Or pay 7k for a NIB?

Who has them for 7k NIB? I believe this machine is sold out and currently out of production? And NIB was $7500.

Is the rumor that if they make these again JJP will be adding another 1k?

The reality is it was probably under priced at $7,500
Which I believe was lower than prior standard model pricing.
Toss in shipping about $300 plus sales tax and being sold out I wish they would make more(wishful thinking)
Lastly looks like market place ads are loaded with wanting to buy Wonka.

Good luck

Best JJP game by a mile. This will sell. Totally.worth it.

Let me know if you sell some of the mods separately.

I can buy one NIB from many distributors today for 7500... used price for a standard is ~6700

Who still has them in stock?

No one does, only CE's left

Would love to see that list and price.

wait a second, wait a second, wait just one second!!!! I'm not sure if you're speculating, or claiming to be a decision maker for JJP. but just to be clear, you're actually trying to tell us that, Wonka will not only be re-run, but also that it will also suffer a price increase in line with their current product. Therefore, you are pricing your pre-owned machine based on this theory, that nobody has any evidence of, but based solely on your belief. I take no issue with someone trying to sell anything for more than they paid, but that explanation takes some serious faith. particularly in you.

bigehrl I believe he said “if they ever get to rerunning it”. I’m guessing he priced it this way due to the halt in production and none are currently available except the CEs.

LOL, there are Stern Toppers going for 2500 bucks, so what if OP added 1k to his purchase price, no other SE's on the market right now...Wonka getting hot.

There isn't a print run listed for this version on Pinside. Looking at the number in pinsider's collections, compared to the CE, I think perhaps there is only 500-600 print run on the SE.

Interesting info here

GLWTS OP

Bill is best friends with Ken Cromwell at JJP- if he’s says they’re probably not making anymore, it’s probably true. I think JJP has moved on to the next titles.

Game will sell at market.

8k+ for a standard by building in an expected price increase? Sure why not but to say that's market is bonkers.

Check recent sales. Very simple.

Not every JJP get to be a JJPOTC !

I can tell you as someone who recently got one that only NIB left are CEs... tried to find a standard but could not.

And yes the price on the game is starting to go up as people realize its the best JJP and they rarely come up for sale.

9K? well not likely but never hurts to try.

The game is catching fire. It’s worthy of the hype. $10k by Xmas! Wouldn’t sell mine for less.

Its an interesting one... a game I hated when it came out and wanted to like.

Borrowed one for a bit and actually learned it and did a 180 and had to get one for myself.

Ive played a fair bit of Pirates and GNR also and Wonka is a miles better shooting game ( I will admit I love most Pat Lawlor layouts tho)

.

Classic game rooms had them when I checked less than a month ago. Maybe they are sold out now- who cares? I also had to pass on a used one with 500 plays for $6500... a month ago. Games sell out and go out of production all the time... it usually doesn’t result in a magical 30% price hike. Hobbit and DI certainly didn’t see that and both of those games had/have bigger markets than wonka. The demand for wonka is what it is. NIB CEe are still avail for 12.5k... but a used standard is 8k plus? Lol... But hey, if you can sell it for that price and someone wants to pay that much... go right ahead, it’s not my business.

Seems like you really care? Must be the guy that was waiting to buy and now found out they are out of stock? Out of production means a lot when people are buying games like crazy these days. Everyone has to have that game everyone else says is the best. No one here buys what they want. They buy what Pinside tells them too! I think is funny to watch these crazy people with bottomless pocketbooks explode the price of a machine. Should have bought the one for 6500 cause you do know that's not going to happen again? These pinsiders will make it reach 10k easy by Xmas.

Side note, I see the machine is sold so the market made the price..

OP do you mind sharing the final sale price?
