Take-n advantage of Someone ,,,, Hmmmm !!! If the Person is Stupid and Arrogant,, Hell Yes !!
,,,,, If it's an old lady sell-n her Dead husband's TOTAN ,,, Hmmmm... Hell Yes !! LOL
,,,, But 4-real,,, I Pay Not What it's worth,, But what i think it's worth to me to make a $ on when I decide to sell it.. That's Life... Kinda like the female cow be-low.. She had it coming !!
Quoted from stangbat:What goes around comes around. It is always better to be honest in any situation, but the pin world isn't that big of a place. If you screw people, word gets around. I've been collecting almost a year and I already have a few people I'll never deal with again, and I'll advise others not to either. I know this is a hypothetical question, but don't get yourself placed on a bunch of people's bad lists by being greedy and dishonest. There are always other pins out there.
I agree 100%.. Gett-n a deal is 1-Thing.. Flip-n it in Killer Condition is another..

I know the saying is "an idiot and his money will soon be parted" (or something like that) the problem I have found is the idiots think their trashed BTTF is worth 3K. Or a Batman Forever needing a lot of work will "stay at this price no matter how long it takes to sell". Oh, and there is a guy up north who "knows this Pin is perfect, rare, and works great...because he works on them"..really? Do you know how stupid you sound? I would like to get one over on those guys...idiots!!
Exactly what I was Gett-n at.. I've make Alot of Run's out of State to Fetch a " The Pin is Top Notch " .. and when it's NOT.. The Seller see's my Bad side.. The Price Usually Drop's.. Now ,, when I make a trip like that,, I get the Seller to Put the Phone on Speaker and Fire the Pin up.. If I hear the ERROR sound's.. I get him to open the Door and Press the Black button and do some Test's.. Then we Talk.... Guard Yr-self !!!!
I didn't get that TOTAN ,, It was at my Pin Mech- shop's . I played it off and on for a week.. I didn't like it .. I did offer the Owner $ 2500.00 and pay the Repair bill,, He declined.. He later sold it for $ 2900.00 to a friend of mine.. It reminded me of the ToM that i had.. I got tired of it in a Week.. George Gomez is a Good designer,, but he's NO Pat Lawlor !!!
