    Quoted from Rush1169:

    I disagree too with the OP. A good shop job has value. I pay more for well shopped out pins.
    ----------
    I do 'get it' that a subset of buyers would rather buy a pin for $2,000 dirty than pay $2,600 for one that has had the treatment. A subset of those buyers would then want to talk you down to $1,400 because it's dirty.

    Agreed. There's also a subset of buyers who don't know *how* to shop a pin and therefore are willing to pay a little bit of a premium for one that has already been gone through. How do you think that people like TNT Amusements stay in business?
