Quoted from Pinballmike217:There's also a lot of extremely intelligent people out there who got rich by working hard. Good for them and glad to see they found something to enjoy their hard earned money on.
Pinside says BBB is upwards of $18K, so a premium of $11K - Jeff Bezos makes about $2,500 a second, so if this purchase saved him five seconds I guess he actually saved money
Seriously though, I have "overpaid" a couple of hundred here or there to close a deal as my time is more valuable right now than after I retire. I am sure there are a lot of people between Bezos and me that would find $11K to get the somewhat rare pin they want a deal, with an Ebay guarantee as well as we all know they favor the buyer.
And you can play it, unlike the 1909 Honus Wagner Baseball card (only 50-75 made) - In very good condition, $4 million (for a piece of cardboard). I am thankful there not as many rich pinball dudes as there are rich baseball card collectors.
