This was on a local CL (now appears to be flagged, but I have the text from emailing to a buddy that is looking for an AFM)

Advertised for $2500

"My husband and I are getting a divorce after 8 years of marriage. He is in Vegas this weekend with
His 30 year old girl friend. I ask that the buyer get it out of our house before he
Returns on Monday night. I am going to show him a few things about being tilted. Again, I will be very
Descrete regarding this transaction. Please bring cash only. I will be available all weekend and
Will even help carry this pinball out of our walk out basement."

Ha! probably a fake, people are rarely willing to help you carry a machine.

Sounds like he's the one doing the.... Well, you know

#11 12 years ago

Might be able to screw her too.

Good to see that Pinsiders are suspicious of that ad. It may have actually be intended as printed, but something makes it seem like a set-up. Probably one of those "too good to be true" deals. If I were going to the address to try to purchase the machine I would not go alone. The location/address of the pick-up point would be a big clue as to possible scam or not (what type neigborhood?, or is it at some backstreet run-down commercial warehouse area, or does seller insist on meeting at a certain parking lot, etc.).

If you have time to work out when you have an AFM, you don't deserve it in the first place.

#14 12 years ago

had a friend who bought a sports car that way. could be true.

Or revenge shagged as a bonus

You must not have ever seen a woman really mad. I have seen it a few times with friends. Some women will do anything when they want revenge.

Exactly!!

Almost the same add for a $500 Funhouse in the Buffalo area last year.

Still worth an email though

some fitting devil horns

LOL

It could be fake or could be a 2'fer

#21 12 years ago

I heard a story once on Paul Harvey were the guy ran off with his secretary, and phoned home to tell his wife to sell the Porsche, and send him half the money..She put an ad in the paper, sold it for $50, and sent him the $25!

#22 12 years ago

I hope the bottom boyz don't show up

#23 12 years ago

A similar ad went up for a MM a couple months ago, the ad claimed they had taken a poo on the playfield cause they were mad at their spouse. We get at least one a month like that on the local CL here. Someone is either being funny or harvesting emails.

#25 12 years ago

Does that mean you snagged this?

#26 12 years ago

I bought a Harley this way! Save about $4000

I to would love to know if it was actually real? If so, please post a picture of the wife after you pic it up

+1 Very true.

#29 12 years ago

I've seen this exact same ad before.

#30 12 years ago

My wife wouldn't sell them out from under me or destroy them but she did say she would take them in the settlement.

#32 12 years ago

bring a pistol and a Guido with you!

#33 12 years ago

Key point. Don't get married. They will destroy your nice things.

1 year later

Funny old thread that I missed last year. For those who haven't seen it yet.
