    I've gotten a few and it's never bothered me. I'd just say if you don't get a response or just get a "no thanks" just let it go. I haven't done it but I'd be prepared to pay a premium...if I don't have a game listed for sale there's probably a reason

    Quoted from curban:

    ...there is. I posted the “Looking for...” in that topic three times in past several months for this machine with no luck, but that approach did get me a nice Fishtales a couple of years ago that I still cherish.
    Also have a WTB add out. I have doubts about how effective those are; they seem pretty easy to miss and seem to sit open for a while. But I figure they can’t hurt; it’s the beauty of pinsides marketing system.
    All good suggestions. Thanks.

    Posting in your local FS thread and the owners thread of the game you're looking for may help. When I was looking for a SlugFest I posted a quick note in the Ohio and PA threads that I was looking for one and someone reached out the next day that they had one and I went and picked it up.
