I recently sold a pin to a buyer who was more into the theme (Star Wars) than into pins. I don't have a problem with that, but when I went over the machine with the individual there were a LOT of questions. I gave him contact information for a couple local pinball techs in the area. But this got me to thinking, it might be good to have a "Bill of Sale" so the buyer doesn't come back and want a refund. I don't believe there would be any recourse for a cash sale - a sale is a sale, but you just never know. It is more of an issue of how much time something like that could take up. Time that I wouldn't want to waste. I was thinking that a "Bill of Sale" would at least be something that could be referred to if a buyer has buyer's remorse.

Probably just overthinking it because of this last buyer, but I am interested in other's thoughts?

I did when buying for business but have not when buying for home use.
Always just kept it simple and wrote something up.

I typically write a receipt and include the terms, 'as-is' and 'no expressed or implied warranty'. Include the date and dollar amount to avoid/minimize any future problems. You never know when that simple piece of paper will be needed.

Other than buying new or getting the original on a HUO machine I've never asked or gotten...or been asked to give a receipt

That is pretty awesome of you to help and in fact its probably not a bad idea to use them. I'd even consider using one for my next sale.
