Quoted from Atreyu:

I was impatient, impulsive, and didn't plan accordingly.

That sums it up for me. I would have been so much better off had I waited and gotten to know others already in the hobby. Of course, at that time I knew nothing of Pinside, nor did I know a single person who owned a pin, so I an easy mark for someone wanting to unload an overpriced machine. As they say, "Education is expensive."
