So, some things get left out when up til 0300. Let me try again.
I value a base TS at around $3K. With ColorDMD at about $3350 (it's installed, it's been used, it's not a ColorDMD in a box waiting for me to install - it doesn't automatically retain its full value at $400).
My judgment as I type my retort didn't include all the extras (which to me aren't that big a deal - mirror blades and toppers dont do shit for me unless they're factory - JP, TAF, WH2O, etc.). Aurich's art package is a plus, and of course the ColorDMD - but at $3800? Nope.
The extras don't mean anything when the PF looks crap, and it does. Outlanes have what appear to be scratches in the artwork, Sanctum looks like the ball had a small case of diarrhea, insert art is cracking - especially the modes.
You know what the topper, Aurich's art package and ColorDMD says?
"Please - keep your eyes up here - don't look at all the imperfections where your eyes will be nearly 94% of the time."
All being said, come on market - prove me wrong.
I'm not one to shy away from paying for a nice TS. Cause guess what I bought for about $450 more? This:

Sure, cabinet is dinged up, but that PF sure as hell ain't.
