I'm curious--what's your price for an SE working 100% with no issues, no cosmetic flaws?

Well is an 8k offer really that tempting? This isn't a mass prodced Stern where the usual depreciation comes into play. Beyond that, you don't seem to hang on to games very long, so why would someone offer up a generous price for you, only to see it back up for sale in 6 months at all of the extra cash they sacrificed?

Quoted from chad:

Someone stateside should buy up the remaining stock pile of parts for Alien. Or has that happened????

There's no such thing. The community has made many of the parts available in an on-demand basis. If you need LED's for it, you order from a Pinsider who found a way to make them. Need an I/O board, same deal. Need a stepper motor for the Xeno? It's a basic off the shelf part. Need the computer? Same deal. LCD screen? Same deal, off the shelf. Plastics are the only thing I can think of that is pending creation by the community.

Quoted from jgentry:

You Alien owners are an intense bunch. Circling these threads like buzzards. Got to protect that investment.
It's a theme a lot of people like, if people can keep the game running it should stay pretty valuable due to rarity. No real need for all of the pumping as there are enough people with bottomless wallets in this hobby that it won't really matter. If people will pay over 15K for a box of lights like Magic Girl the sky is the limit for a game that actually plays. It's the comments like "there are only X number and no one is selling so good luck" that really crack me up. If you want something and you are willing to pay market+ you can get pretty much anything you want in this hobby. Will Delt find one under 10K, I doubt it. But that doesn't mean they are not changing hands.

It's as funny as those parroting information from last year about how part X isn't available or the game is a paperweight.
