Quoted from CrazyLevi:

You are trying to sell a Time Warp - one of the worst and least desirable or sought-after pinball machines of all time - with heavy playfield wear and display and other "minor issues" for $1,100. That's why it's getting no attention, not because the bubble is bursting. Your friend on Facebook is experiencing the same issue. The market for Time Warps has never been "hard," therefore, it cannot "soften."
Price that game appropriately - $600 obo - and you might notice an uptick in action on your ad.
As far as the rest of the market...it's always best to wait before making "bubble burst" proclamations:

Beat me to it ha.

Quoted from JakeFAttie:

I said not much action and he replied that I must be aware that the market is softening again. Is it?

Prices keep going up and people keep paying them. You have people plopping down 13K on Bond LEs and in the same breath complaining there is no code yet and how the release has been a mess. People are lining up to buy an Elwin Bond they haven't seen yet for $20K+. The "market value" of most of my games is up 50%+ since I got them. Not exactly what I would call "softening".
