Quoted from mbrave77:New wonkas LEs from latest run are 11500(i know I just bought one). GnR new is 11k right now right? So Im assuming they push the envelope to 12,500 for LE and 15k for CE.
unless that includes shipping, Wonka and GnR LE are MSRP at $11,000. That doesn't mean some distributors are not charging more (we are not one of them), but $11,500 is NOT the MSRP.
Only JJP knows what the next game will cost. Everyone else is just speculating.
As for the warranty and customer serivce issues, while I think Llyod did a good job, that is no longer an option. If you want great customer support, then support a distributor that offers you that. If your current distributor (or manufacturer) can not advise you on how to fix your game, or get you the parts you need to fix your game, then you need to find a better source for your game purchases. Go through the lists on the JJP site and start making calls.
