    Quoted from CFoote:

    If you need to move it for financial reasons than I wish you the best and hope you get your asking price. I started this hobby back in the early 90s; I was on RGP when it first started and paid $1400 for my TZ and $4500 for a MM....I realize everything goes up in price but the inflation in this hobby has, unfortunately, been unreal!
    I really do wish you the best in your sale, I just hate seeing folks who 'flip' games in any hobby. I certainly understand 'stuff' happens in life and sometimes hobbies have to come second. I also realize business is business but to me the flipping almost takes the fun out of the hobby.
    In the end, its not anyone's business what you do with your assets... but yes, we're all very passionate and vocal in this hobby, it's always been that way
    Sorry for derailing your thread. Best wishes.

    Is it flipping if you find, get, and sell a 2.5k MM and already have one? I don't know too many guys that would pass down a cheap MM to sell for a profit if they didn't want it...

    I'd be selling mine now too for whatever I could get. I would also buy one down the road, I wouldn't want to get bored of the shots before the code was finished.......

    Quoted from CFoote:

    That is a scenario that probably rarely happens -- finding a really cheap desirable game and already having one. So to answer your question, no, I wouldn't buy it, I would not need or want another one. I'd probably post here and let someone else have at it.
    Not everyone is a money hungry hobbyist...

    Hope you were not refering to me with your last comment!

    I think 99.9% of people here would jump all over a MM for 2.5k. So you call all of us money hungry?? And if you didn't jump on it I would question ah nevermind you wont understand anyway.

    Its a hobby for some here its a job for others. I bet there is a high percentage of people here that are restorers, operators, etc.

    If my car was worth 10k as a fair price but only paid 5 for it from a friend or family member your rationale says to sell it for 5k and throw away 5k. Not too smart in my book. I have never been money hungry but sell what I sell no matter what it is for a fair price...

    Way above average pins I have sold in the last two years such as JP for 1500, HUO IJ4 for 3900, WH20 for 2300, and a few more. If I find something for a way low price that I can make a buck or two on with or without work I'll do it no matter if its a lawn mower, snow blower, pin, video, juke or whatever. My hard work over the years in building my own house and being able to fix just about anything gas goes into or plugs in does make me a few extra bucks here and there. Pays for daughters gymnastics, sons baseball and karate, heck selling one pin paid for our pool passes this year. I help my friends out as best I can but having the knowledge to be able to fix correctly a pin and make a few bucks doesn't make me or anyone else a money hungry hobbiest!

    Guy at work says I have this pin I just want out of my house its a MM and all I want is 2500.

    Nah I already have one go find someone else that wants it....
