Hi Guys,


Long time lurker first time poster currently building a home in Sydney once home is completed and furnished and save a bit of money then I  would like to start a small collection of about 3 to 4 machines  currently I'm using the forums educate myself on pinball on what to look for when buying and on how to maintain them. it's good to see pinball on the rise again and hopefully it stays up there, until next time <..> Nick

Hi Nick,

Welcome to Aussie Pinball! I finished my home renovations two years ago with a goal of having 3 pins in the games room, anyway I now have 7 with plans for others. They defiantly bred, good luck keeping the collection at 3!
If you've been lurking for a little bit you'll have seen that it's a great forum and most people are only to happy to offer help and advice when needed.
 Good luck with the house and enjoy shopping around a bit when it come time to purchase your first pins.  ^^^

Welcome Nick.

Your certainly going about it the right way.... You will get a great idea of realistic pricing and exactly what you should get for your money...  Best of luck with the hunt..

Welcome Nick .

I reckon your best bet is to buy at least your 1st machine from a collector , I doubt you would go wrong doing that as we take good care of our toys  *%*
