Quoted from Eryeal:You're lost my friend. (1) He never said the word "sell", he said "cancel". And (2) what is the big deal if he cancels his LE due to the Standard being produced in unlimited numbers so he can use his deposit money elsewhere for a while? It's no big deal, and certainly doesn't deserve to be called the "worst type of collector" for it. For some folks, $1000 doesn't grow on trees.
Look, he bought into the MM LE...it was worth 8K to him. Now he is saying it wouldn't be worth 8K to him because the standard version (which costs the SAME) would have the same level of clearcoat as the LE?? It doesn't make sense to me...doesn't he want the machine to play? It's not an investment. And if $1000 is breaking the bank, an $8000 pinball machine isn't for you. Seriously.
Now, if he is saying the extra clearcoat is the one differentiator he cares about and would cancel to check build quality and reliability when it came out later then I apologize sincerely...but I don't think that's the case with this guy.
