Quoted from Wolfanoz:

Got it relatively cheap.

Hope you didn't spend over $500.

Quoted from PinsideTroll:

magic mike can sell me one for 500

Too late.

I sold the one I bought for the Atlanta youth center for $650 back in May 2012.

I made a whole $150 profit and treated the kids to a pizza party.

It's a turd of a game which is why we got rid of it.

However if you like it, good for you.

Quoted from PinsideTroll:

you should have put an orbitor 1 there for the pizza party so they had something to take a dump in after eating that pizza

If you're looking for advice on what pins to buy and which ones are turds, you're about 15 ~20 years too late.

Some listened to me, some didn't.

Look at my collection for some ideas and start taking out loans for nice originals or for the possible refakes.

Quoted from Atomicboy:

There's a time and place. Posts about opinions are one thing, posts where someone is excited about a new buy is not the place for unsolicited negativity.

I agree. My negative past experience with the game should have never been brought up.

I do apologize.

Congrats to the OP with his new game!

Quoted from Hazoff:

Sorry Mike but a lot of those B/W's games that are deemed great by you and most pinsiders are not great to me at all so its all personal preference. I've owned all of those before and they were fun but became boring real fast, seemed a little to easy and just didn't justify the large price tag. I had as much fun with SST as I did with MM. I liked my Congo and JM just as much and in fact more so than CV,MB or SS all of which are triple the cost. I get what your saying because I did listen to the when I first started collecting, that was a mistake.

That actually was my sarcastic point.

"Personal preference" will always equal to opinions and hype.
