I remember when the Euro and other currencies were strong and sold some of my pins overseas for a decent price. Then, in 2008-2011 the prices came back down due to our economy here I suppose. Now we have an overheated stock market along with weak worldwide currencies and it appears to me that prices for good pins that are rated in the top twenty are as strong as they have ever been.
Knowing this, is it a good time to unload the desirable Williams machines anticipating a market correction?
Also, considering that the new MMR is as nice, if not better, than the original would it even be a better reason to sell knowing that they could easily remake TOTAN, CV, and other popular non-licensed themes? Having ordered a MMR LE myself I feel that the popular machines that need no licensing are targets for remake. With Cirqus Voltaire now bringing $5k for a rough unit and upwards to $8-9k for a pristine unit a new one with modern electronics for $8k makes sense.
LOL - JUST NOTICED - I did not give the option for prices to go up. Please use the last option for that.
Also, Stern machines outside of the Top 100 are doing rather well. I remember buying a NIB Monopoly for $3300 back in 2003. I sold it a year later for about the same price. Really nice HUO machines were maybe low $2k just a few years back. I have seen quite a few sales near $4k lately for this machine.
What say you?
