Just picked up a very nice JD.
RZ is coming in a few months. It's the first and last NIB for me.
Then I'm done, collection is effectively finished. I'll have some A-list, some B/C list, and one boutique.
It's been a good run of recent acquisitions and I hope I get lucky and can keep them all and avoid any economic or health related disasters.
No more new or used games until this house of cards crashes and brings prices back down to Earth.
The grail was MB, but I no longer have any hope that an MBR announcement will do any correcting on original MB prices. They are out of reach now and will likely just get worse. I briefly thought about trying to build one from parts, but seeing a Frank assembly listed on Ebay for a thousand bucks killed my enthusiasm.
I believe PPS will crank up the AFMR price based on the recent selling out of ridiculously priced new releases.
I had hope for PPS, but not anymore.
So wallet closed.
Maybe buy a few choice mods, but planning on stocking some spare parts, ramps, plastics, anything that will become hard to get.
If/when the backlash against these new sky-high prices gets traction, some component manufacturers and retailers may go belly-up.
