Like others i can't see the point either.
Plus, is it not better to spread the love? to let someone else that may really want it to enjoy the machine?

The second bugs bunny machine was sitting in a junkyard of all things, if i hadnt of bought it, it would have been thrown away to the tip i reckon & wrecked forever.
The second Star Trek Next Next Gen was in such good condition, and at a great price, that i couldnt say no when my mate offered it to me.

The 2 x Star Trek Data East 25th Anniversary machines are absolutely MINT. I reckon I would have 2 x of the best examples of them in the country if not, for a million miles. I knew if i didnt grab them both when I saw them sitting Minty in a warehouse (which they were sitting for well over ten yrs) it was a now or never type of decision.
I chose the now. That Star Trek 25th Anniversary machine/title is a really fun game to play if u love Star Trek. The bright pinks on the playfield are amazing.

I wish i could go back ten yrs in a time machine, cause I would have bought a dozen or more of some titles and kept 2 or 3 of each forever. Lined up, multiples look amazing.
Also, if you have doubles of a title, u can lend out a machine to a friend which I have done with a few to share the fun. Fortunately, I do have the room, so having 30 DMD machines is both fun and painful at the same time. Moving one or two is a pain, because it causes a domino effect and then u have to move others. Its like a rubix cube, fifty moves to get one position sorted out.  @.@

I have bought the same pin in better condition than the first but not as a double, I sold the original one first.
I wouldn't do it myself but can see why some collectors would.

I think I would consider two at some stage .... one for a project and one that I could keep playing. Not sure I would hang on to it longer term though, but I guess you just never know once you see them lined up.   %$%
