I never can figure out the price police. Who cares what the guy asks. The market is always right! Again the market it always right! If he sells it, someone wanted it. If he does not sell it he will have to lower until he does. Contrary to others I have seen this pin sell for $8500 if in perfect shape. A really great hou standard now can sell for over $6,000. Yes you can still find for under but it is hard. It is a stern top game. The non top games drop like bricks as the market is always right. People think these are investment which cracks me up. They are games and it is a hobby. Supply and demand. Yes they do go down and up in a Bubble. Tron LE sells way north of $10,000 and so does Cactus Canyon. While Lotr LE has not it is one of 500 which may some day. A TZ sold locally for $8900. I thought nuts! The guy who bought it as his first pin and wanted a HOU one as it was pin he played when in college. The seller sold on Craigslist in less than 24hrs. I think it is crazy but the buyer and seller were happy. The free market always wins. The price police cracks me up as when they sell they try to get the most but when they buy they want least. They love to call people trolls when in fact they are. While, that is good business it is not always reality.

Quoted from jalpert:

People Are trying to get $1,200 for $1,000 games all day long on here, but if you mark up a LOTR 20% it's insane. The same people trying to get $2,400 for their $2,000 games are bashing this guy for trying to get $10,000 for this game that is marked up about the same percentage.
It's Pinside, 20% above value is asked for games all day every day. So what's so wrong with this guy? It's just a bullshit pile on.

Well said and exactly my point. That said some games on pinside are lower than the local market. Supply and demand based on your area.

Quoted from YeOldPinPlayer:

Your example is only one of the free market winning if the buyer was aware that they were over paying for that TZ. Otherwise it's an example of the seller capitalizing on the buyer's ignorance.
Helping buyers make informed decisions is exactly what responsible friendly pinheads do. A new buyer is more likely to be ignorant of market conditions and potentially get screwed by someone.

Nope he new the price as was a pinside member but wanted the best was his point. I would not have paid that price but he was happy too.
