Quoted from iceman44:I've purchased games from JJ as well in the past. I don't get the "serious abuse" issue? I like JJ.
I've had a $2k deposit with JJ for 2 years from a SWLE misfire. And trying to get a refund MINUS fees. No reply yet.
Don't buy the LE's from Stern in the first place!
We are getting F ed as consumers here by Stern and the flippers, its BS!!!
Let your "allotment" go somewhere else and STOP selling pins to people like Kaneda. There is your "abuse" right there.
This is all a bunch of manufactured BS demand at these prices. I'm F ing sick of it!!!
I think with non-refundable deposits, most of this issue goes away. Only people who really want a game will buy one, and there will be too much risk for the flippers. Cause seriously, how many new titles actually increase in value?
The other thing that's worth mentioning is that at least for the last two LEs (Maiden and Deadpool), Stern is finally offering alot of extra value for the extra cost. Stern glass, armor, shaker, artblades, mirrored backglass... sure beats the sad excuse of an LE I got when I picked up my SWLE!
