I agree....People think they have to make money on every machine they sell or at least get out what they have in them. I laugh when I see "I've got $5100 into this machine, so I'd like to get at least that out of it." It doesn't irk that way people! I LOVE the fact that there are more machines out there now and prices are going DOWN! I own a MM and I don't care that it may be worth $2K someday and I've got $7200 into it....not to mention that I have almost 10K into it from stocking parts up that I will use when I fully restore it......Oh, but if I ever sell it, I have to at least get 10K out of it since that's what I'll have in it! haha!!! WHATEVER!!
Hell, if this pin has $500 in mods, then take them off, drop the price another $500 and sell the mods to someone who wants them. A $3700 IM, now we are talking!

Good Luck with the sale though!
