Quoted from Sheprd:

Looks like the guy is operating on to Facebook now...

Now he is screwing people on Pinside for an extra 100...

what a tool

Jeez this guy is like herpes. Still my all time favorite thread title, no offense OP.

Yeah, seen this earlier today and knew it was him. HUO????? Hahahaha.

Replying so this shows on the next page, too. Prick's name is Kevin Honaker on FB

I'm loving some "my lard play field"

Lol!

I would hope so. After all, he is THE reason this thread even exists. I really hope anyone new to Pinside is reading it as well.

None taken, always been happy that it still gets bumped. Goal was to expose someone who was legit taking advantage of people. I've gotten a a half dozen pms from people over the years who have avoided Kevin as a result of this thread. Mission successful

Amen. I'll try to remember to bump this thread whenever I see one of his ads.

Read that a dozen times and had no clue what he was trying to say... Doesn't know how to spell Mylar... Duh!!! I bet the lard makes the playfield slick! That's old school for sure

#412 7 years ago

Maybe this has been addressed earlier in the thread, maybe not, but oldpinballer has sold two pins on Pinside and has gotten two positive feedbacks. One in March 2016 and one in May 2016. How do you flag that for someone who has not seen this thread?

https://pinside.com/pinball/community/pinsiders/oldpinballer/feedback#1063

#413 7 years ago

He has 5 active adds. I've been keeping an eye on the Strange Science add mostly as a price check point since it's a game I'm interested in. Was hard for me to believe it's HUO or been a well maintained game when it looks like it's sitting in a garage... plus a crazy asking price based on previous pinside adds.

I think at a minimum his pinside username should get added to this thread title as a buyer be cautious check.

#415 7 years ago
Quoted from Sheprd:

Doesn't know how to spell

Can't take pictures worth a damn either. I love that this thread still gets bumps.

#416 7 years ago

every game he's ever picked up is huo according to him!

#417 7 years ago

He thinks coming out of this barn would be a home use location

He's a winner

Don't judge. Winters get long in the midwest.

I just had to read this post to find out WTH choggared meant

Any thought of leaving neg feedback? On his profile it shows he has a 100% positive feedback rating.

#425 7 years ago

Love the quote at the end of the Punchy the Clown ad, too:

“I get the cyst was shipping please call 309-631-7136”

"I can assist with shipping" usually works better. Nobody wants a cyst.

Because you can't leave negative feedback unless they let you. Makes sense, right?

Choggard was the Gorf of a few years ago, if I remade this thread these days it would read, "I got gorfed by a guy in rock island "

Quoted from pinbuoy:

When i made this post originally, there was no feedback system, posts like this were the only way to call people out on shady transactions. I believe the way the feedback system is structured now, you can only receive negative feedback if you allow the person to leave feedback. Voluntary (unsolicited) feedback can only be positive. I agree with the others that its a bad system, Robin has mentioned in a different thread that hes working on changing it. Once he does we should all pitchfork this fuck and downvote him into oblivion

WTF does gorf mean? Must be a Cali thing!

Quoted from emkay:

ummmm, nope !

#432 7 years ago

Maybe the new term should be "Choggorfed"?

#433 7 years ago

Wow...Somehow I missed this the first time.

I thought Gorf was banned? Why is he back?

I remember this guy was the talk of PAGG a couple of years ago. Another friend of mine got burned on the offer to crash at his house.

Bonus negative points for being an ass to PracticalSteve.

#434 7 years ago

After ALL that, Gorf's back? I don't even know what to say.

Sometimes Pinside is really awful.

Quoted from emkay:

100% positive feedback too, need to add him to the list of people to bury with negative feedback once that becomes an option. The current system seems almost counterproductive.

#436 7 years ago

We generally do not discuss moderation decisions regarding individual members. Each matter is addressed on a case-by-case basis. Robin made a decision to give Gorf a second chance and allow him back on Pinside after extensive discussions, and that is the extent to which we will discuss Gorf's status. If anyone has questions or concerns regarding Gorf, please open a moderator feedback to discuss the situation with the Pinside Team. Any further discussion in this thread will be considered off-topic, will be removed, and the poster will be ejected.

I kicked the guy out of my Midwest group last year for his scamming HUO pins. Guy sent proof it was a routed game.

With so much bad history from this seller leonml I think it would be best to find another Dude to party with.

This is the "Valley" version of Dr Dude per the listing. It was the knock off version. Thats why it has those 'special' sling plastics.
