Quoted from Cobray:Yep, I'm going to say it. Has a Stern Pinball machine EVER commanded $20K? NOPE. NEVER.
Meanwhile, JJP has POTC and GNR-CE. No Stern has ever been in this much demand...
Sure this is meant to be sarcastic in a way, but YOU KNOW IT'S true. The best games with the highest demand bring the biggest pile of cash.
This is funny. They're influencing the market by holding back production, so they're the best.
Nobody has outlined this in visual terms.

Quoted from TechnicalSteam:I do not like JJP machines. Love the design but not the play. 20k for a pinball machine is just stupid.
This is exactly how I feel.
Either I don't like the theme (WOZ, Wonka) or I don't like the play (Hobbit) or both (Dialed In).
This biggest issue is I didn't trade me DI for POTC so I could flip now.
Quoted from HarryReimer:Be it politics, cars, sports why must we always be pitted against a side. In politics I understand the necessity for taking sides as a decision in politics can directly affect your life. In pinball, it's all fun. Think JJP is overpriced? don't buy it. Think Stern is the better value? buy it. Why is there a need to prove your decision is correct?. These are toys. I love them all. Will I buy them all? no. But I still love playing them.
Competition is a good argument. Some people buy rare pinball machines (Magic Girl) to show that you have the means to purchase a game and can show it off. NOT because it plays great. We are competitive in nature. Humans are born screaming for attention. Enjoy your Stern, Spooky, JJP, CGC they are all a blast.
We all seek different things in pinball machines, some like flow, some like stop and go, for some people artwork is very important, some code. It's great that there is something for everyone. Arguably, people take sides out of disappointment, Led Zeppelin pro has nothing in it, GNR has too many multiballs.. not everything is for everyone.
Sorry, I'll go back to my cave.
Sites like Pinside thrive on opinions. Without various opinions, it wouldn't exist. 95% of the posts are opinions.
The tone you use and where you post them is up to the poster. That's a difference.
