Added over 6 years ago:Have prices really gone this high? Wow

That's from a brick and mortar store, so no surprises there. I would expect their clientele to be a bit different than us pinheads. Who knows, they may take offers.
Austin powers is the only game I've ever gone to view in person and didn't end up buying.
Even tho it was cheap and a 2.5 hr drive, I just couldn't lay down the cash for it. What a crapper 
Likely going to have a TWD Pro available in the near future with a brand new populated pf that Stern sent me (yet to be installed).
Figure I'd put this out now and see if I can get some trade ideas. Prefer local trades.
Interested any of the following in mint condition with +/- cash depending on game: TSPP, WH2O, MET, IMDN, Spiderman, TNA, WOZ, Hobbit.
still need to make space and have an expensive repair to pay for my truck so need to sell a couple of games so i am selling my Riverboat Gambler $3250 and Bally MotorDome $1000 new rubbers and leds on both pm me if interested both are really in nice condition and playing great
Quoted from Deadrock:There's one for sale in Dawson Creek for half the price. ($4250)

Wow, that won’t last long!
Super fun great flowing game.
Quoted from Damien:Any recommendations on a powder coater in the Toronto area?
I've emailed and left messaged with a couple in Hamilton and never heard back from them. Lots of places listed on Kijiji who do the job though. If you find a good one I'd be interested in hearing about them too.

Texted you
Quoted from BMHouze:In my area its Tuff powder coating in Harley. Anyone here local is just marking up and sending there.
Tuff will also want to sandblast to ensure no contamination / job done right.
That’s not too far from me. Have you had work done by then? Any idea on costs? Might be worth giving it a go.
Quoted from BMHouze:My brother uses them for his dragster.
And I thought I had an expensive hobby! 
What class does he run?
Just testing the waters, I have a very nice Demolition Man with mirror blades, Color DMD, alternate trans light, full LED, re-chromed gun handles and some extras to throw in PM if interested.In the 5K area. Can forward some pics if there is interest. Cheers.
Need some assistance, I am looking to buy a game from a person located in the US. What is the best method for making a payment from Canada to the US with the lowest fees and best F/X rates? I looked at Paypal but the F/X rate is 1.35. I do have a US savings account with RBC but Paypal seems to always need to convert to Canadian first before making the payment. Have you mailed a US dollar bank draft to the seller? Not sure how long that would take to be received? Can I transfer funds directly from a Canadian bank account to a US based bank? Thanks for your help!
I convert CDN to USD with Knightsbridge Foreign Exchange first. You make a bill payment to them via online banking and instruct them which acct you want the USD to go into. I’ve done this to my own US bank but not to another person, but can’t see why it won’t work.
I had to set up a new Paypal acct in the US. they won’t let you link a USD acct with a Canadian bank for some reason.
May be other ways, or other FX companies. But its worked for me.
Quoted from BMHouze:He now drags at Sparta 1/4 mile 60s Ford Flacon.
He used to do 1/8 mile all over northern and eastern ont and this end of Quebec.
Too much travel and wear on the rv.
It's been a long time since I've been to Sparta, I used to go out there for street legal Fridays. I understood the track was so rough past the 1/8 mile was why many of the bigger cars stopped going there?
I try to get to Grand Bend at least once or twice a year. I'm not a racer, just an avid fan.
I love the smell of nitro in the morning!
Oh Kijiji, how i use you sell and buy stuff. But 50% of the people just anger me. Kijiji stories could almost have it's own thread

I've done a direct transfer to the sellers account. Check with your bank what info they need (there's quite a bit), in turn let the seller know. Once they provide the info, go back to your bank. Easy peasy. Having said this, I hope you trust the seller. Cause once you transfer the funds, any recovery could be difficult I would think.

Thanks for the advice. The seller has been active on this site since 2012, sold 18 games/parts on site and had 100% positive feedback from other three site members that purchased stuff from him. What else would you suggest to get comfort from the seller?
Whatever you're comfortable with. To me that sounds reliable for sure, and I'd make the leap. Sounds like you've done your due diligence!

I'd take a look at the rate you are going to get elsewhere and compare the two and consider using PayPal for the added protection. I don't know the purchase amount but if it is $5K and you can find a rate .02 better you are going to save yourself $100 but also give up any protection PayPal would give you. I'd eat the $100 and use PayPal at that point. If the seller is asking you pay via Family and Friends or asking you to cover the PayPal fees then they are breaking the terms of PayPal. How far away is the machine? If it is 2 or 3 gas tanks away then I'd consider making the drive so you can inspect and hand over cash. There are a lot of machines out there so unless this is a hard to find one or you are getting a great deal or both you've got to weigh the risks with the rewards.

I’m the seller. I promise I’m not a dirtbag! 
Quoted from Mudflaps:I’m the seller. I promise I’m not a dirtbag!
So that would rule out the 2 or 3 tanks of gas thought
