Some people love pinball and behave with integrity and fairness so the hobby is accessible and enjoyable to as many people as possible. Some people are greedy douchebags.

Quoted from bigehrl:while we're at it, let's also point fingers and name-call the modders, parts producers/reproducers, restorers, playfield makers, accessory sellers, manufacturers, and every single other person here who ever sold anything for a dollar more than they paid, or that it cost them. I mean, it's a hobby after all. we all pay our bills w our love of the game.
Buying a pin, enjoying it, selling it for a market price that is fair to both buyer and seller is one thing. So is adding value and selling it as a profit. Buying machines to hoard in a box in your basement for 5 years just to be a profiteer and sell for maximum profit at the expense of others who could have purchased and enjoyed it NIB at the MRSP is another thing. I would do the former. I would not do the later, because it feels douchey to me. I won't behave that way. People that do seem like douches in my eyes.
