Quoted from delt31:Dealer just offered me a CE at 25k. No joke.
Wow
Willing to name them?
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:I don’t pay tax on my pins or from pinball life or Marco’s. So your not 100% correct. Maybe on what your selling.
I believe you are still liable for the sales tax, regardless of whether the selling company collects it from you or not.
That feeling when you gear yourself up to spend a lot of money on something, then it falls through but you still feel like you gatta spend it...
Not sure what other distributors have been quoting, but I was quoted $16,500 for a CE, so after tax that is $18,150. I had to decline. Bananas.
Quoted from naf_llabnip:FYI - I got an email from Jason at Classic Gamerooms (GREAT distributor, sold me my Wonka) and they are sold out of CEs (LEs available). I agree with everyone that is questioning the value at the $15K price, but apparently the market is speaking a different story than I would have expected. For folks buying the game: more power to you ... if you and your loved ones will enjoy it and can afford it, good for you!
No CEs have sold yet. Only the deposits. Payment won't be due until September at the absolute earliest. Plenty of time for flippers to flip without having to pay in full, to back out, or to transfer their deposits to a different game. We have no idea how many of those at dealers have even received deposits yet, and how many of those people intend on playing the game rather than put it in a storage locker and sell it later. To suggest otherwise is incorrect or dishonest.
Quoted from flynnibus:Ok, would saying 'all CEs are spoken for' satisfy your need to split hairs over this?
Everyone understands the point about deposits vs paid invoices - it doesn't change the availability topic for the title or that JJP has the buyers lined up.
This argument is splitting hairs to try to defend some tiny ground that is meaningless.
Your hairs must be the size of 2x4s if what I’m saying counts as splitting them. My quoted price from my dealer was 16.5k plus tax, so $18,150. I declined, but am still open to the CE or LE once I get some time on it. My point is that in a potentially large speculative market all the CEs being spoken for (which we still don’t know is true) may not equate to them all being sold upon launch. Then if they are sold, at what price and to whom.
Splitting hairs would be my opinion that I prefer callouts from a single narrator rather than 3, even though I like all 3 individually in this case.
