Quoted from Boat:
No, got my first last month and bk3 is looking tempting. Nothing interested me that much to pull the trigger In the past. I was lucky with maiden for tweaking but generally I realized I was tinkering, cleaning, and modding my games more than playing them. Maiden has been a blast.

Whenever a vet gets "NIB fatigue" seems like there's always one to take his place. PLenty of new people continue to get in the hobby, and the bubble continues to not burst after almost 20 years.

That's one resilient bubble!

Quoted from Hazoff:
When I first started collecting it was all about quantity and having those certain must have pins, then it changed to 80's stuff then NIB Sterns 10 to 15 pins on average. .

When I started collecting it was whatever was cheap and looked good. This resulted in a lot of ebay impulse buys and 6 hour drives to pick up ratty $200 Funfests. I see this happen with lots of new collectors, regardless of what kind of game they are buying and their budget.

Once you've been at it a while you tend to get more selective.
