    I would love to have 19K to spend on pins!
    On the other hand... still having only 1 game after 1 year into the hobby gave me alot of experience. I loved the challenge of fixing my first problem with my game.
    Now I'm having plans to take apart every solenoid, replace sleeves and springs with new ones and clean up all mechanics to make it run better (it's very dirty).
    And I know I'm going to love it!

    Have recently made couple of offers on some cheap games.. but didn't win.
    Hoping to get a cheap fair game I can fix a little and sell with a small profit after some time.

    Anyway.. like many before me I recomend to take it easy and try learn something about them on the way
