yeah pretty crappy rule if you ask me.  Some of us are regular readers on this site but just havnt got the time to post or not much to say.  I would not have been able to buy Wottos Scared Stiff if this rule was in place earlier and at the end of the day the more people able to access pins for sale then easier for everyone to offload their machines to make room for the next.  Having said that I do love this site and respect the admins rules I just dont agree with this particular one.
