I have to say that I'm happy with my collection now. Love all my games. All in beautiful condition and nicely modded. Not in the least interested in adding more pins. Maybe I'll swap one out every couple years. But there are enough new ones in the wild now for me to try out and get my fix. Glad I didn't wait until now at these prices to start a collection! 
Quoted from jfh:Ditto. One of the few advantages of having all favorites in your collection and being out of room. Will have to be a great execution of a grail theme for me to consider buying another NIB game since an existing game would have to go.
Yup, but I'm not actually out of room. I could easily make room for 3 more and even several more after that, if I got rid of my pool table or gym!
Not happ'nin.
Yup!
I just payed $4400.00 USD for a Bram Stoker's. That's what a decent one is going for now! And this ain't no collectors quality, just one that doesn't have a planked, shit playfield and has a decent cab and works correctly. It needed several basic repairs. Also, 3 new plastics and all the red in the decals repainted. Lots of work!
I just added Pinsound Plus board and new speakers! Awesome!! Especially with an external sub as well! Probably the best game for it with the new sound set! I like the red DMD as is though. IMO not worth the money to upgrade to color because you also have to upgrade the speaker panel to a clear windowed version. Another 100.00. Also, there aren't that many animations.
Quoted from NPO:Wow, wonder what one with ColorDMD and PinSound with @hazards mix goes for....
Not that I plan to sell mine. If I did, it is gonna hurt, and it wont be me.
With the upgrades I just did, including Pinsound system, Invisiglass, LED's in backbox including flashers, art blades, spot light on cemetery, 3D lenticular apron cards, flashers on rear of Back box and red under cab lighting, I have about $5700.00 into it! A NIB Stern Pro a couple years ago!
Quoted from NPO:No way, man. Banning pinball auction got $6400. Makes yours at least $8000.
Make sure you put at the end of your ad:
"I KnOW WHat I hAVe!!!!!!!"
/end sarcasm
LOL!
Banning was just retarded!
