    Hmmm, I think the worst purchase I have had would be either my Shadow £575 ($900) but it was pretty beat up, hacked boards, couldn't start a game and the DMD wouldn't come on. Or perhaps my Wh20 which was £940 ($1500) and had some smashed plastics, line out on the display, pretty ropey cabinet and wear around the raft inserts.

    I guess both of these purchases aren't really bad, especially it in the current market in the UK, but compared to most of the buys I have had they seem high, I just really wanted both of them!

    Over 12 years I have had some pretty strong results to be honest.

    The highlights are probably an Elektra, which was free. An IJ for £30 ($50) a proto CV for £160 ($250) and like pinballslave, my first bulk purchase, which was £1400 ($2200) which included

    Bad Cats
    Dr Dude
    Diner
    F14 Tomcat
    Judge Dredd
    Getaway HS2
    Millionaire
    Mousin Around
    Street Fighter II
    Party Zone
    Radical
    Silverball Mania x2
    Space Invaders
    Truck Stop
    Super Mario Bros
    Mr and Mrs Pacman

    Those were certainly the days!
