I'm very intrigued by the pin market, and am curious: How much money (current value) do you currently have in pins for personal use? Feel free to include pins that are paid for but haven't arrived yet. It -feels- like everyone has multiple NIB pins on order. Either everyone is accumulating or just swapping. Either way, add 'em up and let us know!

Quoted from KozMckPinball:

Paid? Or market value which seems to change daily...

Quoted from Minnpin65:

Good question! I took it as money out of pocket, but could be perceived as market value as well…

New poll option added because you're all such high rollers I didn't change the "Over $50k" answer since people already starting using it. A lot!

Quoted from pinballaddicted:

Can you tell us how much money you have in Pins in your collection?

You didn't see my anonymous vote? Haha.

(Looks up current collection on Pinside) Pinside says about $27k. In today's market, probably a bit more than that. I have little interest in knowing individual people's answers, but I AM interested in the pin market (and markets in general).

It's also interesting how many people are bringing up privacy or boasting issues here. I have no interest in going to steal CrazyLevi's pins (my rule is never steal from anyone with Crazy in their name) or boasting, but instead learning about the pin market. Most people might think they know what it's like. This is how you actually find out! I knew the "average" pinhead might have had more than one pin, but I'm genuinely shocked that about half of the respondents have over $50k+ in pins (and a quarter over $100k!). This is one more confirmation for me that we are in a period of "Irrational Exuberance". And as a student of markets and behavior, I have popcorn ready as I continue to watch what unfolds. I find these things very, very interesting.
