Hahaha now thats funny.... :laugh2:
A fan of How I Met Your Mother are you?
I would love to get my hands on a Cyclone. I've been playing the crap out of it in FP and I love it. I'm open to all types of SS pins. If I had my absolute preference, in my price range I would probably opt for a 90's Williams.
I suppose I am expecting the economy to take its toll here in the next couple months so that I'll get some great steal but thats probably wishful thinking. So that thinking is keeping me from pulling the trigger. I suppose I could adopt what appears to be your pinball purchase philosophy....why buy one when you can buy two twice the price....joking of course but you sure arent helping the "be patient" mantra I've seemingly adopted contrary to my overwhelming desire to just go out and snatch one. Admittingly, when I started this search I never even contemplated purchasing more than one but in the next six months but lately I've been thinking two pins would be great. So I suppose I've been waiting around to see if I can catch a bad themed 90's player and then maybe a 80's pin for as much as I expected to pay for one two months ago. Probably wishful thinking. So I wait and watch......a stategy my wife is quite fond of......... :cry:

I have yet to watch more than 30 seconds of that show but now I look like a plagiarizer don't I?
Interbank lending is rising, we printed more fiat paper & said "whatever it takes". Unemployment = the recent spending drop, 8%. Now we save 2% rather than spend 6% more than we earn.............weird how we keep talking about restoring the economy to a borrowed leveraged unsustainable level.
But we will, then we print more fiat paper, been doing it since 1913.
So do this: Divorce the wife, put the house in her name & the assets in yours. Stop making your house payment & save that money....then buy the house via your name at auction for $100k less & then get remarried................afterwards send the money to Highendpins for a dozen beauties.
Its not wrong because the loss will be written off by the lender & purchased by the government who prints fake fiat paper anyway, its victimless I tell you.
Or just get a Starship troopers & cyclone this weekend.
Totally kidding about the semistrawbuying garbage too btw guys, back to the hijacked thread.
JeepMonkey:
Does Joe P do public auctions, or are you talking about ebay auctions? There are public arcade auctions in south KC (Grandview).
Visitor Q:
Never played this one but I like the movie, sequals sucked though. :P

I was talking about E-bay auctions. I dont remember his sellers name but this guy has several pins for sale usually - at least he does lately. Claims they are all shopped out - but PinballWizard apparently doubts they are truly fully shopped. Personally I dont know.
