Quoted from chocky909:

Still MOPLEs available in the UK. PH has them (well at least one) advertised at £6,695.00. Strange that there isn't the same rush to buy over here. Any other non US Pinsiders got info on availability where they are?

Maybe cos that equates to over $10000 for a pin that has not been played by anyone

Talk about Stern capitalizing on the 'missing out on something wonderful feeling'

People always want what they can't have and then they want it more and more, the harder it is to find.

A home run for Stern.

So, there I was planning to buy ST LE.

All this does is ensure Stern can raise the price any way they want.

Crazy hobby

Our version of buying Tulips

When the Tulip Bubble Burst

Long before anyone ever heard of Qualcomm, CMGI, Cisco Systems, or the other high-tech stocks that have soared during the current bull market, there was Semper Augustus. Both more prosaic and more sublime than any stock or bond, it was a tulip of extraordinary beauty, its midnight-blue petals topped by a band of pure white and accented with crimson flares. To denizens of 17th century Holland, little was as desirable.

Around 1624, the Amsterdam man who owned the only dozen specimens was offered 3,000 guilders for one bulb. While there's no accurate way to render that in today's greenbacks, the sum was roughly equal to the annual income of a wealthy merchant. (A few years later, Rembrandt received about half that amount for painting The Night Watch.) Yet the bulb's owner, whose name is now lost to history, nixed the offer.

Who was crazier, the tulip lover who refused to sell for a small fortune or the one who was willing to splurge? That's a question that springs to mind after reading Tulipomania: The Story of the World's Most Coveted Flower and the Extraordinary Passions It Aroused by British journalist Mike Dash. In recent years, as investors have intentionally forgotten everything they learned in Investing 101 in order to load up on unproved, unprofitable dot-com issues, tulip mania has been invoked frequently. In this concise, artfully written account, Dash tells the real history behind the buzzword and in doing so, offers a cautionary tale for our times.

Quoted from mnpinball:

With all the excitement for Metallica and Star Trek how is the game coming next between the 2 even going to have a chance ?

Well, that is the first I have heard there may be a another game before Star Trek? Are you serious????!

Well makes sense as they know ST will sell a ton. While the market is hot, push another title out.

Walking Dead?????
