in particular.

Hi Guys,

I don't post very often anymore, I mostly look around but I have been on Pinside around 20 years. I met Rob years ago before his love of pinball, when he was doing Large HVAC work for me at my company. From that we became fast friends. He actually got his first pinball machine from me, a T3 and I remember telling him it will either be one and done or you will be on the same road I have been since 1994. Well he chose the latter and here we are. Rob has sold a bunch of machines for both him and I over the years, he takes great pride in being honest in his descriptions and answering any questions. I have also been the beneficiary of his white glove service which started out as a joke between him and I but it is actually very true. When I get a new game he always comes over to help set it up or move a title out, going so far as to pick up and even deliver to the customer. I can't say enough good things about him, like I mentioned he is one of my best friends. Rest assured he will take great care in moving any machine pretty much anywhere.

I know Rob very well. He's a great person, I just used him to grab a pricey game from New City this Friday and it couldn't have gone better. Definitely give him a ring if you're along Eddie's usual route!

Awesome!!!

Good information to know! Losing Eddie was a huge loss, i will definitely reach out next time i sell a game and the buyer wants it shipped in the NE.

Awesome, I will keep you in mind

Thank you so much for the kind words! Will do!

Great news for the northeast crowd!
Wishing you the best of luck, will definitely be giving you a ring if anything comes up outside my range.

Rob’s one of the good ones. Genuinely one of the best dudes I’ve ever got the pleasure knowing. I’ve done a bunch of deals with rob, he’s extremely meticulous and handles every game like it’s his own. I’ve used Rob multiple times for pinball runs and it’s always been a great experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to give Rob a ring if you guys need a machine transported.

HVAC is a great trade, learned a lot. Good luck with your new venture and stay clear of the attics and those midnight “emergencies”.

Maybe you’ll be transporting some new demo games from my show this year or buy one yourself!

Rob is awesome to deal with. He is definitely filling a void. I look forward to using him and highly recommend him for transport needs.

I can’t recommend Rob enough - we’ve done may deals in the past and he’s just a stand up guy who is accountable and always results in a great experience. One of the best pinsiders I’ve met. Bet of luck buddy - I will certainly be a customer!

Bookmarked for the future. I don’t have the time to grab a game these days with a 6 month old at home and an 8 year old that has never ending events on the weekends. I’ll definitely hit you up next time I’m buying/selling. Thanks for offering this service!

Make pinball shipping great again. Eddie was super cool.

Maybe a great option for buyers would be to offer picking up games and dropping off to closest Fastenal store for their blue line shipping. Many sellers refuse to ship so this is a way around that.

Following. Sounds like a great alternative to STI if you stick to the northeast.

Best of luck Rob in your new chapter of life.

Just bought a game from Rob, it was packed excellently and the drop-off was easy. A very passionate and friendly guy, glad to have someone to fill the Fast-Eddie-Void!

Just here to comment on how awesome Rob is. Really excited to see this new venture for you! I’ve had the privilege of being able to play Rob’s collection at our local league, and everything he owns is just PRISTINE. The man has a passion for the hobby, and an attention to care and detail.

Like others said, it’s great to see that little void being filled after fast eddy retired, even better with him right in my backyard!

As someone who’s dealt with STI a lot, that’s not pricey at all. And my games never get delivered mummified like that. Freaking awesome man. Keep up the great work!
