I found a pirate ship 6243, 100% complete with manuals, used condition for $115.   This is for my personal collection.

Should I bite given there is a rumor a new pirate theme reboot may happen?  or should I wait for the reboot?

$115 is a good price for it so I'd say go for it. You can sell it off eBay just in case you'd rather want the new one once it's been released.

Fairly good price, I would buy it!

Someone in my area is selling it for even cheaper...  $100.

I saw that one and was giving serious thought to picking it up

Ex Astris, Scientia.

$115 seems like a good price. Even if they come out with a better version, you can still sell the other one for some profit.

Make sure it has the most rare piece shark<

Thanks for the heads up.  I will double check that.

Here is one for around 165. Seems to be going for 260 or so on ebay.
