I am sick of the constant attacks on people on this forum, justified or otherwise. The internet has just become a place where a dealer can't or isn't allowed to make a profit, a restorer isn't allowed to justifiably make their money back on an already cheap machine and then people buying machines just to make a profit, well so what???
People have to make a living and I know damn well who would be there to help me if I needed it with a machine, who would finance a machine if I was short, who will pay me a going rate for repair or restoration and who will always see me right on a machine if I need one.
Some people on here get attacked for reasons beyond me, some get defined as dealers when they are just collectors, some get branded flippers, well if the others are too slow, tough... Some get branded as liars and rip off merchants and seriously, people, we are supposed to be a COMMUNITY!!!
I started the loans page because I have been trying to spread the love and spirit that this hobby has, their certainly is unfortunately an elitist attitude from those with the cash who can afford to buy the very latest ltd editions and its usually these people who are the quickest to complain when someone want's to make a little bit to cover whatever expences or improvements were made to a game.
So people, 2017 is just around the corner, some people have taken rumours and they have gone out of all proportions, I have been persecuted on this very forum for being transgender by people I was nice enough to lend a pinball machine to and there is just way too much slagging off and bad mouthing done on here.
Some people deserve their reputation (Sarah) some people really don't...
Anyway that's my bit...
Happy 2017
