    Donkey has a little fade on him... not sure....

    #3 11 years ago
    Quoted from way2wyrd:

    non-working donkey

    Define "non-working"

    #4 11 years ago

    Have to be an ass to go for this trade.

    #5 11 years ago

    My question is, what pinball owner has a need for a donkey? That's like saying "will trade my skateboard collection for your arc welder"

    Quoted from RCA1:

    Define "non-working"

    Usually means won't lead, won't follow, won't pull anything, won't let you ride it, will bite, will kick, and only good for making little donkeys/mules. I also don't think that left ear seems to be working properly. Probably could use a rebuild. lol

    #7 11 years ago

    Looks like a stuck flipper too, may need a new coil.

    Edit - blondetall beat me to it

    Classic!

    Just make sure you run diagnostics on it before you pick up. And, remember, this thing is heavy to move so bring two people.

    I have heard donkeys are helpful to keep coyotes away from your livestock. So if any pinsider is having any of their cattle herd picked off, they is a great deal for you.

    Probably just needs a fuse.

    #11 11 years ago

    Looks like a widebody!

    That is true, but this one is "non-working." He'd be all like "That's not in my job description. Screw you and your cattle."

    #13 11 years ago

    The first thing he should do is shop his non-working donkey.
    Then look for an even trade – like Shrek which also has a donkey.

    #14 11 years ago

    I would need some high res pics

    #15 11 years ago

    Thread has got to be one of the funniest yet

    I noticed the creative photography on the donkey to avoid getting the shooter lane in the shot.
    I doubt it still had the goodie bag attached.
    I would pass on this one.

    #18 11 years ago

    I can tell there's paint flaking off the back ass

    #19 11 years ago

    Would need to be shipped with legs on. Does NAVL provide the white glove service on this donkey?

    #20 11 years ago

    There are some great pics & story text along with pics on the web of a mule whippin some ass on a mountain lion.
    Search for mule fight mountain lion.

    The ad is also funny how it mentions "any of the newer machines will be fine".

    I assume he would be willing to trade a non-working donkey for a non-working Shrek or BBH.

    #21 11 years ago

    I wonder how well the "Kickers" work.

    #22 11 years ago

    If you nudge this, it might kickback

    it's a shame that this is a "non-working" donkey. otherwise he could have been used to protect the rest of your pinball machines from idiots that insist on excessive use of body english (eg. death save slamming) your machines or resting on or drinking beverages near them

    #25 11 years ago

    Pinball for some ass? Sounds like prostitution

    I lost it on this one.hahahahha..

    Good thing it's not a female.. Otherwise you wouldn't have multiball

    #27 11 years ago

    lol

    #28 11 years ago

    I'm afraid what it will do when I stick a coin in.
