Looks nice. I would have bought this a month ago, but ended up getting a Pro in another deal. GLWS

This game looks and plays great. Gonna try and promote it on some other pin sites. Lots of nice upgrades

Such a killer bargain so much game for the price

What trades are you looking for

I can't believe you don't find a buyer at this price. A LE for $5k? I wish I were closer!
X-men is a good game. Can't go wrong with that one. Especially at current NIB LE prices...

Nice, what did you grab LOTR or WOZ?

Dang that's a great price and game, bump!

I sold my X-Men LE Magneto in 2013 for $5K.

$5k is a great deal on a great pin. If I didn't already have one, I'd get this one and ship it. Even having one, I'm tempted. GLWS...someone is getting a stellar game!

We just got one it is a fun pin bump.

Any chance you're coming to Expo? I would take it off your hands if so.

We can get this game to York if anyone is interested. Great Deal!

Nice GC score by the way. Game looks great. My XM is bolted to the floor here.

SOP if interested . IT a true HUO and perfect in every way. Looks like it just came out if the box . Full C/T premium LEDs , red cab protectors , white rubber, mirror glazed balls, all manuals still stapled in, red super bands, and NV Ram installed.

I like XMEN-LE WAY more than GBLE. Hang in there you will find a sensible pinhead to buy your game. Definately one of Borgs best games.

So you won't trade for my same condition Magneto LE and give me $500 also huh? :wink

No brainer of a safe price. Much better than a Pro NIB for sure. Premiums don't even have painted armor anymore.

When it comes time to sell, everyone thinks their machines are worth high end of their range, and your machine is worth low end of its range. I dealt with a lot of those offers when my XMLE was recently up for sale.

Hang it there. It's definitely worth $5K w/o color DMD and shaker motor. The pin selling season is a month or so out yet.

People do this crap all the time to me. For example, someone wanted to trade for my HUO Monopoly and valued their routed Maverick at $2700 (but It had LEDs) He was going to kick in $200. I politely declined. Sheesh.

I also like the "if it doesn't sell and you want to move, I'll offer you 60% of your asking price. And I'll pay in cash"... Wow, you will pay in cash!

I am sure you are getting all kinds of nickel and dime offers. Good luck.

This machine is priced to move and someone will get an excellent value. If I didn't have a magneto years ago, I would be all over this.

I remember it well. It was sold by a local Baltimore guy too. I too was out of cash.

Some the offers ive been getting for my luci are hilarious to say the least. I state im only looking for 3 particular pins but get tons of other offers instead but the best yet was the ngg and 1500 cash ....lol but thats not even in the same ballpark considering that been offered nib hobbit se , addams gold, mb, ss, and tons of other great offers. But i guess some people think a ngg is worth 7500 lol. Glws phil

depreciation isn't a one-time thing. You're asking $5000+ for a game you paid what.. $6500(??) new. The title has to compete with other games released both before AND after.. and that hurts xmen... no matter how great of condition it is. So if people are buying new or HUO games of much more desirable titles (MET, ST, TWD, etc), even if pro and not LE, you have serious price competition at a significantly lower price point ($4000-4500). Yes, new GB is $5100 but there is still a lot of action for near new games sub $4500. That's your competition.

The idea of buying a xmen and it's going to appreciate is long dead. No one is going to buy the title on speculation alone. They have to buy the game because they want xmen and they are lured by LE trim. It's the same for titles like WWE and Avengers.. there is resistance to price drops because of how much people put into games and they see other games holding value.. but ultimately the prices will continue to slide on these games as people are forced to cash out or cut their losses. The HUO games always slide slower and tend to stick in tiers vs free-falls.. but undesirable LE titles sticking at $5500++ years later? I think people are going to take bigger hits than that.

NIB buyers don't want to take big hits... and think all pins retain value... but its still largely driven by desirability and availability.. not thinking they are built-in value.

If the NIB prices for the Pros go well above $5000 I think we will see prices trend a little up for games like XMEN LE because they will be a good alternative to the overpriced and unproven NIB games in that price range.

I agree the average price for a generation of game will creep up .. as the upper prices define the top of the market (as DMD prices across the board keep creeping up as the Stern prices increase).. but less desirable games are still gonna take it in the nuts compared to the rest of the generation. See most of the mid 2000 sterns vs the hits... TF/AV verse the hits..

The 'my games hold 90% of their value or better' model isn't going to be universal.

Another thing I suspect is that certain recent Stern titles that have been their biggest runs will slip in price once some newer titles have success. The demand for recent high production games cannot stay this high unless a lot more new people suddenly come into the hobby. If the number of people in the hobby stagnates then the people that remain will be looking to sell to get newer games since we only have so much room. If you look at Stern's games in the last six years a select group of titles have carried their company and they have had a lot of mediocre and poor sellers in that period.

I also believe the LCD display will negatively affect the demand for DMD games to a small degree once there are 10 or 15 LCD titles that are successful and highly rated. However, if the manufacturers raise the NIB prices for LCD games well above what DMD games have been selling then maybe that will offset the reduced demand for DMD games and they could maintain price.
We also have to factor in this equation the economy. If the economy tanks all prices are likely to go down and the manufacturers will struggle to survive similar to the 2006-2010 Stern.

And XMLE has a real backglass, not a mirror painted translight...makes a huge difference.

I guess no interest in SOP right ?
