All of this speculation on price doesn't matter if the other rumor is true - distributors are telling customers the 2019 run is almost already sold out. I agree MMr would be a steal at current pricing, it's so good imo. They won't though, they already sold this run at $8000 and it would anger existing customers

Throw up a poll if you want to check. I can only speak for myself and I know it would make me mad if they dropped the price. It would make me wait in the future because now I expect they'll just drop the price.

And as for by thinking of pins as an investment, I think this hobby would die if pins stopped holding their value. So many people justify this hobby by knowing they can get most of their money back when selling. If that stopped being true, I suspect most people would be very hesitant to buy a game

I don't buy $8000 games because I couldn't stomach losing 20% if I ever need to sell. Not that I agree with your 20% number. If that were true huo MMR would be selling for $6400. MMR and a game like potc may be the exception rather than the standard, those just happen to be two games I want in my collection.

I'll stick to used games and keep counting on games holding their value. If that stops, my purchases slow way down.

Back to the point of this thread though, my money is on the same price since they're not having trouble selling them right now at that price and it WOULD anger some of their current owners, whether you think they are justified in that isn't my concern
