Way too many games I haven't played to consider a brand new, over priced pin with potential problems that will affect resale/trade value down the line.
I can afford them, but I'd feel stupid paying $8000 for goddamn pinball machine. Say that out loud to a crowd of people - I Paid $8000 for an Elvira pinball machine. It's a pretty retarded statement and purchase. 
Quoted from Indypin:Wow! You’re calling people retarded because they buy 1 pinball machine for 8000 bucks? Believe me, I’ve seen people lose a lot more than 8000 bucks in stocks, trades, getting swindled, fraud, bad relationships, divorces (shall I go on) and have NOTHING to show for it. NOTHING!! What pin can you buy that won’t have potential problems in the future that you hope to sell/trade later for that beach house in California and a Porsche in the driveway?
People will look at you stupid regardless of what hobby you have because your hobby is something they don’t like or understand. To them, you could scream out “ I bought (8) pinball machines for a 8000 bucks” and they would look at you and say WTF! Me, I would stand up, start a slow clap that eventually generates a Heath Ledger Joker Clap saying “ Good Job Ole Man”.
My non-pinball buddies don’t get it, but who cares. When they ask me why I spend that kind of money on a machine, I always tell them “Well, you make more money than me. How come you don’t have a pinball machine in your house??? Or........well.....what do you waste your money on???
BTW....I’m standing up in the Pinside crowd and yelling “ I just spent over 8000 bucks on an Elvira pinball machine and I’m going to enjoy every minute of it.”
Jeez, you took that very personal. 
This topic is "Are you a potential buyer?" and one of the poll options is "No - state reason in comments". So I did. I did not go into the Elvira fan club and say this outta the blue to troll you or anyone.
"I can afford them, but I'd feel stupid paying $8000 for goddamn pinball machine. Say that out loud to a crowd of people - I Paid $8000 for an Elvira pinball machine. It's a pretty retarded statement and purchase."
I clearly stated *I* would feel stupid paying $8000 for an Elvira pinball and that *I* feel it's a retarded purchase.
I don't give a shit what you or anyone else spend your money on. But *ME* personally, since I was "asked" in this poll to state my reason, would feel stupid and retarded saying that to anyone if I did buy one. That's my reason.
Buy what you want, why do you care what I think so much about your purchase? (Rhetorical question, you really do not need to respond further)
Hope you and any other owners enjoy your pin. Sincerely.
