    Judging from your favorites you would like a modern pin more than an em (electromechanical) look for a gottlieb dmd pin. They are not as popular or pricy but can be very fun. 1k does not buy much in the more collectable or sought after Bally williams of the same era.

    Quoted from GreyhoundAggie:

    Is there any issue with putting a pinball machine on carpet?

    No unless you never move or play the machine, it could leave an indent in the carpet &/or padding.
