Glen Ellyn, IL
Quoted from Viggin900:The increasing prices of pinball machines comes from wages and taxes. So why are they made in the city with the highest rates? I recently had a neighbor move from Chicago because they were taxing 65% of his paycheck! Not saying Northern Kentucky has the entertainment of a big city but Amazon has made us the hub of america because of cheap wages, railroad, and an international airport. So how much cheaper would it be to manufacture pinball outside of Chicago? I am surrounded by car part factories for this reason. Square foot building in Chicago versus somewhere else is 8x as much? Pointless, I say move.
Yeah I agree. They should move to Kentucky...........Not!!! Lol.
You’re using Amazon as an example?!! What exactly do they make?
Isn’t Amazon just giant holding facilities of products created by other companies?
And most of their product are made from sellers in China, correct?
It might be cheaper to go to Kentucky, Montana or even India but it would be a logistical nightmare and the pinball talent is non-existent.
