At least they provide an awesome performing product. Thats all I care about. Not worried about the value of my ego,didn't buy it to sell it. And I wouldn't sell it for what they sell for on pbn or ebay etc. Cause mine aint been beat to crap and unmaintained and agg parts swapped like the crap idiots try to sell these days as lnib.

/PE fanboy rant.

Agreed; I purchased my Ego9 new last summer and just recently surpassed 4000 shots on the counter - the marker is in immaculate condition, totally stock; I knew then that the value would drop, but I wanted a new marker - something untouched and unmolested (indeed, something that I hadn't molested). I wasn't thinking about resale value... in my opinion, if you're contemplating buying something that expensive, you should plan on haning on to it for a while.
