Quoted from pezpunk:Reads like an unfunny racist joke to me. Some white idiot pinball person trying to sound black.
Honestly, does anyone seriously talk like that? One of the best ads ever.

I just emailed the seller.
Here is what I wrote,
Thank you for the funny post
It made me laugh.
All my friends who own pinball games and me are having a good laugh.
Thanks again for the funny post.
this just in:
"Oh my god. You are so fool of crap! Best title ever? NOT. One of the last pinballs made? NOT. Pinball manufacturing never came to a halt. Slow down, yes. But stern has been building pins for decades. And $7500 for this game is such a stretch. You must be smoking some jacked up crack!"

Fully restored ROFL!!
The language is a little bit over the top, but I'd buy that for $3100.

This guy can't decide whether he has to sell or not -- it's an awesome read!
1. First offer of $3650 will be accepted.
2. I am not considering offers less than $3200.
3. If you can meet me in the Cleveland, Ohio area I will accept $3100 non-negotiable lowest price.
4. Please send offers -- we can negotiate.
5. I am not in a position where I need to sell this quickly.
#1 will never happen because of #2 an #3. LOL
#3 nullifies #2. (sounds like he's attempting to give a non-shipping price, but it's just not clear)
#4 nullifies #2 and 3, (if by offers he means "below his 3100 rock bottom price")
He could have just gone with, "Asking $3650."
Am I missing something? How can a guy offer 3650, when he tipped his hand that $3100 is just dandy, oh and he'll negotiate...

This guy should end up on Pawn Stars taking $1150 or so.

That's what we call "negotiating against yourself". Literally.

Unfortunately way more often than anyone should.
Quoted from LoserKid_Pinball:" target="_blank">wyoming.craigslist.org link
Who cares what theme or condition it is in. Heck forget the pictures, It's a pinball machine people! Haha if he is a scammer then I don't think he's looking in the right place to scam people
So I ended up getting ahold of this guy to see what pin he had. He got back with me this morning. It's a 1976 Williams Grand Prix for $2,000! I think he added one too many zeros.
We all know there are stupid high prices often on EBay as well. I just laughed at this retarded price for a Pinbot. "Everything Works Except The # 4 Player Light" I assume they may be talking about the player 4 display. I guess I'll wait for a display problem so I could jack up my price by a grand.

OK, I think I shall start taking preorders for these plastic LED filled toppers. How many of you folks are dying to have them at the deep discount price of $3995.00 
So let me get this straight, this almost worthless bingo "pinball" machine is even more rare because it includes non-original rusted metal legs instead of the original wooden legs?
Not only is it NOT Pong, it's not even Atari:
