Re: Will the bubble burst?

I don't think so. I think he's very accurate. Many/most
folks that are buying up pinball machines of late could
care less of the "Collectable Value". They just want a
game because someone they know has one, or they've
seen one in a home elswhere. It's "chic".

New homes now have 'gamerooms' built in.

The bubble _will_burst....
