I find it fun to click on people's profiles and see what all machines people have. Some of you have some pretty awesome collections.
Was curious, let's say that for some reason you had to sell all your machines, but you got to keep one, what would it be?
For me, if someone came to my door saying they'd give me $1500 more than what it's worth for my Jurassic Park, I'd say no.

Why would you say no? You could buy two JP then. J/k
I think I'd keep my AcDc premium or IM to last.

Ok, in this alternate universe, all pins are of equal value. There's nothing worth more than the next. And there's only one of every single machine.

That may actually be true about Pinky.

In that case, I'll keep AcDc premium.

TX-Sector, Vector, and Future Spa sure aren't for sale in my area or I'd have them already. As far as my games go, I can't imagine a scenario where I'd ever sell WCS or TZ, both because I love the games and I've put $1000s and dozens of hours into both of them. Having to re-buy them and start from scratch is a nightmare scenario.
STTNG
Still the game I've had the longest and at this time will still be the last one to leave.
Quoted from WaddleJrJr:Nothing in my collection is a keeper. I guess Black Knight because of sentimental attachment, although I really dislike the gameplay.
Agreed.
Offer me $1500 over what I feel its worth, Ill grab the beers and move it myself.

My stepson, who says he doesn't like pinball much (he's grounded!), says he wants a Black Knight.
Quoted from freddy:CONGO.
You sold it
I sold everything but my Keller restored MM now I also have AC/DC Luci, it would be very hard to part with either of them.
Quoted from Geocab:My stepson, who says he doesn't like pinball much (he's grounded!), says he wants a Black Knight.
Oh I don't think he wants my Black Knight (lower playfield has large spots worn to bare wood, cabinet is scratched and was painted entirely black at one point, backglass is badly flaking, also the game has frequent technical problems).
It's in such poor shape that it wouldn't sell for more than $500 or so anyways, so at that price the sentimental value makes it worth keeping.
The Shadow for me. I purposely keep putting more money into it and will continue to do so just so I'm never tempted.

Have you bullet proofed the boards using Vid's guide?
You are asking this question with the assumption that you can NEVER buy the same title back? Or just that specific machine back?
If I knew that I could buy any titles back at a later point in time, last would be Space Shuttle.
If I knew that I could NOT buy any titles back at a later point in time, last would be Metallica.
But I'm thankful that we don't live in such a universe. So I keep them all until I run out of space. Then I make more space. Then I put them in storage, then I keep them at relative's houses, then I put them in arcades on free play, then I start to part them out and smash them.

Which machine do you have the most attachment to, if the value of the pin means nothing.
I recently had someone offer me $3000 for my Flipper Football. It's not my favorite pin, but it's by far the most fun to play when it comes time for parties. Don't get much better than beer and team competition. The cabinet is about as nice as they come and I swapped in an NOS cleared playfield.
I said no.
