It takes a special buyer at 5k to justify paying 2k more for one with no wear though. This isn't something that would be a fast sell and the higher it puts it the longer it sits. I had 3k in my last one. Fun enough game, but such a shallow ruleset.

There is no value in obtuse statements with nothing to back it up. Besides you are biased considering you are the one who posted this.

The game is no longer NIB. The premium that comes with opening the box is gone. It is a low play HUO NGG. It isn't an MM, AFM, or CC ie something either incredibly rare or top 10.

Its from a time when huo williams are much more common. Show me a Banzai Run you just pulled out of a box or is certifiably huo and then you will really have something.

And you are getting them most seem to think 5k maybe 6. Its a hou ngg. Nothing special about it since you took it out of the box.

That is a mentality that some in the hobby hold. Ohhhh TAF, so hard to find and yet one of the most often seen in someone's collection and several for sale every month. Gofer's isn't particularly hard to get. It is not *rare*. If you have a handful of collectors in your area chances are that half of them half TAF. LOTR? Great game, and always hear how hard it is to find one, yet I got rid of mine because there are 5-6 people around me with it. Rare is when you never see the machine. Jolly Park is rare. Mystery Castle is rare. NGG is not nor has it ever been, rare.

Also, what is your point with Banzai Run? It sells for more than gofers even at a lower rating, because there are less out there to buy. Supply and demand.

10 plays on a NGG. Still not as nice as a hep NGG.

It is still 20 years old and still has aged. It is still a reflection of williams quality at the time. It is not some magically sealed time capsule and in some respects is not that different than other low huo machines that have been stored well.

I wish I could afford a soap box to stand on, but according to some on here I am just too cheap to afford it. Guess I better go pay 1300 for unshopped broken 6803 Ballys to regain my standing in the pantheon of price pumpers.
