Like others said, Shadow is the more desirable game. I just picked one up this summer and love it. There is a variety of ways to play the game and very challenging. The diverters make gameplay a ton of fun. I love just playing vengeance modes and hitting ramps. Artwork, callouts, dots, and humor are very good. WCS is more friendly to non players but still a pretty good game. Just doesn't grab me like Shadow.

Quoted from Albanylifer:

One of the parts I asked before that no one answered, is one of these more reliable than the other?In reading up on the Shadow, some people say it's mechanically complicated, should that be a concern? Is the parts situation better for either? Gameplay aside, are there other factors I should be thinking about in my decision?

I don't think either is that complicated. Shadow is pretty easy to work on for me so far. The upper playfield lifts up and you have easy access to entire playfield. Condition is really important. If things are not working right or parts are missing that would be a big concern at any price on any game.
