What the heck happened to this hobby while I was gone
I left the hobby a few years ago when I sold all my arcade cabinets, but I still kept a bunch of boards, just in case.. I'd be back, I told myself. Well now I'm back. I bought one of those supergun boards on ebay and it works perfectly.
But.. What the f*ck happened? Ebay feels empty now compared to how it was around 2008-2012. The prices went up to insane levels ($200+ for sf2 turbo?!), and the market is flooded with endless multi boards.. Working Mortal Kombat sets are selling for 200-300?!
There's isn't much stuff anymore at all for sales.. It's all gone. Also, the few japanese sellers left have all gone insane with their prices.
Is everybody hoarding all their boards now? Is everybody simply using those damn Pandora multiboards to play?
Did I miss something? I think I have missed a memo or something while I was gone..
