I'm considering buying a White Water. Trying to guess how long I'll want this pin in my very small collection (max of 2, only 1 setup at a time).
I have ACDC Premium currently, and can't imagine ever wanting to sell it.
TSPP just wasn't fast/exciting enough (though it's a great pin for a larger collection in my opinion).

I expect I can get a players pin for $3000 or less, or a much nicer one for $5000 or more.

I may want StarTrek when it comes out, but could sell either WH2O or ACDC when the time comes.

So I'd love to hear from previous owners as to why they sold, and current owners who will never sell theirs, or are getting bored of it (after how long?).

I've been playing it on my Ipad since its release. Heard a number of people say that it's quite the game so figured it was worth trying out.
I played it initially at a friend's place but it didn't hold my attention. Since playing on the Ipad, and understanding the rules, I've been back to his place and played it again. Love it!
I'm trying to decide how much to spend on one. Seems like the regular $3000+ WH2O pins out there are pretty beat up, and few/far between.
Not sure if I were to buy a resto'd WH2O if I could sell it down the road without taking a bath.
I expect this is one of the nicest looking pins when it's been resto'd, what with the PF artwork and especially the numerous, lengthy ramps (gotta have those clear though! The cloudy ones I've been seeing just don't have the same wow-factor).
Throw in a colour DMD and I'll bet this could trick some people into thinking it's the latest pin out of the factory.
Generally, I don't play a pin to beat it. AC/DC for me, is all about the multiballs. WH2O has a simple multiball which is also very cool. Easy to understand, easy to see the locks and what needs to be done as well.

Trying to decide between one of these and the upcoming Star Trek... decisions, decisions.
