Quoted from ralphs007:Yeah but there's probably a lot of them that can afford to just call a technician to fix there game.

Quoted from youdontknowme:did machines level off in 2008, 2009? there wasn't any crazy increase, but you still had your "make a buck" guys that ran around,
snagged up the craigslist deals, just to windex them and flip them on the same site.
i've been waiting for this bubble to pop since the 2010s. i have a bad feeling i'll be waiting a long time with what people
pay for now: site unseen, game unplayed, and all that. limited rush powdercoat: black. wow. thanks. but the flipping
of limited titles will do nothing but cause st3rn/JJP/spooky to constantly increase the MSRP.
when dealers have to pay 20% over cost to buy a jurassic park in today's market, you know there's a bigger problem.
Pinball is still becoming more and more popular. Manufacturers can't keep up with demand = High prices!
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Yeah so far the only "bubble" bursting is the "sell my used pro for more than I paid for it after 6 months" bubble, which is disappointing and probably not what the OP had in mind when he started this thread 12 years ago.
12 Years ago, I believe there was only one flavor, no Pro, Premium, or LE.
