Price means everything to me. I can't dump loads of cash on something that is a luxury. I will not pay top dollar for my grail pin but will buy a cheaper game that has the same fun factor. The difference between 1,000 fun and 6,000 fun speaks volumes when the bank account talks.
My biggest question is it ok to negotiate prices or is it frowned upon in the pinball community. If frowned upon then your money means more than you would think.
