Pete,that was a great response. Been collecting since Strikes came out in 1992,& this is the first time ,I have ever heard a comment from a Manager,telling what a Strike is worth today. Could it be because he sells also!! So a Strike is selling in the $500 range now,try selling next Year,& if the Interest has dwindled,due to the high cost of them,& most people knowing they cannot get them all. Get ready to take a Bath. I traded $1500.00 for a $40 Treasure Island,a while back,can I get $1000.00?? Maybe!! There are Many more out there including the Nevada $7.00s. Does anybody remember when the Comstock $7s were $80 Each? The interest is gone. Many of the Better $10s, have come down in price also. If all of the Strike Machines are eventually pulled,then where will this Hobbie be anyway.
