Anyone else had that - One more play before I sell it....Nah I can't sell it feeling?

Got my first Pin very recently. Was an MR Ms Pacman, as it was dirt cheap, and it seemed a good starter pin especially as I love the game. I quickly picked up a well-priced 8-ball deluxe as it is just a good pin that anyone can play. It is very much a one-in-one-out situation due to space. (No wife buggin me issues) . I just went to take some pics of Pacman so I could list it and started up a game for a quick (look it works) video. As soon as that Squak and Talk board kicked in though I thought nah, I can't sell this. Is 8-ball Deluxe the better-designed pinball game? Yes, it is and I am not selling that either, but Pac-Man is just a great theme for me. I am mainly a video game/ Arcade guy and the whole theme just screams to me, plus it's not really a bad game if you like the pac grid.

Anyway, just looking for similar experiences, I am sure we have all been there when you think it is time to let a game go and then you get a reminder of why you purchased it in the first place, and just can't do it. Also I am sure so near misses when you have looked back and thought, I am so glad I kept that game X months ago and stuck to my guns when money was tight

On a separate note if anyone has a nice Pacman playfield then please let me know

I am terrible at letthing things go, or the hassle of selling things. So few things get moved on.

Maybe you can loan the game to someone you trust will look after it whilst you enjoy 8 ball for a while? And I find loans come around and pay you back later, when they laon you something you might like.

This is me!

I don't get bored of any game for some reason. I get very attached because every game that comes through our door I do a lot of fixing or fiddling on and that time will never come back

People say you can always buy another but then I'd have to go through all my tweaks again and it might never play as nice (I know it could play better, or have a better playfield).

I'd rather loan and swap. If we borrow a game I still do a lot of fixing and fiddling for the owner but I can let it go easily because there's no money involved, I know it will leave at some point and it'll be replaced by something else new and exciting.

Its like a drug for me. I get a dopamine hit when I know a game needs fixing
