Quoted from teekee:I might take a look at getting a nice HUO one down the road for about $2000 less... patience is a virtue but as we know new pinball makes most very stupid. I say take advantage of the stupid!
My guess is that it will take a $2k hit by the 3rd or 4th owner...if each owner holds it 2-3 years, you may be looking at 6-9 years before before seeing A sub $8k pirates, at which point it has 5k plus plays...
Just buy a new one..yo ho yolo...
