If you just bought this pin for this amount, you know where you got it from and I just want to say how jealous I am of you!! I was the one you outbid to win it. Good luck with it, it was a bargain and I hope you enjoy it to it's fullest.

I was mad I wasn't around to watch the live bidding on it since I had no way of knowing exactly when it would cross the block. I guess I should have put in a higher amount for my proxy bid!

Well, congratulations again and have fun.

And for all you other pinheads reading this wondering where this mythical place is to get such great deals on pins? I'm not telling, ever. I'm serious. I don't want probably the last marketplace to have good deals on pins to fade away into nothingness. Other examples of the deals there: STTNG-$2200 and FT-$900, both in great shape.

I was on, but the 18 - 20% buyer fee is crazy...

Tell me about it! That's why I left my bid at $4250. Still a great deal though considering it had all the documentation with it and the cabinet was in great shape. I had them send me some extra pics(great guys over there, VERY helpful) and it looked like there was some decent chair hole wear, but nothing a Cliffy wouldn't cover.

Would've been great to own at that price! Play it for a while and turn around and sell it a year later at twice the price! Can't go wrong there!

Are you guys talking about the auction a Saturday ?

Nope!

So where was this TAFG?

#7 11 years ago

It was in an estate sale, but that's as much as I'm saying.

This was a very helpful thread. Thanks for all the awesome information. I also know a place for great deals, but that's a secret too.

If you aren't going to say anything, it's pretty dumb to post this garbage and be all cryptic. Who cares where he got it, the sale is done and the buyer is under no obligation to chime in.
pertinent only to you is not what we do here. If you want to know who bought it without saying a word, don't post publically, make some pin friends and check in with your network.

It isn't top secret or anything it just takes a little light googling. This auction is a place I've looked for stuff in the past.

Anyways...

With ~20% buyers fee and shipping this TAFG is closer to $5700 which doesn't sound like an awesome deal. Maybe the deal is better if you can pick it up locally...

Yeah, but it's definitely a safe investment given it's condition and documentation. You'll always be able to sell it for more than that down the road.
