Sadly I think it's all relative, a rising tide lifts all ships. Even the underrated games are at peak pricing for underrated titles. I actually think the competition is worse these days on pins in this genre. I don't think peoples budgets have risen as fast as pricing more and more people are priced out of the newer stuff and jumping on the hidden gems.
Quoted from MtnFrost:Pins in the solid state genre? If pricing has risen faster than budgets, then there would or should be a crash coming? Do you think this? I'm curious. If not, then what is propping up the market?
I remember when nobody could get rid of a WW, it was unknown. It seems that now we have to look at pins that are 1) ugly, 2) have horrible themes, 3) or are now worth a second look because their faults aren't so bad for the price.....
I do not foresee a crash more just a shift in the the demographic. There appear to be plenty of people in the hobby willing to spend top dollar. It will just harder to find pins for the lower and middle class of pinheads. I used to hunt for the good deal DMDs, your DE and Sega a few others that are just not popular. I know all I look for these days are SS era. My price point is exactly the same but the pins have shifted. Good deal DMDs cost what used Sterns went for, now used Sterns go for purchase price plus some of the tax, SS are going for what the good deal DMDs used to be or even more.
Quoted from finman2000:I agree. I can't believe this game hasn't moved up in price.
I think the designer might be the reason it’s not as desirable these days.
Quoted from skink91:$9500?! Obviously paid by someone who has never actually played one before.
Probably be $12,000 before you get it home.
