So many negative c-list seller stories these days I wanted to post a positive one. Friday night an ad popped up for a Bally Flip Flop and a Recel Fiery Thirties $300 for the pair I immediately emailed the seller and told him I would take them called him in the am and explained I had to go out of town for the day and it would be late in the afternoo, the trip ran long and I didnt make to his place till 8:00 pm he held the games despite several vultures that declared they could get there faster or load up quickly due to having a lift gate ect...so there are still good deals and honest sellers out there.

Good for you. It all starts with parents who pass on their good values/morals to their children.....

Yep, along the way, the hobby got very competitive as EM deals begin to dry up. Your scenario has happened to me more than once, but my favorite is going to see a sight-unseen Kings & Queens on an agreed price, and during my travel, the seller still getting emails stating, "Don't sell to him, he's trying to rip you off!" Could've gone the other way upon arriving, but the seller told me, "A deal is a deal," and was happy to be rid of the machine. So...... To the vultures I say, "Ya snooze, ya lose!"

I liked the part about being able to load up quicker due to a lift gate. That's hilarious.
