I've heard this same thing many times over the years. There are instances where a larger number of used pins hit the market around the same time and that causes a temporary dip in prices. You know, its that thing called supply and demand. Right now its because there are a number of interesting new games coming out and people are dumping games to free up space/funds. Once that supply is soaked back up, prices correct, it always does. The only exception it seems to this is when a remake comes out. Prices typically correct to remake price point, unless that remake is higher than the original used selling price (BDK).

While its hard not to get excited about such a great theme, what if its a turd? I highly doubt I'll even buy one on the first run, but we'll see. We know with Stern, that if the game is a hit, they will be running them for at least two years.

Plus the pool of buyers for 8k plus games is smaller than 4-5k games. But they are making more and more 8k+ games, heck even 12k super duper LEs. I think the hobby has shown it can sustain 6-7k priced titles. Beyond that is still a huge unknown. I do have some doubts, but I also remember saying that my limit was 6k several years ago, but now have deposits down on two 8k games. WTF

How do we know its going to be after the original trilogy? What if instead of a Darth Vader LE its a Kylo Ren LE? Does that make it go for slightly less?

It must have been that Met remake rumor taking a bite out of prices. Kidding of course.

Seriously though, that was a great deal and why it lasted for about 1 hour before it sold.

Same. I read the first paragraph (maybe 2) and move on. You have to be able to make your points in fewer words.
