could just leave it at this.

Been saying this for a while now. The secondary market has shifted on ALL brand new games. Stern all models, Spooky, JJP, AP, ALL MANUFACTURERS!

If you buy new, you should expect that in the vast majority of cases that you will be losing 10-20% when you sell.

That said, some will hold value or even go up. Good games where supply is less than demand.

550 is not a big number by any means. Comparable to most SternLEs. Who knows what the future holds for TNA on Secondary. I for one dont care. Game is so damn fun to play and that is all that matters to me.

yeah, just listened.

Sounds like TNA stops at 550. They may bring it back, they may not. If they ever do bring it back, sounds like it will be a long bit.

In other words, all this means is that you should put in your order now if you want a TNA NIB before they take it off the line.

Spooky aint stern so swapping games on the line takes more than a few days and guessing it only happens if there is demand down the road to justify another batch (batch being 50 still I would guess)

lol. you have sold more pins than most in the time you have been in the hobby.

You definitely like buying and selling It is OK to admit you addiction.

come play the one we have on route. Decide for yourself.

I personally think it is quite fun...

links please. I have a friend looking for one right now for a deal

can you please hook me up with the 2 that you know of for sale that are already going for a bargain?

I have looked all over all the usual spaces and can not find anything.

some people get it...

gotta love the thumbs up is like the sound "woosh" going over their heads

so you are saying you dont have contact info on these multiple TNAs at bargain prices???

I wish I could be so spot on and concise.

I have spoken with the distributor about it. In short, you have to buy every new game that comes out in order to get the best prices.

Buy the last 15 games in a row and they may give you a deal also.

That said, everyone got the awesome deal that Marco was offering on all the Maiden show games. That was the best price I had ever seen. I should have bought 10 of them and sold them all at the shows for a mark up.

the one caveat being that if they take a long break then once again demand may out pace supply.

Assuming that post 550, it will be a year or 2 before they even opt to make an additional run (based on demand) and it takes Spooky a bit to change over everything given their size.

I personally think with only 550 to start that this game will solidify in most collections over time and you won see it change hands. Then steadily demand will increase and Spooky will run another batch. IN the time between, prices will likely rise. At the same time, given the pace of Stern NIB price hikes and the cost of other NIB games, 3 more releases and 6k will be the cost of a NIB pro.

I could also see SPooky needing to slightly increase price before they do any additional runs (inflation and increasing manufacturing costs a few years from now). That of course will also push prices on used games. Hard to predict, fun to discuss.

I am looking forward to my second TNA arriving by xmas or shortly after with any luck.

ummm...
That is $5 more than NIB...

He said

no, I did not miss it.

Spyder is claiming bargain prices. I dont care for mods and $5 more than MSRP plus additional shipping is not a bargain in my book.

If you live in a local state, you could drive to Spooky factory and pick up your game tax free for $5995.

I am still waiting on spyder to provide these deals to anyone. They either dont exist or he is not interested in helping out his local collectors by cross posting here

listed 6 days ago (over a holiday weekend) for more than brand new. That seems like the fact.
Combined with you just selling yours for more than original cost in the past few weeks...

All seems to me like the secondary market is still going strong.

I was asking Snyper where these supposed deals are. I am not looking for NIB prices on used games or in the case of your sale, more than NIB prices.

Deals folks, we are looking for supposed deals.

sorry, dyslexia is a bitch sometimes.

? That is still above original cost (sorry but mods dont add value for most sales).
