Hey guys. I've been having an impossible time making up my mind. My beautiful LOTR LE has been out of my place since November. It's been fixed and has a new color DMD installed. I have to decide whether to keep her or list her for sale tonight. I've been wavering on this for way too long. I was gonna sell to use that money as part of my car down payment. But I dont "need" it. Just don't want to go into my other savings. I'm not worried about a VE as the LE will always have the double coated playfield and hair dick!

My Lotr is worth the same as my fix it felix. I never play the felix but the rarity and ability to replace felix is much harder. What would you do?

Car is a Challenger Hellcat, so there's that.

Felix just sold on eBay with shipping for over 7k. They also just announced wreck it Ralph 2. When it comes to collectible and rarity, felix can't be beat. Yes game isn't as much fun as pin.

PIxels is gonna suck! Adam Sandler is so washed up. Wreck it Ralph is amazing!

Quoted from beelzeboob:

Sell it. Get drunk. PayPal me the money.
Beelzeboob has spoken.

Half way drunk.

Quoted from Sarge:

Dont you still owe Pinballsmith for the FFJr?
Sell them both, find a different hobby...

Really? U want to be the one guy who brings this shit up? We settled our dispute two years ago! You must be a KLOV mofo

Quoted from Grinder901:

My question is, why has it been out of your place since November? Like 8 months ago? That seems like a crazy amount of time for a colordmd swap and to fix whatever problem it was having.
It's been gone for 8 months, you haven't played it or missed it enough to bring it back, I think you may like the idea of pinball and the social aspect of it more than actually owning/fixing/modding/playing one.
If you had several pins and one wasn't getting attention for a few months, ok no big deal. But to only have one game and for it not to be with you for this long.....
Just sell it man and enjoy the new toy (car).
Or hell, keep both games and dip into savings for the Dodge. You only live once!

Well it was suppose to be fixed quickly and then we had some issues and had to send it out to someone else to fix. Once the new guy got it it was fixed right away. It's been done for about 2 months. That was when I ordered the hellcat. I do miss it but I also live 5 minutes from modern pinball. So I can get my pinball itch scratched without needing to own a pin. But that being said this pin is amazing and I really wanted to brass her out and keep her.

Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to visit her today, get her all set up, play her and then make up my mind. I think it's easier to sell when I haven't seen her in months. If I do sell price will be fair and she's got lots of nice mods and is just about mint.

Quoted from Taygeta:

I am all for whatever option gets your obnoxious ass off the forum. So yes, sell your LOTR.

Really? Did I ever do anything to you?

So I've decided to keep her and get the hellcat. Just saw her and love that pin so much. I'm not sure ford will make a gt500 this time around. The gt350r costs more than a hellcat. A monster gt500 would probably cost $75,000.

No had a 2010 GT500. Hated the love rear axle. Nobody knows anything about the next gt500. Hellcat is coming home.

Quoted from TOK:

If you didn't already order, I think you're way ahead of yourself. Orders were stopped in March because they're all sold and dealers were gouging for existing inventory. Unless something has changed drastically, you *might* be able to order in a August/September and be lucky to have the car by Summer 2016.

I've got my vin and build date. Lucky for me everyone wants automatic and only manuals are being built. You don't get an automatic muscle car.

Kaneda- you finally did it! I am nearly certain that this was the first post by you I agree with!

Quoted from Sarge:

Did you just call me a mother fucker? cause im pretty sure personal attacks are frowned upon on Pinside.
No I havent been on KLOV since your LOOK AT ME BULLSHIT ruined that site as well.

Hahaha. So I ruined KLOV for you and now pinside? I'd recommend getting over your issues or pm'ing me if you want to talk. You entered a thread I started and brought up a negative time from the past thst has been settled for over a year. Time to get over it. I'm not the same asshole defending my mame pedestal on KLOV.
