Pricing & Services
Every High End Pins project is a comprehensive restoration built around the time, materials, and craftsmanship required to do the job correctly.
Complete Restoration
Starting at $8,500A full restoration requires a minimum of 100 dedicated labor hours from teardown to final testing. This covers projects on a solid starting platform with factory-correct decal prep, full mechanical rebuilds, and standard playfield restorations. Labor only; parts and materials are billed separately.
One-of-a-Kind Projects
Open-EndedFor highly complex titles, rare prototypes, or custom projects requiring extensive airbrush artwork correction, heavy structural engineering, custom wood stains, or detailed multi-color stenciling, labor time can easily double. These are quoted case-by-case.
Complete Builds. No Corner Cutting.
I do not cut corners to save time, and I am not trying to be the cheap option. I focus strictly on complete, comprehensive builds and do not offer standalone playfield-only restorations.
Built With the Best Available
Beyond the baseline labor, builds utilize the absolute best materials available.
High-End Automotive Refinishing Materials
All physical paintwork, sealing, priming, and clearcoating utilize premium professional automotive paint systems to ensure a mirror finish and lifetime durability.
Brand-New Cabinet Shells
Restorations feature brand-new, precision-manufactured cabinet shells, flawlessly primed, finished in a factory-correct base color, and wrapped in premium high-grade decals.
New Playfields, Glass & Plastics
Whenever available, I utilize brand-new reproduction playfields, plastic sets, fresh ramps, and high-end mirrored backglasses.
One-of-a-Kind Stained Wood Upgrades
I offer custom wood staining on brand-new premium hardwood panels (Walnut, Cherry, Hickory, Birch, or Maple). This multi-step process includes hand-wiping, grain conditioning, and a glass-like protective clearcoat.
One-of-a-Kind Theme-Painted Art Upgrades
I execute custom multi-color stenciled cabinets and theme-painted interior cabinet floors tailored precisely to the title of your game.
Four Clear Milestones
To protect project cash flow and my calendar timeline, payments are split into four distinct milestones.
The Booking Deposit — $2,000
Required at or before your machine arrives to secure your calendar slot. This deposit is strictly non-refundable and non-transferable.
The Parts Budget
Collected before active teardown begins to secure high-cost items such as new cabinet shells, playfields, and plastics without exhausting your initial deposit.
The Teardown Payment
Required when your game goes onto the bench into active physical restoration.
The Final Payment
Once the game is complete, all final parts and costs are tallied. Your $2,000 deposit is applied as a direct credit, the remaining balance is settled, and the game is packed for delivery.
