Quoted from Reality_Studio:Where I live it's reality as James Bond Pro (and other Pro models) are $7k. But my point ultimately was if a game comes out that someone loves and it's in their price range, they will buy it regardless of how slighted they may feel right now.
There's always someone who's "done" until something gets announced and it's a dream theme.

I'm not an economist, I don't play one on TV, I have no idea what's going to happen to the market. But it seems to me things are healthier for the hobby in general if machines lose value when used. Even if that only means your $10k pin is worth $9500 once you decide to move it. Doug has the right idea, you should buy, enjoy it, and if you sell it for a loss that's fine, the enjoyment was the value.
These things are supposed to be fun.
Trying to predict the the future value of this game though, let alone the whole market, strikes me as pointless.
