Quoted from richierichpin:Sure. About 20 years ago there was a guy advertising “rarest pinball on earth” and because I read the comic book I thought it would be cool to own. I think it was a business I bought from but honestly don’t remember. My name in no way is trying to imply I am somehow “rich”
It has never been playable but was used on a movie set. In 15 or 16 almost all that was my collection went to auction. It was just a mistake but my rocky was labeled as rocky and bullwinkle and sold for like a grand. My fault as I should have been there but couldn’t that day. Anyways I like oddballs so My collection had some weird stuff back then but I needed money and such is life.
I’m rebuilding now and always loved zacs. I felt fortunate to find Nemo and I think we will work this out. The length of time scares me a bit as what if someone else wants to buy between now and then. Pretty sure he wouldn’t do that after taking deposit but with that much time something beyond his control could happen.
I was talking to a friend from the forum and said back in the day this would be a no brainer as he and I did a 1k miler for some games hockey and some other stuff. Life throws you curveballs. I sympathize with the work but back in the day it was a labor of love. Try getting a cyberball 2000 up stairs on your back with just 2 people
Thanks for the Richie Rich pin details. Always wondered about that one since it's crazy rare and has a coaster on it (I mainly collect coaster pins). Had thought about PMing you, but since you weren't really active on here I didn't want to bother you.
Once you have a set deal I wouldn't worry a bit about Neo selling to somebody else. July will be here before we know it, and 3 or 4 months doesn't seem like much of a wait these days. Anyway, I'm happy to here you're back in a place where you rebuild a super nice collection, and once again I hope it all works out for both of you!
