Quoted from johnwartjr:

Here's the listing:
ebay.com link » 1996 Sega Twister Pinball Machine
The body reads:
'If picking up in person this item MUST be payed for in cash at pickup.....NO EXCEPTIONS!This is a real nice Twister Pinball machine that works 100% with no errors.This game is probably one of Sega's best pinball machine's and highly underrated!The cabinet is nice and solid with only a little wear by the flipper buttons.The play field is still glossy with some normal wear around the spinning disk.The top fan and all magnets work properly.All play field lighting works as it should with quite a few super bright led's added throughout the game.This pinball has the latest Rom installed and has a brand new DMD display,The board set is the Sega White Star design and are ALL original with the Sega tags still in place.This game plays SUPER FAST and probably has one of the BEST multiball features in pinball.This machine looks much better in person due to my lack of picture taking skills.....You are welcome to come see and play before bidding.
On Feb-16-15 at 14:40:19 PST, seller added the following information:
Shipping is not free of course.I will assist a shipper of your choice and you are responsible for payment to them.I used North American Van Lines in the past for shipping pins without any problems.Look them up on the web.'

I didn't see anything about putting the game in cold storage. Just Cash at pickup no exceptions.

Quoted from mtkinf:

If the buyer really said this, it's a huge red flag; that's not how it works. When you bid on an auction, your bid IS the agreed-upon price, based on the description. Now if the machine was listed as 100% working but it turns out this is not true, then the machine was not as described and the buyer has the right to cancel and get a refund, and leave appropriate feedback.
By cancelling, the seller simply saved them both time and money and if the deal had gone through, we would probably be reading the same dueling threads, both complaining about how they were ripped off by the other.

If the buyer said all that and the seller said what was stated in the other thread...they are both nuts.
