TRON: Legacy (LE)
Stern, 2011Quoted from Goronic:Seems like TRON LE threads bring out the worst in everyone. Any other pin cause this much division on Pinside?
Seriously? Read any early woz threads, and the cast of characters, including owners and volunteers?
Tron le threads? Lame. Not even close.

Quoted from Max_Badazz:Buy my overpriced DE Star Wars with autographed backglass thread
Nope! That one brought the best of Pinside!!
Quoted from shlockdoc:How about a Jersey bro 7500 special bro you can really stick to those negative nellies
Leave me out of it. I love Jersey. And I grew up in Huntington Beach!

What is wrong with New Jersey?
I have never been there. I just looked at a bunch of pics of the state online. It looks to have very nice beaches and beautiful neighborhoods. I wouldn't mind living there. It looks like it has a lot to offer. However, I will likely never leave NH. It is very difficult to get used to paying sales tax and income tax both of which I avoid by living in this state.

I guess your state runs on free labor and support then? Just because you don't see it, doesn't mean that they're not taxing you in other ways to make up for it.

hmm... other than the toxic waste, traffic, mysterious road signs, and general "jerseyness", not much... 
i was born and raised in nh (lived in me for some of those years as well, plus 1 in fl and 1 in ca)... i've lived in southern nj for about 25 some odd years now, and until i either win the powerball or retire, i'm not going anywhere... once you learn to live with the above "problems", the positives far outweigh the negatives... 
You are right. Our property taxes are quite high. So if you make a high income and live in a modest home you are way ahead of the game. That is what I choose to do.
State services are not the greatest here in NH. If you need services then people move to the People's Republic of Vermont or Mass.

Well I am sure every state has it bad parts. What I saw of NJ looked very nice. I like the proximity to the ocean and the city. I sort of have that here in NH. I am 90 minutes from Boston and 60 minutes from the ocean. Not bad.

yup, i lived for quite some time in auburn... close enough to "stuff"...
yes, as noted in an earlier post, i can be in downtown philly in 15 mins, the middle of the woods in 30 mins, and at the shore (or in the mountains, ftm) in 60 mins... on top of that, there are very few places that are better to live if you are a birder...
btw, bump for the sale...
Yeah, I have been to Philly and its suburbs. Very nice. I really like it down there. My job and family keeps me in NH for now. I am starting to get sick of all the snow and cold. We are expecting another 12 inches tonight on top of the 3 -4 feet already in my yard.
Quoted from yzfguy:speaking of tron...let's go rangers!
Rangers suck. Discuss.
And keep bumping my friend's fs thread. 
Keep the offers coming. Sorry guys I really can't do less than $11,000. SEPins, who has only other I know of these days, admits it's probably an $11,500 machine. When I wrote $15,000 OBRO I was really just trying to get offers around/north of $11,000. If it doesn't sell, No biggie. The gold Panerai will just have to wait. I can buy it cash either way but makes more sense for me to me sell this to fund around 1/2 of it. Also would keep the wife happy as she hates to look at the box. Have a great day.
Quoted from Saveleaningtower:Also would keep the wife happy as she hates to look at the box.
I love to look at the box. 
Quoted from Saveleaningtower:Bro! You should buy this this! You get the biggest discount of all.
A five finger discount? Cause that's the only one I can afford right now.
Quoted from metallik:$6K to tell the time? Yea it's shiny but so is Tron...
Brother (no offense-I know you are not my brother, just a term of endearment ) , I wish these puppies were 6 grand. I'd have a few. The tron LE is sweet and shinny but I'd rather have the watch, they are cool too, than an extra tron sitting in a box.
Quoted from LitzDoc:Watches are amazing I have a few of them across many brands like VC,PP,IWC,Paneri. It's wearable art at its best. GLWS I completely understand where you are coming from.
Man awesome collection!
Quoted from metallik:Ah ok, read the "1/2" comment the opposite way. So $23K to tell the time.. even bigger waste of money, but whatever floats your boat. The Tron has a better ruleset
That's the best part of it, it really is all about whatever floats your boat. I do agree the tron has a better rule set.

Bummer. Should hit 77 in Dallas today. Winter comes and goes here. Cold again Monday. This past week was a miracle of nice weather.
Quoted from metallik:I looked up that brand; it looks like those ultracomplicated models might have 'rulesets' equivalent to Tron
That is true. That PP is a mechanical marvel!
Quoted from Saveleaningtower:That is true. That PP is a mechanical marvel!
if it was sitting in front of me, it would have to be repaired after i finished drooling on it... that is one fine timepiece...
Why for $990,000 do I only get a two year warranty on this new watch. Can I buy an extended warranty for my investment? Also, if it has an issue do I put it in the mail or do they fly out to me or what? There are important questions I need answered before purchasing.

So another guy with a NIB "admits" that the value is probably more than your settle price? LOL.
Someday we'll know, right? But there's nothing on this green earth to guarantee this game will ever sell for more than $11k. Or $15k or $9k. The market may have passed this by a bit, or not. Let us know! All of Pinside is curious.
The good news for the op is that while us peons who can't afford the pin whine, we do give it free bumps for the potential buyer. If I had money and just entered this hobby, I don't think I'd have a problem buying this pin for 11k,12k or even 15k. There seems to be only a couple of these NIB TronLE's left.

They ship these time pieces via FedEx overnight with third party insurance coverage. The watch is usually triple boxed. Someone over 21 years old must be available to sign for it. They also never put the name of the jewelery company on the box just the initials to prevent attention drawn to it. It has worked well for me over the years. Now whether they will insure for $990,000 is a different matter; $125,000 no problem.
