I also do not have a LE machine, but in my oppinion i would never buy something without seeing it first, and maybe having a game on it.

In my financial situation i cant afford to be paying down a deposit onto something i have never seen much less a non refundable deposit !

If they were to be re-run, given the opportunaty to have a few games on it i would strongly consierd buying one because i have seen it, and i have had a few games

I may be the only one who thinks like that, but thats the way i see it
