Dumb thread imho. Don't look at pinball as an investment and all will be well. Buy a game because you like it, not perceived value past present or future. Nothing stern does is universally perfect. All you have to do is compare this thread to any given 'when is x game VE coming'. For every person that goes over the edge because another premium shows up there's another that can't wait for a 'new' vault edition of a game to show up. Big deal, get back to enjoying the games instead of stressing over this stuff.

99% of what I sell is to locals and virtually every time at a collector to collector price, almost never full 'street' value. So yes, please remember where the emphasis is I win some, I lose some, so be it. The point is, I don't buy a game and then spend the entire time owning it worrying if random thing X will come along and devalue it, nor do I get overly excited when the opposite happens. I spend the time I own a game enjoying it, if I want to invest there's a mighty long list of things better than pinball.
