    i know pinside has the pinball map, but that thing is difficult on a laptop or phone. is there a different option to search within say a 200 mile radius for what is for sale, or by zip code, anything like that?

    Previously there was an option to set a center point on the map and then choose a radius, but it no longer is present. I would like to see something back as well. I like to look local when I am traveling.

    Side note, you can hit the list button when in the map and on classifieds, but it still is not an efficient bway of browsing.

    I think that option disappeared when the change from google maps to the open source map was made. It would be nice to have back, I agree.

    I think you can enter games on your wish list notifications within a certain area and it will email you when one comes up..

    If you are talking about the Market Classifieds, there’s options in the “advanced” section that do what you want.

    1) Go here: https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds
    2) Under the Advanced section, you can enter search criteria like condition, etc - plus a radius from wherever you set for your home city, then do the search
    3) You can save that search as your default when viewing the classifieds at the link above

    Hope that helps!

    The distance is only for your home location though. It would be nice to search specific areas in the classifieds list format.

    Set your home location to what ever location you want, then search and switch back after you’re done
