    Quoted from jfesler:

    Awesome, Robin.
    What do we do if we've moved?

    Quoted from wtatumjr:

    I moved to Corolla NC but my verified address shows my old location. How can I change?

    Quoted from northerndude:

    I’m in the same boat. My verified address isn’t my address

    Robin posted this after I contacted him about this issue. He will manually fix it, I’m sure he’ll add a feature to update the address soon. Right now it just proves you’re real

    Quoted from Crans:

    Recently a gentleman posted in FB that somone duped them out of 5k and a pinball machine. Getting all the details shows it was a scam and buyer got taken for a ride.
    Don't trust a Facebook store as anyone can set them up. Glaring details might not be obvious when your excited about your purchase, as time progresses they will probably find the faults and make it less likely to detect.
    PayPal funding for any large purchase should be put on a real CC and not your bank account / ATM, you can even use a real CC as source for friends and family transactions and even venmo.
    Good luck fellow collectors and buy safe.

    Holy shit he really paid with bitcoin? That’s ridiculous. How do people get duped so badly??
    The second someone is asking for bitcoin they better have overwhelming proof to be genuine and have a lot of reputation and good REASON to accept Bitcoin.
    If I wasn’t a die-hard HODLer I’d probably pay Pinside with BTC.

    GOD BLESS YOU ROBIN THANK YOU SO MUCH.

    I have been typing things many times on mobile, left the tab to search information and came back only to have my Pinside Tab reload automatically and delete my reply. It was KILLING ME. Paragraphs and paragraphs GONE.

    This is truly my favorite update of all time right now.
