..spending it on?
What part of our economy is taking a hit because you're supporting the used/new pinball market?
For me, I'm a saver... I'd just have more money in savings.
How about you?

If I had any and it wasn't going into pins. It would be a new rug, and recovering the pool tables.
Once I can make improvements, then more money can go into pins.
LTG : )
Quoted from tamoore:If you weren't spending your extra money on pins what would you be spending it on?
Fixing up our Victorian money pit.
Just savings. Iv been trying to buy a house for 3 years now, but cant get a mortgage due to my kind of work. So I'm saving up to buy a 300k house in cash...
Those wood floors my wife wants. Home is less than two years old, so the carpet is still good I keep saying. Need to get a few more good ones before I replace it all!
My other hobby is photography. Good cameras and lenses are expensive. I've bought 1 pin since 2007 or 2008. But, I built up a cache of projects while I could get them on the cheap, so I've got enough to work on, along with some work for friends and customers from time to time.
Ohhh I may buy a new car, but my jeep chugs along so far. I am getting into buying other arcades such as just got a skee ball and punching bag game. not sure what else I'd buy. Prolly house projects

That seems like a sane decision. Especially with all this fiscal cliff nonsense and tax raises.

Same here. I've already got a nice set of Nikkor lenses, but when you are hot and heavy into the hobby, there's always another lens or even more likely a new body that makes you want to upgrade.
I'm a bit of a hobby freak. There's been photography, home theater, scuba diving, telescopes, guns........and still one of my loves, watches.
Probably more guns and watches.
most likely working on my beanie babies collection.
every since i started collecting the pins, those po beanies have just been collectin' dust.
Quoted from itsmarkda:An addition to my house, that way I could fit more pins.
That is why I am slowing for a while.
Honestly I'd probably not have anything. It's seems when I get motivated to buy something...I can always come up with the cash by buy and selling...do side jobs...etc. Very little..if any paycheck money goes toward the hobby
I have the worst list of hobbies ever in regards to how much they cost: Pinball, Music, German sports cars, Filmmaking and Golf. I need to get into bird watching or something...
