I think mine is a hair better then this. Perhaps I should help out by listing for $5900?

I mean, after all, I have 1 more Hippo!

I suppose I am unsure of the negative attitude towards those that really like this game.

For me, after 44 years, and more games then I list, I didnt expect this game to have the effect on me that it does.
Its not the fastest, or best, its not the hardest, or anything. Its a solid 8, but in every darn category.
Nothing is missing from the game.

As others have mentioned, I find guests, play WOZ, cause its pretty, but not play for long.
Are guests Walking dead fans or not, determines if they even touch that game, but the casual non player loves this game and WH20.
The answer is always the same, its more fun then any other game they have played when they visit.

It doesnt hurt you when you lose, it doesnt beg you to play "just one more".
It feels like a complete and satisfying experience, even to young kids, who flail at the flippers.
The look of the art lit, is stunning and different with all the green, and the soundtrack is so different from others,
it truly stands out.

For me, now, its like, "what game do I want to play tonight?", and Congo fills the bill for fast, enjoyable fun.

I dont have to have my full eyes on like for IMVE, I dont have to zone into Zombies, or work at WOZ to get further, the shots just happen, and even if I am off, I feel rewarded, rather then frustrated.

As far as money is concerned, now that the "drama" is over, i am also unsure why we cant accept a 20% price variation
on a game, even if they are exactly the same condition. Thats $1000 on this one. Supply, demand, and whos the buyer, what the seller paid and put into it, etc.
Sounds like a normal product at worst in todays market. Shop a TV, or New product...20% variation is acceptable.
Jump into my industry, jewelry, and see a 500% variation in prices people pay.

Price Police are a bit funny to me, because of all the variables. I am glad while Congo has diamonds, that the price policing
doesnt try to make sense of that market. It would be a thread in total futility.

Glad its sold, and hopefully everyone Happy.....Its Pinball!
