Quoted from TreyBo69:I think my favorite part of this are the people who don't buy new Sterns saying that Stern is taking their profits from their pocket
I own a $tern. Paid $3650 brand new. It does 10 times what this machine does. Today, same machine on secondary market $5000-$6000.
I’m telling the young ones, “this is not the pinball machines you are looking for” and that if you want Bond, getting him on a wand is a way better spend of your money, for both fun and profit, because if I was a dealer/distributor, I would buy one just to have on my showroom floor to sell,
just so customers would feel good about their purchase of any other pinball machine I am selling that has been made since 1990.
And for those who can not understand the “writing on the wall” concepts being embraced in this offering are just blind to real world economics of “less for more” because that has always worked out in the consumers interest, right? I’m a consumer. I buy $terns. I get to bitch.
