    Have you ever found yourself buying parts, translites, Backglasses and other things for pinball and not realize how much you have collected until you start going through it? I was looking for a tool and came across my backglass/translite cabinet and was shocked that I have a total of 68 nos translites and 10 backglasses!!!! I was surprised I do not have any doubles but I do not remember buying all of these!?! I guess I have an addiction!

    I think it's called hoarding and is actually qualified as a disease. j/k gotta be fun finding stuff like that you forgot you had

    I've got 3 translites framed up, each between 2 panes of glass so they have option to be lit up from the back side.

    I think it’s more fun to buy and sell and not amass a huge collection, but I get aggravated when I can’t find items, so that’s me

    Worse things we could be doing with our money. At least we can show where our money goes. Pinball is an addiction I don't mind having.
