Maybe I’m missing something. You say you priced it with a +/- $200 buffer and are insulted by an offer that’s $200 less than your ask?
If that insults you, I think you’re in the wrong hobby. Also
Quoted from Md2020:Lastly, who delivers a used machine, sight unseen, to a buyer? Has that ever happened on here?
Has anyone literally delivered a machine to an address someone gave them on the internet successfully??
I want to know
A “shit ton of people” is the correct answer to this question.
Quoted from Md2020:As I stated, many times, above. I’m not insulted by a “lowball” offer. I was AMAZED by a lowball offer and delivery in the same sentence without even looking at it, or starting a conversation.
I just thought it was funny. So, I’m really sorry if this offends you.
Again, none of what the potential buyer is asking is out of the realm of normal, this is pinball.
I’m not offended in the least. I just think you need to temper expectations. I’ve driven 15 hours one way to pick up a pinball. I’ve brought pinballs to people hrs away. I had someone come buy a pin and stay the night so they didn’t have to do 16hrs of driving in one day. All of this is normal in this hobby. It’s a whacky world.
Actually now that I think about it. I’m excited for you. You have so many WTF moments coming your way. Keep us posted!
Quoted from o-din:"I would buy a new Ninja Turtles pinball sight unseen. It is my dream theme and I still have my bedroom decorated the way it was when I was ten years old"
OMG. Now that’s a nice reference.
