    Default Niche Collections

    I have been doing this series called Niche Collections to showcase collectors and their collections.
    Does anyone here want to participate? Pachitalk user emmadog is in part 4!
    I would love to profile someone with a pachislo or pachinko collection that they want to share and discuss.


    Here are the entries so far:

    I love this series of mechanical and electromechanical games. Have long been a fan of seeing wood rail games in pinball collections. These collections go so much further down the rabbit hole for esoteric games. I'd love to see a book that properly explores all these marvels.

    Generally you can find these for like $150-$200 at coinop shows, so I recommend NOT spending $500 unless desperate.

    What coinop shows are you going to?
    I'd love to hit one of those up with prices and items like you mention.
    Do you have a schedule?

    Hellooooo fellow Ontariate! You are in a good location, have you been to the Chicagoland show? Also many in Pennsylvania that would have these.
