Quoted from kaneda:

BBB is a pinball anomaly. It's valuable because it's rare. And it's already been remade. With just 200 out there, it by nature becomes a grail game for the collector that has to have the hard to find / rare pin. Like any rare item this thing is worth what someone is willing to pay. I just think the entire pinball market is experiencing a value shift like never before. When hardly any new pins were coming out, we all looked to the past to find value / great games / collectibles. Personally if I wanted to collect something rare, I'd buy a Magic Girl for 17K over a BBB. But again, that's just me. My guess is people with deep pockets are more excited about what's down the road now than what's already come out.
