Quoted from TheOnlyest:I paid a the going rate average for a Hurricane that was supposedly a clean working game in excellent condition.. It turned out to be a complete turd, and now i'm badly upside-down
What happened? Did you not look at the machine? Kinda hard to buy a turd if you do your due diligence.
Quoted from TheOnlyest:Thought I did... bought from a Pinsider with a stellar 4-year reputation for selling over 100 machines. Gave him the benefit of the doubt based on endless recommendations, I bought it with only seeing some low-res pics that I was texted by the seller. Most of the issues were not visible in pics. You cant tell the translight disc motor is toast in a picture. You cant see battery acid damage in a backbox pic taken from 3 feet away, AND I was specifically TOLD "boards look good". All 3 unobtanium ramps were demolished in spots that were not noticeable in the pics, etc etc etc. So lesson learned, don't trust anybody, don't believe anyone's opinion, and don't buy any machine without seeing it with my own eyes or at least seeing a ton of VERY high-res high quality photos!
That sucks.... It happened to me as well...Lesson and my earlier message was neither YOU or I did proper due diligence. Got to give these pins a full anal inspection these days. I promised myself I would never do it again but I found that I have done it again. I've been lucky. Sorry to hear your story.
