Quoted from DruTheFu:Thanks for the responses!
I didn't want to ask the question to be judgmental to anyone's situation or reasons. I just don't want to be caught on some sinking ship, blinded by its beauty, and be too late to the rescue boat.
I'm a big fan of the show (from before it was a pin), and I've tried to watch minimal streams to leave some mystery (my best mate and a fellow pinhead watches though, and tells me to get my paper towels and rags ready). Reading these threads, some people love the game, but then there are those that are pretty "meh" about it, and seeing the marketplace activity, I hate to admit to wondering if this is a $8,500+ pin I need to get out on while it still has some steam and put towards another future title.
Damnit to second guessing myself, go with my gut and initial choice!
If people are bailing because they are afraid of getting stuck with a terd do you honestly think they would be flocking to this thread to tell potential buyers that is why they're selling? I can't imagine you'd get people to be that honest. Short of the reason of genuine personal cash flow issues I don't see this as any more than people liking money more than they like the game, I don't think it is any more complex than that.
