    Quoted from ejacques:

    Yikes what? I buy games at a price that makes sense to me at the time, I play them for a while and then I sell them, usually below what the pinside average is. If the market dictates that that price has risen since I bought it, what is the problem with that?
    Should I sell my Twilight zone for $800 just because that's what I paid for I back in 1999?

    If you want to be my hero, and get exhibitor passes for you and guest as well as lodging for any 5 Texas Pinball Festivals over the next 10 years, then the answer is yes, sell me your TZ for $800. Only me though!

    P.S. Serious answer to your question, "Of course not. Sell it for market price."
