I have been using the pinball owners web site that Sparky mentioned for a while but only fully registered recently. It is an excellent site and has great search functions and tie ins to eBay. Definitely need to bookmark this site.

The number of pins are also shown by the country of origin for the member. Canada is up there but I am sure that if only a few of us put in their list of games, we could jump ahead of France and Germany very quickly. Also gives you a sense of who is looking for what which helps in the sales category!

Quoted from Vengeance

Not everyone is comfortable with anyone and everyone knowing every machine they have at any given time.

If anything I find the lists slighty agravating, not to single anyone out but Gory is the worst offender, I have to scroll down like 6 pages to get past his list

i know.  its bad.  i should learn how to sort it like others have so its the same amout of machines but taken up less space.  others i think have posted more in there signature and loads do it fancy flashes or avatar posts.  but they end up taken less space.  i will try and fix it sometime

Keep in mind that posting pin lists a) makes you a potential target of thieves, b) could be used by taxman if you don't claim income on pin sales.....

The taxman could have a field day on this site....with or without the pin list.  Perhaps we should have an arrangement that any price mentioned on this site should be only 50% of the actual selling price.

Your not the first to mention this. I understand your issue and removed all of that from my signature block. It was helpful when I was upgrading to show what I had and could trade, but I am just not trading or selling to any great extent anymore. There are a few I still want but IMHO I am pretty selective now about what goes out the door.

If thieves can figure out how to get the machines out of my basement, then bravo to them!

I pity the guy who tries at my house... oh, he can get them out... but if I find out who it is... party time.

Quoted from Sparky

I fixed it for you... you had signatures disabled in your account.

Damn you Spakry and your good will!   (I had it disabled on purpose because some of them were getting out of control...)

Back to normal then.

I used to be in the security business. House is barred, high security deadbolted and has an alarm not to mention other items that are not so obvious. Then there is the issue of moving them. Like I say have at it. It's easier to hold up a bank.

Sad fact is they probably would go after the car before any pinballs.

Yea if anyone get the machines out of my basment, they deserve them   

If anyone can get INTO my basement ( and do so without stepping on screws, nails and sharp tools ), then they are a better man/woman than I.
