Time (to do) and space (to to).
Those are the remaining factors.
Many of us have done this with new/used pins.
Most of us have now slowed down/ceased due to exchange rate.
There is little more to tell.
Not a great time to buy or hunt.

School.
No real point gents.
Been quietly saying it for years.
We all require the same help and "teaching".
You can try on your own. Brewmanager "advised" me not to.
I guess I should "never say never", but NIB pins never was my thing.
Too much fun running around gathering historical relics and spreading them around.
Yes, the recommendation was that I post it on Pinside for between $9k and $10k USD.
It would cost that much or more to obtain a rough TOTAN and pay Chad Keller to do one up now.
I am giving the Canadian pinball community some time to try and keep this pin here for a reasonable offer.
While my intent isn't to make this a "philosophicl thread" on purpose, I think the added commentry here is excellent.
When you help others get what they want, it is amazing how Pinball Karma sends you what it is that you want as well.
Walter won round #1 quite concisely.
I won round #2 @ Pinburgh tho.
Walter and I battled @ Pinburgh.
I lead round #3 currently a bit.
Walt keeps score of it all.
More soon.
Whom to put "big coin" down upon tho...
Simple, yet complex questions. How to decide?
Oh yes, Drano leads Rob and I lead in Round #3 vs. Walt.
Since all are distracted; or, "resting tonight" after baseball things...
More another day.
Epic battles.
Very nicely done.
We are all capable of improving our pins.
It isn't a competition and no shame in an example not as nice.
One day you yourself or someone else can make it better, or enjoy it as is.
I "ambulance chased" 2-3 pins a long time ago. Quite the experience.
I am glad friends own those pins now. I won't bother doing it again though.
It isn't worth it unless it is a "grail" type "keeper" pin and most really are not that at all.
The one's I chased were meant for others, so I am...
Thanks for sharing Mike. Excellent story. They were shooting for the film during Pinburgh this summer.
I've seen Robert @ several events over the years but made sure I took time to meet him this year. Great player.
Well done on this event Walt.
I will step up and donate as well.
Looking forward to it as a regular event.
Fundraising is an important part of our lives.
Thank you sir.
I know your "tuning" is great.
I'm particularly "surgical" in what I do write.
Old school collector's know. Time to tell "Tales" to the new. (too)
