I think both are fun.
I can buy both.

What pin is the best and why?

They're quite similar. I've been looking for a nice QS forever with no luck. I have a great SW and love it. I'd probably give the edge to QS.

Given equal condition, QS is way harder to find so I would give the nod to that one.

I have both, both are great games. But QS gets the nod for me because it's harder to find

Both are among Stern's best. I'll give the edge to Quicksilver. Add a Star Gazer to the mix and you have the top 3 classic Sterns imo.

Both amazing games: if everything is the same between them go for QS as it is harder to find (at least in the US).

Dragon Fist is in the discussion as well for top 3 in my view; lightening fast.

I put nine ball in the equation for great Sterns as well. I have a Seawitch and a nineball. I would love a QS.
