This is crazy. Come on people. This is a $9-$10k pin all day long. And that’s even with crazy Covid pricing. Enough is enough.

I am not justiying this price... at all... but I am not surprised. If Stranger Things LE's are really selling for $13k... why wouldn't a JP LE sell for more? They almost never come up for sale... and many people consider it the top Stern of all-time (yes, that is very debatable).

I put up a wtb ad up last October and got zero legitimate offers. While I may not be a buyer at this price, I’m interested to see how it pans out.

Going rate on these recently is near $12-$13k with the upper end needing topper/shooter/mods etc. You won't find one lower.

Yes it’s too expensive for me. Just like paying $10 for a single roll of toilet paper is too expensive for me. Paying a 11k premium for a different art package (an inferior one) and green trim is asinine.

I think the LEs look nice, but yea $7500 shipped for a premium NIB makes it hard to justify so much extra $$$.

Yes, is hard to justify no discussion about that. But something that is rare has more value. The flipper experience with prem or le is the same. But thats not the point. Limited editions has always more value when it’s an popular rare item. So simple is it.

You don't understand the LE world. At least how it is here in Europe. le's are already sold out in advance while the theme is not yet known. Do you now understand the requested amounts now? Only less popular themes like black night or Led Zeppelin is still available. But hey, i prefer to pay 10k then 15k, dont forget that

I love when people chime in on some ridiculous price thread with a relatively minor complaint.

"$20K for a monster bash...and no color DMD?!?!?!"

Who said ANYTHING about changing minds? I'd like to have a discussion about the game with someone waaaaay on the other side of the fence, but a FS thread isn't really the place for it.

Not that you had any part in that at all, you're just sticking your nose in the middle of it hoping to get a response. Well...I guess you succeeded. Was it everything you were hoping for?

My tolerance level for poking fun and BS is a lot lower than it used to be, especially since my next self-imposed exile from here will be permanent. But also, my faith in people's intelligence to understand what is and is not a joke on the interwebz has been seriously eroded the last few years, and I don't trust *anyone* in that regard anymore. Even my wife and I have had to get to the point where we're mostly like "Okay, no more serious discussions over text" because tone isn't always clear and things seem a lot more offensive and irritating when they're separated from the physical presence.

Honestly, I should just stay on the crypto thread and STFU everywhere else, though. It's hard to maintain that discipline, though...clearly.
