I have ads on craigslist, mr.pinball, and this site looking for a bs dracula for the ballpark of 1300 bucks. one guy e-mailed me saying he had one for 1200 (PERFECT!), then hasn't e-mailed me again. i asked where he was so i could come pick it up and said i was very interested etc. no luck yet. i was wondering if anyone in the ct area maybe had a hot insider tip on where to pick one up for that price range. not sure what to do about the guy who e-mailed me either, its not like he asked for my $ then didn't respond, he offered me his drac,(sent a picture even!), i said yes, then he didn't respond? what should i do/does anyone have any info on a drac out there for 1300ish? thanks alot this is indeed a conundrum!

unfortunately, i have no phone number for the guy just an e-mail. hopefully dracula will bless (or curse) my home soon. but i just thought it was really weird that someone would contact me about selling, then not say anything else!

sorry to keep the dead post alive (is it undead?) but i've recieved word from a guy overseas saying he's got a drac for 1000-1200. the correspondence is as follows:

hello my very good friend the demand you are asking of is in my stock
so if you would love to be interested so just email me back hope to
here from you very soon.

My response:hey adam (or is it robert?) great to hear you've got a drac. as long as its working i should have no problem paying in that range for it. let me know where you/the game are located so we can meet up and make this deal happen. thanks alot -john

Good day I got your mail and I need
You, to Please send me an email if you agree with this pictures.
And i am located at United Kingdom.

My response:if you are located in the uk that means shipping is going to be involved which i had greatly hoped to avoid. i just wanted to locally pick up a dracula as to inspect it and pay cash instead of wiring money and hoping for the best. unless you're planning on coming to the states with your drac it seems as though this deal won't work out. thanks again -john

Good day Mr. John Esposito. I got your mail, and I understand that you
are afraid of the shipping. I will help you for that, if you will work
with me. You are to come up with the part of the fund, and then I will
ship the goods to your door step. Then you will pay the reaming part
of the fund. All I need is trust. Every thing is perfectly alright
kindly advice price includes delivery you can afford for it.

so i feel like this is likely some kind of scam, i didn't expect to get that last email from him, i thought it was done. plus i just had an ad on craigslist saying i wanted a drac for that price and i live in ct and could drive. does anyone in the uk know this guy? adam roberts, or robert adams? if not i'll prob just tell him to forget it and that i don't trust shipping

that was my thought with his 2nd email, i like cash transactions and picking up machines i can see so everyone is happy. whatever $ i send him i'll never see again. most scams have never contacted me they just sit there and i laugh at them. hunt for drac continues.

i don't care about cab fade, just want a good playing bs dracula for 1000-1300 or so. i pretty much said anything in the tri state area, into eastern penn, or southern maine! so about 6 hours away. surprised nothing has come up yet.

the main issue would be distance, but i could go to 1400-1500, those are definitely worthy upgrades! i am definitely interested, but don't want to push you to sell at all. doing business with a fellow pinsider is surely an ease off my mind as well. you can pm me with whatever you decide and by the way, i told the clown in the uk NO WAY!

yeah it looks really nice, i sent you my regular e-mail so we can make a deal without clogging the forum. look forward to hearing from you and thanks again.
