The only good thing is that some of the popular games are almost "investment" level right now and it is easy to sell used games at little to no loss (but who knows when that market might crash.)
Compared to other entertainment, board games are cheap. Skiing at Sunshine is $180. How much is a round of golf? Flames or concert tickets? A good game will get played multiple times. Games can be resold.

We just formed a board game club in CNP. The group divides between casual and more serious gamers.
