Quoted from Aurich:I won't pay $9k for a pin. Any pin, from anyone. I was really excited about TBL, but it's just too much money. I can justify $6k, with wiggle room to creep towards $7k. But that's really pushing it. They're just games, there's only so much money I can feel right about spending on one.
I know JJP has fans that are happy to pay that, but I do wish they had a lower entry point. What's the standard Hobbit going for now? It's $8k right? Is that what people are really paying distributors? If you don't pre-order (never going to do that) what's the street price like?
Sterns are up there too for the full pull Aurich. The thing is, and I have both, there is no denying (no matter how many stern lovers are out there) Woz and what seems to be on Hobbit is just far superior in the build quality. I'm not saying which is more fun hell I like Sopranos for shits and giggles however there will always be a market for "Mercedes Benz" no matter how boring the model may be. If these are out of your price range then I get it theres plenty of cheaper ones that will still get you from A to B

Its not the case it is 7500 if lucky, and they were in from the beginning. Like I said everyone has a limit what they are willing to pay for fun. Perfect analogy is the Auto industry. I choose a Bentley over a Honda. Does the Bentley get me there any quicker.....depends. Some would argue a good old V 12 will obviously get you there faster however not when you have to stop at every other Gas station on the way!
