Part of what problem? Am I not allowed to wish a fellow pinsider good luck with their sale? The cabinet color does look nice with no fade. If you get moderated often then you might be the problem. But I'm sure your 50% downvotes ratio has nothing to do with it.

He probably means the problem of these game continuing to rise in price. FT is not a 5K game. GLWS is often used in vain when someone posts a game at an inflated price. Not sure which was going on in this case. You could pick up FT for under a grand all day when I started collecting. I know it has risen in value, but this one isn't even fully functional and is already priced above Pinside price guide.
Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:He probably means the problem of these game continuing to rise in price.
So I am the reason the games keeps rising in price? I wasn't aware I personally had that much impact on the hobby.
Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:FT is not a 5K game.
People can post whatever price they want and nobody is forcing buyers to pay those prices. I am not part of the problem since I am not paying these prices. Sellers are not part of the problem either they don't dictate the market price. The market will decide whether or not this sales and if it sits too long then the seller will get the message. So if anything it's buyers who are the "so called" problem paying these inflated prices.

I paid under 1K for my BSD and under 2K for my TZ which is clearly not the case today so what's your point.

Maybe my GLWS was being being sincere or I was being sarcastic but regardless it doesn't warrant me being called the problem.
(puts on good guy hat)
Here ya go bud, these are all the recent sales:
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/archive?s=1&ad_machine_key=183
use this to compare relative prices and conditions. Good luck!
There have been a lot of brand spanking new members joining just to post games for sale.
They assume everybody here loves pinball, but nobody here knows value.
Apart from the price, the pictures are simply pathetic. Remove the glass, take high res close up detailed pics. And with good light.
Pics in a dark room illuminated by the game from a distance are terrible and represent a lazy seller.

he's right, you are part of the problem. thats why prices are where they are.

How am I the problem if I'm not paying these absurd prices? I was also being sarcastic in my first post. GFY

How do you know that cab color looks nice? You only see a bit of the front and none of the sides
Quoted from RTS:...Pics in a dark room illuminated by the game from a distance are terrible and represent a lazy seller.
Or a lawn chair rookie who’s never sold a game before.
Quoted from captainadam_21:How do you know that cab color looks nice? You only see a bit of the front and none of the sides
I was being sarcastic because of the lack of pictures. I swear some of you are way to serious.
It doesn't sound anywhere near sarcastic when you tell someone to eat a big bag of dicks. Reminds me of an eight year old that loses his temper when things don't his way. It seems like you could really use a dose of anger management. Of coarse, you will most likely point the finger elsewhere >>> It's just hard to believe that grown adults act this way. Just pathetic!
I lowered the price and make me an offer. And I will be posting new pics soon. Someone gave me ways too take pics.

Yet it's ok for adults to accuse me of being the reason for high prices when that could not be further from the truth. It's amazing how the bully and mob mentality is ok when new sellers post something above market price and everyone piles on. GorillaBiscuits was at least nice enough to point them in the right direction and take the high road. Like I said before, the market will dictate the price and when there is no interest the seller will lower it however I'm sure all the price police will pat them self on the back thinking they had something to do with it.
Im new to selling my machine, I just put a price. And will take offer. Thanks to you all for the help.

I was going to say something but I think you sumed it up perfectly .
No harm in testing the waters , you can always lower the price but you can't raise it .
Wow, this ad got crazy fast!
Someone local might take the time to go look at it.
Definitely get more and better pics posted.

Oh, IF (and that’s a stretch) the OP is not a fake account, then I’m pretty sure she has a camera. A google search of the names Danyel Pueblo and Danyel Mulligan revealed some interesting vids...

Interesting to say the least
I’d recommend that the buyer wipes down the shooter rod before playing

I was just moderated for NOT REPORTING your bag of dic** post, and replying with a comment, about how you blatantly stole a Louis C.K. bit, without giving him proper credit.
So your theory about my moderation, or up/down votes percentage, is moot. The moderation criteria is flawed on its very best day, and up/down votes are generally tied, to an emotional opinion of any particular post or poster.
Quoted from elcolonel:you blatantly stole a Louis C.K. bit, without giving him proper credit
Louis C.K said "suck" instead of "eat" so if you are going to accuse of plagiarism make sure to have your facts right. A quick google search will show that saying has been around well before Louis C.K. used it. I've never seen any of his skits so I didn't blatantly steal his material. However I am sure when Louis reads this thread he will be upset with me for not giving him proper credit.
The OP probably felt abused and embarrassed and removed the ad.
I don't think the OP was a scammer, just unfamiliar.

Great Idea!!I also think paying a small fee to put up an ad would weed out some crap.

Both are terrific ideas! Therefore they won’t happen.

Id like optional filters as we wishlist games to avoid email spam from these listings.

I can add nothing to your self immolation.
Quoted from elcolonel:...about how you blatantly stole a Louis C.K. bit, without giving him proper credit.....
Wait, are you trying to say Louie CK invented "eat a bag of dicks?"
Quoted from elcolonel:I was just moderated for NOT REPORTING your bag of dic** post, and replying with a comment,
I was as well and told threads are not the place for PM's which makes no sense since I see people go back and forth all the time. The ad was removed from this thread hours ago so there really is nothing to discuss anymore except bags of dicks.
Quoted from elcolonel:The moderation criteria is flawed on its very best day,
Can't argue that and we finally agree on something.

The seller did pay a fee in the form of donation yesterday.
Quoted from RTS:Pinside might benefit with a 30 day waiting period for new members to post an ad
There might be a waiting period unless you are verified which is likely why they made as donation.
