Supply and demand will determine price in the secondary market plain and simple, just like every other pin. Someone list a R&M pin for 10k gets flamed and sells it in <30min you bet this will inc the secondary market. Same guy list for 7k and it sits for a few weeks same effect drop price till it sells. Why are we even talking about this when we haven't even seen game play/flow? Looks will be deceiving on this pin. IMO its not a dressed up Turd, its a solid pin made by a solid company who truly loves pinball. They put a majority of the budget into "the actual game" and there was nothing left to dress it up without sacrificing. They almost ditched the magansave because they were over budget, and bc it was so fun they left it in (if this is indeed kool aid, i drank it).
R&M 1971 for 1,000,000 years! For ever and ever!
