I would like to see people introduced to better ways of buying a pinball. Surely a large part of the reason for having an expo is to introduce new blood. Show them that a pinball machine can give years of trouble-free play and enjoyment. Buying a reco machine from a dealer at an expo would be a far better introduction to pinball ownership than an as-is machine from an auction. That and an auction will take-up space and resources that true/more enjoyable expo activities could use.
