A week ago, someone put up my coveted pinball game on Ebay. The Cyclone by Williams. Bids started at $500. I really have absolutely no money to spend on such frivolous items right now but in playing out my dream i decided to bid on it. I didn't bid much and figured I would be outbid pretty quickly. Considering the pinball game usually costs about $2300, If for some reason I had won it for $500 I suppose it would have been a great deal. Needless to say it finally sold today for $1499.
Such is Life.
I did buy something on Ebay, I took $20 from my Christmas money and I bought a piece of Cyclone History. I was high bidder on an auction of promo flyers and plastic play field pieces Williams sent out to dealers to advertise the Cyclone. So this is the first piece of my pinball collection.
In reading up on Pinball games, I also found Indiana Jones and Monopoly which look like games I would love to add to my 'virtual' collection. Perhaps I found myself a new hobby.
