MMRLE is what I am doing. It will be my first NIB (assuming Tron VE isn't around the corner). If I were more patient, I'd wait a year or two and find a nice HUO MMRLE for probably a lot less, but I'm okay with taking the hit in value on this one since I intend to keep it forever, and I've fixed and sold/traded up enough games to cover any losses.

Quoted from SuperPinball:

I think you will find that same sentiment among the MMRLE owners including myself which could mean a dwindling supply.

I have heard that from a lot of guys as well which would translate to high demand.
If both scenarios hold true, basic economics would dictate that the price would not go down that much and may possibly go up.

Possibly. What I should have said was that if I was patient I would wait a year or two for a nice HUO MMRLE or MMR. I believe I read that PPS intends to keep pumping out MMR as long as there is demand. With so little differentiating the LE from the standard, and an assumption that more will be produced as long as there is a market for it, I could only see the game's value lowering. Why pay close to $8k even for a nice HUO MMR if you could order one to your door NIB for about the same?
