I don't have anything to do with this, just passing on what I hope is a great deal for someone - you can pay me a "finder's fee" later!!

Quoted from bigdaddy07:Almost assuredly a scam. Someone that can do cash and carry can dip their toes to make sure.
+1 look at the capitalized words in the ad. Someone trying to out those who flip machines by my read.

I replied about an hour and a half later after it was posted and the seller got back to me and told me it was spoken for already.

LOL good catch!
Oh man! If this is for real what a find! I only live about thirty minutes from this place...wish I would have caught this one.
Now we have a new current value for MM.

Its not real, its a scam. Same scam done monthly in other areas, different game, always desireable. I guess some weirdos get off on that.
Finally realistic prices these games should be going for no more than 4 to 5 thousand tops.
Or spend three thousand more and get a superior game.

I agree! I called their bluff. I immediately contacted the seller who never got back to me. I guess I shouldn't of told them that I live close and could do a cash and carry today.
Oh well, was hoping for the best - ex-husband, pin sitting in basement. Just trying to be a good PinSider........... 
Have a great weekend everyone!

Email or phone call? not sure why I care - it's my nature to want some kind of justice brought upon scammers but they usually take care of that themselves

I think the truth is somewhere in between...

MIA - YOU ARE PUT ON NOTICE FLIPPERS!
Quoted from boostedskex:I just received a response email. It reads:
SOLD YESTERDAY for $9,500. Couldnt't believe it. IT was in really nearly perfect shape. Some guy named Hep or Hup had done work on it a few years ago.
Now this is funny!
Ok that puts this to rest definite Troll add!

case closed - I'm surprised it didn't come with a Shasta
Quoted from Concretehardt:Ok that puts this to rest definite Troll add!
I have to agree. I too received the sold e-mail for 9.5k. I thought, selling at 2.6k and having it sell for 9.5k sounds to good to be true for the seller. I mean, what luck to have somebody respond so quickly(had to have been the first) and offer nearly four times the asking price. Troll add is right!
