Quoted from snyper2099:The problem with saying this pin and that pin can be bought for any amount is... If you have 1200 in hand and want to buy a game tomorrow AND want it in you driving distance, your choices are going to be LIMITED.
So, the better approach is to list the entire list of games you can buy in you area and price range, and people here will tell you which one to buy.
If you don't like that idea, then go to a pinball show and play a bunch of games in that range to determine what you should buy.
