    Quoted from jorro:

    Not having a game room is a big factor.
    I have 3 pins in the living room, and i think my wife is too fond of our dinertable ,coutch etc.

    You stole my answer I only have one in the living room,and two would be too many. I'm also a casual hobbyist,so I can't see myself paying 6,000 for a used game,when I can get a NIB for about the same amount of money,give or take.
    I don't have the room to be a collector,and I hope I never catch that bug,or I'll have to move to another house.A pinsider here gave me some good advice "Join the Pinball Gallery in Malvern PA. for 250.00 a year,play a ton of different games,and let the owner worry about doing the repairs".
    P.S
    I hope I don't get stoned to death, for saying I'm a casual hobbyist.
