All the time...buy it, clean it, play it for awhile and sell and use the profits for another pinball or trade up.

Just called and left a voice mail ha.

I see this a lot, I am always tempted for a minute, then I realize buying things you don't want is tantamount to hoarding.

This morning there was a gorgar that looked nice with an extra playfield and backglass for 1k. Seems like a real good deal, but I'm sure that the williams collection Gorgar is all the Gorgar I need in my house. I thought hard about it.. If I knew the promo vinyl went along with it, I think I would have no choice but to pull the trigger.

A DE Batman popped up on CL in my area for 1100. With California prices, doesn't seem that bad.

I haven't heard back from the seller yet, will keep you posted.

GAWH this happens to me too. Luckily I talk to my roommate first and he talks me down, reminding me I should save and get the pinball of my dreams first.

This always happens. Most of my pins I was not looking for.

I would buy just about anything if the price is right.

Amen....I've ended up playing alot of games I would have never owned otherwise. Some I liked, some I didn't, but if the price is right and I know it's not a money pit or loser, I always bite. The only time I lost was on an EBC for $350. Total turd and barely got my money back...Lost money on gas and time.

the guy hasn't called me back and now the ad has been pulled off of craigslist, thinking someone else jumped on it. Oh well.

Grogar is a 500-600 title in indiana that is high.

A HUO TSPP for 3k with maybe a couple hundred plays and mint all the way around. Sold it 1 week later. Snooze fest game.

Personally, I am on my lookout for a first pin, and I do not want to spend too much $$ on the first, mainly so i can get the wife hooked first. I already have her playing sometimes when we go out. Anyways, speaking of gorgar, i saw one recently go for $600.00 around here. I was waiting for 2 days for payday, and doncha know it, it was gone. Maybe not the best choice for a first pin, it may be the first with voice, but it grates on ya a bit. Dont know that the wife would like that in our office next the the living room; she would be selling it as soon as I was gone. LOL! So, I guess that would be one that I dont necessarly really want, but the price was right.

Like a SlugFest , I know where 1 is ... I Really don't want it but i can get it ( maybe ) if someone else was interested.. Like i got TSPP for Robertmee..

never pop up around here

I don't have any yet, but I've certainly tried for a couple. Interestingly enough, BTtF is one I would like to have, simply because I'm such a big fan on the movies. If one had popped up around here at that price, I absolutely would have called about it. I tried to snag a LW3 a bit ago despite the fact that I never considered owning one. I need to get faster, I guess

Good luck

SWE1. Got it because it was local and a good deal. After playing was very glad it was local and a good deal because I would have hated to have driven far or paid a lot for it.
