Pin Locks are the way to go. You can Flufah up the connections and they are just as easy and economical to find.

I have acquired most of mine from people that think you need ball lock, so they are getting rid of their pin locks. I have never heard a valid compliant about them!

Well the sizing is certainly better, but now you look like Justin and I don't know why anyone in their right mind would want to look like Justin ;)

I think it is a matter of personal choice. Of note: the pin lock kegs are shorter, and may fit better into certain fridges that have limited height. Of course the taller thinner pin lock may fit more depending on the width of the fridge. More people have ball lock, easier to take kegs places and have equipment available.
I brew, therefore I am.
