Nah - cant be - hed pay to get it done.

Hey, as I said, after hooking up with Angie it was the only NIB experience available - so no way was I going to pay someone to do it for me... that would be like... prostitution!!!

I have purchased these NIB:

LOTR
Sopranos
Family Guy

I purchased these HUO (really low plays):

TSPP
SM

I have to say as exciting as it is to open a brand new pin I find it a little more enjoyable paying 800-900 less for a pin that's slightly used and looks new.  Even better I bought my SM HUO when everyone on RGP was saying the pin was junk because it had unfinished software.  I actually really enjoyed the software and now that they upgraded it it was a real steal  ^^^

On a side note, Nick, how did you tan your head while keeping your arms pale??

I was looking through some pictures from 5 years back - and I'm SURE I have part of the cardboard packing that one of the Bally's came in (Could be KISS, Paragon, Spacies etc)..  I'll have a look and post a picture !

**If** you are talking to **me** (get the name right Chuckles please!!!) it's not tan, it's stage make-up.

All the pros use it.

Just ask Angie, biggest pro of them all...

I hope they are still manufacturing NIB pins when I'm 40 as this is a dream to open a NIB pin on my 40th birthday. #*# $#$

Hmm, too late for me. But I did get a couple of pins a year later.

You could always buy a NIB now, and save it up!
