Quoted from TRAMD:I do sometimes wonder how some of you have enough money to buy pins when you can't even capitalize, use punctuation or use the correct your/you're or their/there/they're.

Quoted from Pinballlew:People that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Read your first sentence.
How is he throwing stones when he then wrote this ..
Quoted from TRAMD:. I paid over $9000 for it and maybe I won't make my money back but I don't care because I bought it for fun, not as an investment.
Quoted from TheLaw:By our teens the fighting games were becoming top dogs around here, besides pins. Mrs. Pac-Man maybe, but she blew Pac-Man out of the water and it was almost impossible to find and actual PM.
I agree, but in my day (im a child of the 80`s) , only chicks played Mrs Pacman. 
Quoted from RandomGuyOffCL:.I kick back on xbox all day with a cold beer and buy pins with my wife's commission checks...
Epic !!! 
Quoted from Electrocute:It's reality, with joysticks,
I play with my joystick almost daily...
Quoted from cosmicjim:I think his arguments have merit, but I don't completely agree either.
I totally agree !!
Quoted from cosmicjim:I also think the least desirable dmds could sink some.
Can someone say WWF ?
Quoted from RandomGuyOffCL:I've got kubota in my backyard somewhere...but nobody pays me to play with it
I hear ya ! I got my wife in the backyard somewhere also. And no one plays with her either ! 
Quoted from usandthem:I don't know if prices will continue to skyrocket, climb slowly, hold steady, fall slowly, or crash. But I'll go on the record as saying that I'm hoping for a big, fat CRASH!! When you're currently a looker instead of owner, you definitely shouldn't be on the side of the owners. Lord knows that they're not going to come down for you just to be nice.
Maybe you should find a hobby that you can afford ? Just sayin....
Quoted from Astropin:"Most" people can afford this hobby.....but not if you're only interested in A-listers or NIBs.
I agree. Lots of affordable pins out there beyond A list but thats not what he/she said.
Quoted from taylor34:Uh, no. Not even close. Need to sell about 100,000 more games in a year to be even remotely close, like 10x what they're probably selling now. Only thing that's increased is home ownership.
I was thinking the same thing.....
Quoted from orangestorm87:But in the end, I just assume pinball is like most hobbies for people with not much extra money laying around. Start small and slow. Then over time grow, meet people, get some deals, and simply enjoy what you are doing
Please refrain from making so much sense please!! That is not an acceptable attitude in the thread!!
Quoted from DaveH:Keep that up sparky, because sarcasm usually works out really well for people in online forums.
Are you being sarcastic ? 
I think that the price of nib pins are what is partially to blame for the driving up the value of older machines (especially 90s bally/williams titles). A nice $6000.00 Adams Family or TZ doesn't seem all that out of line when a nib can run you over 10 grand.
Quoted from g0nz0:Thanks man. I love it. And you might not believe this but I really did start this topic to share my opinion and get other opinions. I didnt expect so many to attack me and I retaliated. And Im sure people probably hate me but honestly Im a nice guy who brought up a sore subject and became a target. It was my mistake and hell I tried to delete it but I guess the mod was enjoying the back and forth.
So if I personally insulted you by disagreeing with ya. My bad. Nothing personal.
Hopefully in another topic we can agree and along. Thanks for the kind words. I haven't seen many in the past 24 hours lol
I honestly think that you have been pretty decent and polite through all this. Some others, not soo much. You were just stating an opinion, not a fact and got ripped for it although i do see why many are very tired of this type of thread. Move on and enjoy the many many things that Pinside offers. Lots of fantastic people in here. 
Quoted from snakesnsparklers:We're gonna need some pics asap
+1
Quoted from littlecammi:It would have stopped two hours ago if you hadn't just posted.
Yeah, sure it would have !! lol
Quoted from kklank:These are the kind of threads that take the fun out of this hobby. Thanks gonzo.
Sorry, but totally not his fault.
Quoted from g0nz0:Thank you for replying, you made my night. I was seriously sitting here earlier thinking to myself "does nobody really see how slammed I got first and see why I got angry those times. Do they not realize my post is just a theory, not a fact".
You gave me hope again!
All good...You did no wrong. Regardless of what others might say. Last time i looked it was Pinside FORUM . Thats right, i said it ... FORUM guys !
