I put a vote in for Kingpin as it sounds good and also as a investment. I got a email from Marc from BigBangBarStuff a few days ago detailing the value of the the BBB so maybe the Kingpin will benefit. Here is what he said - "The BBB project is long done and any machines available are in collector's hands. There are some NIB BBBs out there, but I hear they are going for over $20,000 USD. I think used ones go for $8-12k. If you are interested in a new one, I know of a guy that has a NIB. I think he rejected an offer over $20k already, so I think it would take $25-30K to get him to let it go. I don't think he wants to sell it, but has not set it up yet..."

as much as I'd like one , I can't see this going over the 20k mark in the next 10 years, and if it ever did "big if"

you would have to convince the wife that spending 20k for a pinball is a good investment , then stair at the unopened box for the next how many years

just in the hope it goes up more then what you paid , I fine two problems with this ,

 

first ,, convincing the wife

second,, fining a sucker to pay over 20k

 

I'll stick to the LE sterns for now

Don't think any are overpriced. They are expensive because they are good and everyone wants one. If they didn't, they would be a lot cheaper. Too many people put far too much emphasis on the cost when they rate CC and MM for instance.
