    Quoted from isJ:

    I don't care about any of my themes, really. I just like their gameplay.

    Yep, for me a theme just has to "not suck". The gameplay matters far more.

    Quoted from aeneas:

    For most people it doesn't stay with one pin they'll buy another one later, or they can sell the game and buy another one, ..

    I disagree here. I think that most people who buy a pinball machine are expecting to keep it a long time (like a pool table). Most people here on Pinside may do a lot of buying/selling/trading, but we are the exception - not the rule.

    Quoted from TheLaw:

    But that's whom this thread is directed at, so...?

    Well, he said "most people", my point was that "most people" and "most pinsiders" are two very different groups.
    It's a fallacy to look at how often pinsiders buy/sell/trade machines, and then say "see, this is what most people do".
