What our clients say about us

I have used Rod Brooks many times on fixing my collection of pinballs over the years. I also get excellent advice on maintenance of my pinballs. Rod is my first stop when purchasing other pinball machines as his knowledge on pinballs is second to none. I have no hesitation in recommending his services to all.

As a pinball hobbyist I love playing and tinkering with my pins, and every now and then when something goes wrong Rod from the Pinball People will come and get me sorted out. His knowledge of pinball is vast and his ability to diagnose mechanical and electronic issues is second to none, having a pinball specialist tech like Rod keeps me confident in my hobby and keeps me busy playing my pins instead of me trying to fix them. Keep on 'Keeping the dream alive' Rod, many thanks for all the years of service!

I have been a customer of Pinball People for over three years when I bought my first pinball (Fish Tales). Rod has provided a fantastic level of technical support which has enabled me to keep my machine in a operational manner. I have had the confidence to buy further pinball's (Indiana Jones & Road Show) knowing that I had someone like Rod at my disposal should the need arise. Rod continues to provide a level of service and knowledge base which few in the industry have mastered over the years.

After contacting Rod Brooks from Pinball People, I found him to be friendly and approachable. I had previously explored several different companies to service and repair my pinballs but found no one was willing to travel outside of the Sydney CBD. As I am on the South Coast I was overwhelmed when Rod never hesitated and said "let's see if I can help you out, what's the address". After giving Rod a brief description of the faults on my machines, he was able to diagnose most of them over the phone. I was impressed by his extensive knowledge and experience and this was demonstrated when he started to repair and service my machines on site. I again was impressed when Rod provided me with the most useful advice on ongoing maintenance and care of my machines. I would not hesitate to recommend Rod to any pinball enthusiast who values a high level of skill and expertise. I would encourage anyone who is interested in repairing their pinball, to contact Rod at the Pinball People.

I came across Rod after having 2 other people out to service my 2 pinball machines. My Wipeout machine that was never in full working condition is now 100% functional and my other machine Jurassic Park is back to it's former glory with parts functioning as they should. My pinball machines are my stress release after a hard day at work and now I'm a very happy lady. Thank you so much Rod you really do know what you are doing and your prices are great to go along with your friendly prompt service.

Belinda King

Rod from the Pinball People has been my sole service agent now for quite some time. His technical ability to diagnose (often over the phone) and repair (yes even the south coast at Nowra) is second to none. His professionalism and dedication to satisfying his customer's needs are of greatest importance and yet he does all this in a relaxed and friendly manner. I have had no hesitation in recommending Rod to my fellow pinball enthusiasts or anyone who finds themselves with a dilemma and need some advice or repair. If by some chance he doesn't know, he will tell you and through his long association with the industry he will find out! Now that's service. Minor or major pinball repair/ re-build, Rod is the one for the job. No question about it.

I would highly recommend Rod at Pinball People — not only was he very professional, knew my '94 WWF Royal Rumble inside and out, but he turned up on the day and at the time we booked! Rod, went above and beyond, pro-actively suggesting improvements and fixes — even found things I did not know about — and I thought I knew my machine well. If you are looking for someone to service your pinball you cannot go past Rod and the team at Pinball People.

AJ James

We recently purchased a pinball machine, being first time pinball owners we weren't sure how to go about fixing the machine when it suddenly stopped working. The Pinball People made it easy, we phoned them and they were here the very next day. Rod was able to fix the machine quickly and easily. He even checked all the other components and serviced the machine while he was here. Fantastic Service!

Kellie Baker

I found Pinball People on the web when my old machine (circa 1988) had mysteriously stopped working. Rod Brooks quickly made himself available (which involved travel to the Blue Mountains) and got the machine working again. The solution triggered another issue and when another problem emerged soon after, Rod put himself out and, on short notice, revisited over a holiday weekend. He also helped me over the phone by walking me though resolution of another problem. Rod clearly enjoys his work and has a high level of understanding of the machines and their quirks. I found his charges to be very reasonable. With an older model pinball machine, it is comforting to know that Rod is available, even on the end of a phone line if need be, to help fix it.
