    The first time I sold off pins, it was only a portion of my collection, and it was to buy a Porsche. Worst move ever!

    The second time, I sold off 90% of my collection and bought a condo down the shore at Seapointe Village. It is at the southern end of NJ. This was a great move. Quality of life has improved tremendously and the time with the family is priceless. Google and check out the place. It is like I live in a resort.

    I still have three games left, original mint MM and MB, and a Tron LE. Also still have the variety of other games with a Super Chexx, a puck bowler, some video, darts, touchscreen, foos, air hockey, ... They stayed because they basically had no resale value unlike the pins.

    We have fun with the arcade in the fall, winter, and spring. But in the summer we are down the shore. I teach and the kids are off from school. Wife was a teacher but took an admin job at her school and lost her summers off. She comes down for three or four day weekends as often as she can.
