How's your Rancho? Wasn't it a project when you got it?
Quoted from beelzeboob:Dude's not even 20 yet, has more machines than me at 52.
F...M...L...
But you have some nice quality titles 
Quoted from dmbjunky:How's your Rancho? Wasn't it a project when you got it?
Still on the chopping block, I actually haven't set it up yet. I got it for $100 and then the same guy brought me (he lived in CT but had to make a dock pickup 15-20 minutes from my house, what a wonderful coincidence!) a Triple Strike for $80 on the same trip which turned out to be in superb cosmetic condition (just covered in filth), so that is what got set up first. It was filled with cat hair and since I am slightly allergic those games usually never make it to the basement and one day (probably during the summer) I hope to do some deep cleaning in them.
I assumed Rancho had the same fate which made me want to set it up even less but I took a peek inside through the coin door and didn't see anything so maybe not. The playfield wasn't as good as I had hoped, bad touchups, probably the worst playfield I have as most of my games are really really really nice in that department, I get lucky on that often. Still should be a fun player though. Love the theme!
IN: WOZ, DW, TSPP, RBION, LOTR, Flash
OUT: RFM, FG, SM, TSPP
I am learning I am a relatively short term owner. TSPP had the shortest say at about a month. SM and RFM were around the longest, both just under 2 years. I'm slowly starting to learn you can love a game without owning it forever. I only have so much space and there are still lots of pins out there I haven't owned / played a lot!
Quoted from beelzeboob:Who cares about machines when you've been fighting through that, Mike? I hate to go off topic here, but I've been praying for you and following your progress this past year. We're so happy to still have you here, and hope you eventually can get back to a place where silly things like pinball can seem important again. Be well...you're one of my heroes!
Your right , and thank you very much.
Quoted from o-din:Are we really supposed to keep track? Sorry, one year just blurs into the next.
Stop smoking blunts. 
Quoted from beelzeboob:Stop smoking blunts.
What for?
Just listing wait stayed as in to avoid confusion.

Out: SF2, LOTR, TFTC, WW, BF, POTC, BTTF, STTNG, BSD, I500, SG, NGG, BR
Think I might be missing a few, but it feels weird. I wound down the trading/selling back in August. Decided to focus on getting things to keep.
dung that is quite the change. Is this because you like these games in particular or you like collecting hard to find games?
In: Twilight Zone, Royal Rumble, Vulcan x 2
Out: Spider-Man, Hook, Target Alpha (I do miss Spider-Man and will probably try to get another in the future)
In: WH2O, Met Pro, Met Prem, GB Pro
Out: Tommy, Met Pro
Quoted from oohlou:dung that is quite the change. Is this because you like these games in particular or you like collecting hard to find games?
Before I moved I had built up a nice collection. Some machines were traded/sold to fund new machines. For example I really liked I500 and wanted to keep it, but I was offered a nice BSD at a good price so I500 left to fund it. Had to sell down to move had a nice POTC, really nice LOTR, and SF2 project. Lucked into the first radical, made some trades and lucked into airborne and a second radical. Overpaid for pm, but its tough to find and wanted it back.
At that point decided to focus on rare games because there are tons of collectors here and wanted my collection to be different. The machines are tough to track down and as such I want to hold onto them. Spending hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to get things where I want them.
Quoted from Kkuoppamaki:Where do you guys put all the pins, seems most of you had more in than out?
Have you been talking to my wife? She asks the same damn question every time I get another one...

Sweep them under the rug 
I finally heard a few words from my wife last night about the hobby "HOLY SHIT WHEN DID YOU GET 10 OF THESE DAMN THINGS?!" Little does she know... that is NOT my cutoff point
Quoted from beelzeboob:Dude's not even 20 yet, has more machines than me at 52.

Sure, but you can still order from PBR. (As far as we know.)

1 other as of yet to be determined
(although I might be able to only send out 2 if I move a video arcade out of the game room and keep a pin in there instead - but wife may not take that too well)
