Quoted from pezpunk:Extremely nice STTNGs have been in the $4500 range for years.
That's just not true. You can find a nice one priced right if you are patient.
Quoted from pinlink:People have lost their minds lately with these asking prices.
STTNG is a $3,500 game folks. And no I don't mean one with "flaky optos and 12v issues".
Lol! Literally everyone that down voted this has a STTNG in their collection. The price pumping around here lately is INSANE!
Quoted from Wickerman2:Time warp
OR, they have BOUGHT a STTTNG and know the price...hmmmm....naaaaah, that makes too much sense in our new fact free society.
PS It's not a 5k game. It's around 4k for players, 4500+ for GREAT shape.
I'd love for them to chime in with what they paid. They are not basing it off what they paid, but what they hope it is now worth. You think they all paid 4-4500? You're kidding yourself.
Quoted from Wickerman2:Times change. Prices change
LOL!! So what was the quote below about? You were implying that because they have bought a STTNG that they would know what a good price would be. This keeps getting better! So to be clear, owners of the game are most qualified to determine current value?
Quoted from Wickerman2:OR, they have BOUGHT a STTTNG and know the price...hmmmm....naaaaah,
Quoted from Wickerman2:typically you watch the prices and look at current games to compare...so, yes.
Your point was an owner is better qualified to do this than a non owner. Do you understand that an owner would be more inclined to suggest a higher value?
Quoted from NJGecko:I'm sure you're going to come back with a snarky response to me, but maybe people posting on here really do know what the going price is...and maybe you might be open to actually listening to them instead of flatly just discounting their opinion. There are always exceptions to "average" prices. There are super low prices, and super high prices that aren't the norm. That said, the average price is definitely higher than it was a few years ago. That's just the reality.
If you are patient, you may find a better deal, but average price point has risen. It happens. You have given your opinion, and you don't need to get nasty with people who might not agree with you.
And my disclaimer...over the last 5 years I have bought and sold this game several times personally so I do speak from experience. And I don't currently own it.
So what is your opinion on current market value of a STTNG?
Quoted from Seatmandan:I down-voted that comment, and I'm NOT a STTNG owner, nor have I ever owned one. I did, however, play them back when they came out and there was always a wait
You sure did. AFTER I made that comment, sure others will as well but at the time I made the comment it was true.
Quoted from NJGecko:Seriously, can you just let it go? Everyone in here isn't out to get you, just stop nit-picking at everyone and needing to have the last word.
You made your point, people agree or don't, but you don't need to personally respond to everyone that didn't agree. That's what PMs are for.
This is a discussion forum.
Quoted from Zitt:hum.. considering I have never traded or sold a game... might want to re-think the motives, huh?
STNG would be the first game I bought... and likely the last to leave.
There is a reason it's a $5k game.
You don't have to be selling a game to have a vested interest in its value. Some people don't get this for some reason. 5k? Why not 6k?
Quoted from Wickerman2:Last half dozen I've seen have went for around 4k avg. Pinkink is taking heat because he is presenting his opinion in a somewhat troll-like fashion. Did you read the whole thread?
We can have differing opinions without one of us being a "troll". You haven't been exactly polite to me, but I'm not upset or going to call you names.
