    Quoted from ovfdfireman:

    I took it as games in the lower price range are not for sale like T2, BOP, F14
    Rather than games being price too high.....I think people understand a new defame is price higher, but some simply don't have $5-8k to drop on a game
    On the topic of hoarding, I have a lot of games but they are all set up and played. I used to have some in storage but realized having games all wrapped up are pointless to me and others if they can't be played. I don't want to have things just for the sake of having them. One day it changed for me, and I sold them. But to each his own.

    I agree with this. I sold games that were not setup in my gameroom, if it wasn't being used it was sold to someone else who would enjoy it. It is sad to me that games get stacked up and hoarded in buildings and warehouses that will probably never get played again, when there are so many people who would love a chance to buy them for a gameroom.

    There is a guy out here in the hot AZ desert that has buildings/sheds, his whole house filled with games. It blew my mind how many games and parts he had basically decaying in the summer heat in these sheds. The thing that pissed me off is there are a lot of pinheads here that would save each and every one of them.
