Quoted from thundergod76:This is shocking if true. Even a pin with less than 100 plays is one thing....USED! I'd never expect to get back what I paid selling a used game. And I sure as hell am not gonna pay full price for a used game no matter how rare it's perceived to be.
I know we are talking apples and oranges here somewhat, but what did a NIB Monster Bash or TOTAN cost at the time it was manufactured? My point is, MB is advertised currently on this site for $9,000 and up. I guarantee you that is a USED game, yet the price has to be higher now even accounting for inflation than when it was new. (I could be wrong here - someone please correct me if so) I agree with you in principle thunder, but the fact is, pin values can whackily increase even when used. That being said, I realize you were talking about newer/used games instead of older classics, but who knows, maybe 66 will be the next generation's classic, the one they all want, selling for $25,000 to some techie living in New California (after the big quake breaks off and creates a new coastline! Yes, I own an Earthshaker).
