Great Poll, but I'm confused? I'm exactly 40, so do I use the 30-40 button or the 40-50 button... maybe if I'm confused it's because I'm older? hmmm  glare

That's fantastic! I am 29 and have been a member for 9 or so years. I bought my first collectable (a Duncan parking meter) when I was 11 at the Marion county fairgrounds swap meet in Indianapolis. I grew up doing this with my Dad. How did you get into this hobby? I hope more people of our generation get into these machines and other collectables. I have seen so many collections liquidated when collectors pass away because their children and or grandchildren have no interest in it. What a shame. Our younger generations seem to have no interest in the past. Even my grandparents are giving me most of their heirlooms as they know I am the only one that will appreciate them and never sell them.

Looks like I'm in the majority (41-50)! Boy, that makes me feel old!
I got my first machine when I was a freshman in high school (1984). My parents threatened to call their scrap hauler when I had 4 machines sitting outside their house during college.  veryangry
I am hoping that my daughter (2 years old) will share my love of coin-op items. She loves helping me load up the machine in our gameroom. I have to help her a lot since they are glass bottles.  tounge
