I'd have gone for it at $5600, maybe $6k if the art was better.

Quoted from Dr-Willy:I talked to a distributor about 3 days after it was announced publicly. They were allocated 15 games and had 3 left unsold. They were asking Stern for another 15.
I am not doubting that is what the dealer told you. But this is something I'd take with a grain of salt.
I was told by one distributer that XMLE was selling out quick and he might not be able to get me the Wolverine model since that was selling out, while in fact years later dealers still had both versions in inventory I was talking to one dealer 18 months after I got XMLE and they had 6 in stock a few of each.
It's like asking a barber if he thinks you need a haircut. What do you think he's going to say?
If a distributer ordered 15 and he sold only 2 (I'm just giving this as an example) and you call him. Do you think he'd say:
a) I ordered 15 and I only sold 2.
b) I ordered 15 which is almost sold out so I'm ordering another 15.
I'll bet you 99 out of 100 will say (b) because it creates the illusion that it's selling well and it's price is good.
