Me too. I about fell out of my chair, which would have been super embarrassing because I also shat myself with excitement at that precise moment.
Quoted from vicjw66:$6350 and you're taking a loss? Ouch.
You must have no clue how much Xmen LE went for at release.

I had pricing of around $6200 NIB when it was first released if I remember right.

I didn't think they sold for more then $6350 but I guess it depends on which distributor you bought it from. Anyway, what was originally paid is immaterial.
Quoted from ElectricCircuit:NIB X-Men Magneto #40 Limited Editon $6350 firm. Got it in trade while back and am taking a loss.
Nearly all owners took a loss on this title. You win some and you lose some. My buddy struggled to get 5K for his HUO Wolverine with under 50 plays. Maybe try ebay with the holidays coming up.
Yes, unfortunately due to the really rough first year of code, XM has taken a huge hit. The LEs that have sold on here over the past few months have gone for between $5k-5.8k, the higher end of that being machines with tons of lighting and sound mods that have also been dialed in with ramp and wolverine adjustments. XM is one machine where NIB is extremely undesirable for over $5.2k, because a NIB still has to be adjusted right out of the box (Storm ramp and Wolvie).
My advise as an XMLE wolverine owner? You'll have to wait probably a couple years for the value to raise on it, because >if< the code gets finished this title will raise in price, otherwise if you want to sell it now in the current pinside market, you'll have to lower your price into the low 5k range. Yes, it sucks to lose your shirt on a NIB title, but XM and Avengers both suffer from this.
By the way; I feel that XM is HIGHLY underrated, and has been brought down and continues to be brought down by those that still have a sour taste in their mouth from the loss they took selling theirs with bad code issues within that first year. LEs SHOULD be worth at least 6k now, but are they? Nope. I am confident that time will be kind to this title and the price will raise in a few years as more players revisit it with the new code. A very unique game code-wise.
GLWS, I hope you get what you want for it, but Pinside might not be the place to sell it. As stated, try EBAY.
