    WTB: Used pin lock keg posts

    I've decided to convert my ball lock kegs back to pin locks (bought as converted pin locks). I've searched online and called Kegland and KK but no luck. Considering how many pin locks are converted to ball locks there's got to be someone with a box full of the things willing to sell some.
