I currently have a CCC up For Trade, and yes, in every offer I receive I'm informed CC will be repro'd next, your game's going down in value, etc etc. LOL But they still want mine, just want it for closer to repro NIB value.
I'm not worried, either way, since I love my machine, do not purchase for investment, and will simply hang onto it if the market turns and everyone is after a CCr.
But of course, there's a big wrinkle with CCr vs CCC. CCr may have the wider display, but I think it's next to impossible for it to have the complete CCC software. There's unlicensed techno music, party modes, tribute modes (which feature software snippets of multiple Wms titles, like licensed TAF), and software owned by Epigeek.
We'll see!! I almost wish they would announce CC so we can get it over with.
Finding a cheap, all original, superb condition MM is next to impossible right now. And yet MMr's seem to always be available for the same price. I think many may be surprised by the market a year from now, on original MB and CC.
I also own a MB, and it's maybe my favorite machine, so the repro rumors don't affect me at all. I'm not getting rid of it, either way. But for those considering just that, I'd hesitate to let anyone talk me out of it cheap because of the repro. Wide display or not, it's still a repro and has more limits on customized lighting, sound, etc. Originals may dip slightly in price short term, but owners shouldn't do any fire sales because I'm thinking they'll regret it, if doing so solely because of the market.
