Quoted from ultimategameroom:Asking for help moving the machines is completely fine in my opinion but asking for donations is ridiculous!!!
If you can't afford to maintain the dwelling that houses your large collection, It SCREAMS only one thing!
That you are entirely overextended.
Being a young collector is no excuse! Life is full of unexpected nightmares like this and you won't be able to count on anyone but YOURSELF to resolve them!!!
Either find a safer location to store your pins or SELL what you need to in order to make the current location safe!
Young man,It's time to grow up and act like an adult not ask for handouts!
Completely agree with this. It's ok to ask for help moving things but asking for money is a little to much.
Don't get me wrong, I feel bad what happened to you but selling a machine to someone with the rights to buy it back later for the same price seems like a better way to get money. Think of it as a no interest loan. And if you never get to paying them back it's ok because they have the equivalent of it in a machine.
And to everyone who helps this young man I admire you. And I'm sure if any of you need help Otaku will be right there lending a hand
