Quoted from a_derelict:A lot of estrogen in this thread. I recommend sunlight and b vitamins. Ads sticking around through Christmas so get used to it.
Will you be lobbing up any more softballs in this thread? Flashinstinct got to the last one before I could, and he knocked it out of the park.
Quoted from dung:And then stern would charge 10k+ for it.
Ironman VE and Spiderman VE were not less than what the collector market was already asking.
IMVE was way less than IM 2010 market price. SMVE was substantially more than original SM market price.
Quoted from dung:For a modded out huo yes. For a run of the mil average routed one not so much. Which is still the case with machines now. Lotta people ask well above sterns nib price for their modded huo machines.
Nope. As an IM owner I saw the value of mine drop by about $1000 (possibly more) overnight. People just could not pry IMs from their owners before the VE:

Oh, and then there was this fiasco, where Cointaker wanted $6500 for their IM, prompting Black_Rose to switch allegiances to Comet LEDs:

Quoted from Banker:BR actually never switched. Bought IMVE from cointaker.
He did briefly, or at least posted some pro-Comet stuff. Even discussed his "stock" in cointaker as part of the betrayal (of sorts).
Quoted from Pinballerchef:I never seen that thread but after just reading over it I get no indication that B_R switched supporting CT leds for COMETS. He was actually supportive of Chris making the sale.
*saw. You never *saw* that thread.
Could have been in another thread, or maybe B_R edited his post, but he definitely was posting some pro-Comet stuff at the time.
Quoted from PW79:IIRC there was an IM situation where a Stern distro stated an IM was HUO when it was later said (by others) to be routed & all that SHTF right before IMVE was announced which the distro was accused of knowing before he put his IM up for sale.
Sorta like insider trading & misrepresentation of a bond rating but with pinball... Pinsider trading lol
Swore it was CT & BR but what do I know?
I just put in an order with CT tho
That was the Cointaker/B_R thread above. Cointaker didn't claim it was HUO, just that it was one-owner and mint. Then B_R outed it as a game on route. Lots of corn was popped that night on pinside.
