Ask 100 different guys and get 100 different answers....I avoid them on smaller cards but don't mind them on bigger issues (Cabinet cards, Goudey Premiums, etc) because those were more meant for display, hence why people tacked them to walls.
I think most collectors will agree that if there is a particular scarce item they have been looking for for a long time, they will gladly take one with a pinhole as opposed to not owning one at all.
Edited to add: in the case of the Jackson, I think all you need to ask yourself is "Will I ever be able/willing to spend the money on one WITHOUT a pinhole?" If the answer is yes, then wait....a couple of those show up every year.
