Really??? Didn't know that one... I get asked regularly from new people to the hobby on how much I have spent in the hobby. I can honestly say a lot more than what you see in those pictures...  


I've talked to a few collectors about that one and all have agreed they don't like when folks ask how much for the collection. I don't mind when a collector asks the value of one game, but the entire collection I find rude. Maybe the real reason I don't like to answer that question is that is forces me to consider how much $$$ I have tied up in games.

I get newbs asking me how much a pinball costs all the time.  Then I get ebay links asking if this is a good deal  
I rarely get asked about the cost of the entire pin collection, generally they save that question for my office which is comprised of many toys and action figures hanging on the wall.

How much we have invested in the hobby can't be tally'ed by looking at the lineup.  You would have to consider all costs such as parts, shipping , UPS brokerage fees, getting burnt on a bad deal, gas, game room, etc.  Personally I try not to keep track down to the penny, its a hobby have fun.

BTW Adam nice lineup, but I would have kept the DWHO in there

My house is allways open to anyone who happens to be in the area and wants to stop in for a drink and some pin.  Let me know when you are in the area and assuming I'm around your more then welcome to stop by.

Well Figure it is about time I updated this, funny, everything on the left row is exactly the same   The right side row has changed so much, games I've had have come and gone from that side and I don't even have pics.

For anyone that says they don't have any room, watch the video and I'll show you what it means to cram games into a basement   

First a crappy video I made with my camera, quality is terrible.

Now if you only sold one of your higher priced babies off, you would have enough to finish that basement off.

I don't know about Mr. Mikeman, but Medvet and I are on different weeks. She's heading over next week and staying the week. I'm leaving early the 28th and staying the week.
