Quoted from Rarehero:You overestimate the importance of Pinside or internet pinball forums in general. Most people into pinball don't post or don't even read pinball sites.
No way. 5% if that.
Way!...Eventually people find these sites because of them goggling for technical help on their machines, just take your own microcosm as an example, I will use mine in FL, about 3 out of 4 pinball fans or collectors I meet are either here on pinside lurking/posting or on the local site. I would guess roughly 50% of NIB buyers being here as a safe number. Overseas sales however may be a some what different.
