Welcome! IMHO, you've found the best pinball site on the 'net. Regarding your questions - yes, Craig's List is a good place to find pins. Ebay is another, though some of the prices people are asking can get pretty crazy. Here's a link that someone here turned me on to: http://www.bostonpinball.biz/eBay112310.htm It may be a bit outdated, but lists SALES prices - not asking prices. Do some research and poke around before jumping on the 1st deal you find. Feel free to ask questions here - I've found the folks here to be VERY helpful. Oh, and be careful - once you get that 1st pin they seem to multiply when you're not looking.
