I’m not this kind of person but I feel he took advantage of me and my time. I removed extra informatjon like his email and stuff that isn’t necessary to show what went on.
Please note he disclosed that some parts weren’t installed after we agreed on a 4,500 deal.
I’ll post one by one.... I’m in blue

I agree with the other posts you dodged a bullet. He should have required his preferred payment method or nothing but he led you on.
I sometimes don’t know who to blame in these scenarios the seller or the buyer probably knowing he is undercutting someone. In the end the seller should be respectful or will be blacklisted by some. I have had some things promised to me and not delivered. It’s cool though I now know to never help out or buy from seller again.
Good luck man you’ll find one in better shape.
I would be totally cool had he been upfront about it and told me straight up instead of not answering my call and texts for over 2 hours. I must admit the excitment of finally getting my BSD got the best of me. I should have know something was up when he failed to answer my call and texts
Quoted from cosmokramer:Where is the OP? I would like to hear how he tries to spin this...
There’s no spinning this. I got the full text exchange
Quoted from KornFreak28:Radio silent for over an hour

Damn that is DIRTY. Game is overpriced so you saved yourself some cash anyway but damn that guy did you dirty
Had this happen to me a few times. Just about everytime I ended up better off not getting the machine. Usually i got something better. Chin up the next one will make you forget all about this!
Quoted from Alamo_Pin:KornFreak, if you can wait a few months (until my ACNC gets here), I would be willing to sell you my BSD. Nice example, but not perfect. ColorDMD, Pinsound, LEDs, Cliffys, Tombstone mod. Price would be way less than this one. I’m just not quite ready to let it go, yet.
Awesome! I’ll be ready for it
Quoted from Djshakes:Man, I don't get it. Are BSD's that much now.
Since I'm an owner, I hope so!!!!!!!!!!!! Ready to be part of the "I'm selling my pin way overpriced because I can and I know you'll pay it" crowd. (not really, but damn the prices some people on Pinside pay....makes me wonder....)
Quoted from djsolzs:In the end the seller should be respectful or will be blacklisted by some.
Yep - I'll vouch for that. He's done in my book.
Quoted from Djshakes:Man, I don't get it. Are BSD's that much now.
I’m going to say not quite, because I’m going to put mine on the market for 4K soon. Great game, but 7 years is enough BSD games played to hit that “meh” feeling.
Quoted from LTG:Don't No deal is always better than a bad deal. Rejoice in dodging a bullet.
LTG : )
Thanks!
Is no one going to bring up the fact that he didn’t disclose that half the restoration hadn’t even been completed until after the deal was made?

Cash On Glass.
KornFreak28 thank you for sharing this with us. It strengthens my views regarding pinball sales in the future.
Cash On Glass
Stop hiding shitburger. Come in front of the jury and explain yourself.
I hope the extra cash you got was worth screwing your reputation.
Better have been a big ass TV and like, 2 bulldogs.
Plus the other side will usually throw the thread into a completely unseen weird direction.

Cash On Glass
You are welcome! Although I agree with you that there is nothing better than cash on glass, BSD’s are pretty rare these days and cash on glass may not be always an option. Last time I let the hype get the best of me.

BSD= Stockholm Syndrome the Pinball.
I don't miss mine. Yet.
Where’s the seller? No response?
This should warrant a removal of his account here. No more ability to sell through this site.
seller knows hes done wrong! there literally is no response apart from sorry i screwed you over! but people who usually do this shit aint the sorta people to say sorry either
Bought a machine from this seller last year with 0 issue. I put a deposit down with paypal then paid the rest in cash later that week. He drove an hour to meet me outside of St Louis so I didn't have to go through traffic. My experience was very positive overall.
Quoted from New_England:Is no one going to bring up the fact that he didn’t disclose that half the restoration hadn’t even been completed until after the deal was made?
Agree totally, what a dick move to disclose all that needs to be done after an agreed sale and he only dropped $100 for that! Again KornFreak28 you got the better end of this deal. Like I said early on in this post, through this all you will find a great BSD that you will enjoy more at a better deal.
Sooooooooooo... basically this guy is never making a sale on Pinside ever again.
Still baffled by the insert wear and $4700 price tag. Thing was NOT worth that.
Quoted from High_End_Pins:Whirlwind cabinet has dried overnight and reached the desired gloss level. [quoted image][quoted image]
I can unmask the floor now and screen the back of the head.
[quoted image][quoted image]
Perhaps High_End_Pins is trying to salvage this thread, or perhaps he posted in the wrong one, but either way, nice to see a beautiful Whirlwind in the works
Quoted from High_End_Pins:Lol!
I have no idea how I did that.
Might have been a thread just above or below mine and these damn fat fingers and gloves hit the wrong one.

You have to focus trinity
1B733D01-25D8-47F0-923C-D5137C77FC9A (resized).jpegJust had a similar deal for a WH2O. Told the seller I'd take it for his asking price. We agreed that he'd hold it for 2days so I could get over his place to pick it up. Offered to send a deposit and he said not necessary. Kept texting him that I had the money and was ready to head down to get it. Crickets.... He finally texted me that someone came by and offered him $200 more so it was gone. BULLSHIT. I called him out on it and he offered me a discount on some slot machines he was selling. Told him to fuck off.
