Has anyone purchased machines from this company? Looks like the prices are fair.
he has ads on here as well, they may be lower than the site, I know they are usually a little higher on Craigslist, thats probably because no one wants to pay full price on Craigslist. I think member on here Jonnyo got two machines from him one time, maybe he will chime in.
I've dealt with Sean before. I bought a LW3 from him.
I seem to be the only person who likes LW3
His prices are higher than a FSBO sale on CL but not outrageous. It worked 100 percent and he added some tasteful LEDs. No unreturned phone calls. No "someone just offered me 200 more..." crap. No driving three hours or arranging complicated shipping.
Basically, the experience was smooth, but of course, you pay extra for that convenience. Depends on if that's worth it to you or not.

My prices should be the same on all sites except for ebay. I have sold many machines to pinsiders. I will let them speak up if they wish.
Sean
Sean is a reputable seller.
His inventory often consists of the exact games you could buy yourself on CL for less.
He will go over the game and add LED's and make sure it's clean and working before the markup. He usually has a good selection of games available. He will also ship. It is a good service for out of area buyers.
His prices are on the expensive side, especially for those who could just as easily buy the same game from the original sellers and save on the markup.
Sean's a good guy. From what I know, he stands behind his games.

I bought a lovely Whirlwind from him. Good experience. I recommend him.
He lives up to his promise to make sure his machines work well after purchase.

Like with any thing you get what you pay for Sean has always been helpful and will go up and above to help out his customers. He has a business not just some flipper. I could rattle of about five dirt bag flippers in the bay area and Sean is not one of them.
+1 for Sean.
I purchased a pin from Sean when i was a noob and although the transaction was smooth and Sean was pleasant to deal with I doubt I would buy another from him. Now that I have some experience fixing, tinkering and tearing down to the playfield I dont think the additional mark up he charges is worth what he personally adds to the game, IMO.
If you want to pay a premium for a nice, relatively problem free pin I am sure you will be satisfied.
Seems people here are a little upset that he gets the Craigslist deals, fixes them up and sells them.
Isn't that what a business is all about? Nobody here has said a bad thing about the quality of his machines, or his support after the sale.. so it sounds to me like if you want to buy a ready to play machine, he's a good choice.
If you want a deal you can fix up and shop yourself, beat him to them.
Seems pretty simple to me.

My mistake completely. In no way whatsoever did I mean to disparage you if you took it that way. I knew it was one of the big three (pinside, ebay, CL) where I saw your machines listed a little higher, and mistakenly thought it was craigslist. I understand that due to fees you would want to list higher on Ebay.
While I have never dealt with you I have heard from others only positive things, so again, meant no offense and take care.

lw3 fan here. the only game i have sold that i really miss. highly under rated.
I have bought and sold games to Sean before great seller and a very good tech. Buy with confidence and he always stands by his games if you need help with anything. If you ever need help he is always there to help out.

No offense taken. My son does most of the postings and his instructions are to post the same price on all venues except ebay.
