some far points n questions have been raised about 2nd hand pricing, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

but a question, for arguments sake.

If a brand new in box AC/DC Pro was $5950 plus $200 delivery plus $200 shaker motor, equals $6350.

If I was to sell my AC/DC Pro, which has a shaker motor, plus the original box, and the machine is immaculate, with less than apx 700 games, wouldnt say $5,000 be a fair price, saving the buyer $1350 from new, *as an example. You cant even tell the game has been played it is that immaculate.
The very least I thought it would be worth is $4800 to $5,000.  If a sited one goes for $4,000 to $4,200, wouldnt an immaculate HUO machine be worth $600 to $800 more ?

The point is, some will say save the $1350 and buy a low usage HUO machine, others will say, nehhhh, just spend the extra $1350 and get BNIB. Others will say $5,000 is fine, others will say more like $4500.  It all depends on the week the seller is selling, and the week the buyer is buying, and if all the planets align, everyone comes out happy ! (hopefully).  %.%
