Quoted from brundaged:Look at the smaller manufacturers out there, and the lower-cost options. Heighway's swappable system, for example. That's the new low end.
Don't forget Spooky. The Domino's machine is priced at $5200. That's a bargain. Its not as feature rich as the new JJP machine, but its a fun good looking machine and packed with value at that price.
