This was our first pinball purchase, and James was such a pleasure to deal with.» Read moreHe took the time out of his weekend to listen and answer all of my "newbie" questions. He gave great suggestions on where to find parts and accessories. He even followed up later that evening to make sure we made it home and got everything setup and working properly.

“Dealing with James is easy and straightforward. It is these Pinsider that make this site work. We made a deal on Sunday on my The Getaway HSII and made a 7 hour drive to pick it up on Monday. I would not hesitate to deal with James, again either as a buyer or a seller.”
James is an amazingly trustworthy and responsive Seller! He immediately sent me his photo ID and pictures of the boxed game (Godzilla LE) with a Bill of Lading putting me at ease as to who he was and the fact that he did have the pin. He then immediately sent me banking and wiring info so I could get him the money. When the» Read moremoney was sent, he immediately let me know he had been paid. Within days, my shipper picked the pin up and James made himself available for the pickup. Pictures were taken and sent verifying the pickup and the Bill of Lading to me. James followed up to make sure I received the pin and it arrived in great shape—which it did. The transaction could not have gone any smoother. I would purchase from James again in a heartbeat. It simply can’t get any better. James is smart, conscientious and caring. The Best!

“Lucas, it was great doing business with you! If you have an opportunity to do business with Lucas, rest assured that he’s an honest guy and things will go well with the sale. I’m glad you ended up with a great pinball that I’m certain you’ll enjoy as much as me. ST Next Gen will be in my collection in the future. Awesome game!”
A fellow Pinsider who you can trust. He took excellent pictures of the machine, before and after preparing for shipping. He took care of all the shipping hassles for me since I was in another state. I was nervous about a transaction all over the web and at this price but the updates of messages and current status even after it has left his» Read morecustody put my worries away. I received the machine today and found everything to be completely satisfactory. I 100% recommend this buyer to anyone looking to not getting taken advantage of. You might find someone else that is just as honest and concerned but you will not find any who will exceed him. I hope to deal with James again on future pinball related transactions. Thank you James!
