Comparing pinball to comics is hardly apples-to-apples. However, if you are buying pinball machines as an investment strategy you might belong in a comic book.
I think one of the only parallels between comics and pinball is that all-original, super-mint examples of either are the most expensive and highly sought after.
Each and every collectible item in the world has its ups & downs. Absolutely nobody can predict which direction the market will effect there specific item in the future.
I think its a pretty safe bet that Honus Wagner good/mint condition baseball cards and any of the SS100 Brough Superior Motorcycles once owned by T E Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) are going to do pretty well in the future......but even these treasures are subject to the whims of the market place.
Quoted from frolic:can't put a comic book on location and have it generate money.
And you would know!
We already have a thread on this same topic that was started yesterday. I see no reason for there to be two, so I'm closing this one down. The other thread can be found here:
