I stumbled across this forum on my quest to learn a bit before purchasing my first pin and have been having a look through the forum - seems a great place to look and learn. The trouble is "Ebay auctions 2016" 'page 7' has given me a right fright! Looks like a bit of a minefield out there!
I know next to nothing so any advice on securing a pin welcome. As I am now just about in my 50's I will probably be looking for a pin from the 80's (my era) with a budget up to £1k, but hopefully a bit less. Preferably located south of the M4 as I am near the south coast (nr Bournemouth). Something up together and presentable (LED'd ?) as it's going to be located in nice new home office and hopefully something that's not going to be nightmare to repair and maintain - although pretty handy at most DIY tasks my soldering skills are limited! Am I being realistic here... or do I need a reality check?
Thanks for your help folks.
