This thread is doomed to be repeated over and over again.
The video game market is pretty much where pinball was back around 2007/2008. More and more people keep getting into the hobby and prices will keep going up.
You also have a bunch of people who were pinball only now getting priced out or getting sick of the pinball prices and moving over into video games since they seem like a relative bargain. I know a number of people that collect vids now who had zero interest in video games until the last year or so.
The harder to come by titles are going to start climbing in price.. its already been happening.
I think the last Food Fight on ebay went for over 3K?. I got mine for a grand and was told I overpaid 3 years ago, so... a grand was the high side a few years ago now 3K is, thats a pretty big increase in a few years.
