    I have seen a few posts point to the fact, but am I the only one amazed that in the peak pinball selling season, we are seeing little interest in many titles across the board and the prices are dropping for machines to move. It is very easily explained by the new products in the market and the plethora of choices we have now and the anticipation about future titles. I am fine with the value of the collection dropping some because it is just a hobby, but I see a lot of titles dropping $500-2k (or more) depending on title and condition. I feel as if the market on most titles has dropped at least 20% since the MMR announcement coupled with all the new titles. It will be a good buying opportunity, but are folks ready to part with titles at significant losses? if not, I guess they won't move. Any other thoughts on the current values of titles in the market?
