    Do you have the spirit of a business man with a vision?

    If I had half a million I would certainly have the vision to see that coming a mile away and steer clear.

    #4756 6 years ago

    Given that it's Brentwood, it's a machine that tells you how to get away with murder...OJ style. That could be worth half a mil to some people.

    i made contact just for fun..

    My mom says I cant spent my $50.00 allowance on it with out proof of existance
    she thinks it is overpriced and a scam

    their reply

    well, your mother should know that the first step before making any decision is to study a project, do your homework and talk to the business entity.

    This inventor is a very well known French inventor, and has a track record that speaks for itself.

    This is his not his first invention: this one is a fun invention as it involves games.

    Please don't hesitate to ask any questions.

    Best wishes,

    What if I tip you a hamburger?

    What if I tip you a hamburger?

    Wow, wierd.... and almost illegible. How about this... charge what your worth, if your a decent tech people will pay.

    #4763 6 years ago

    I don't think I could ever trust an independent contractor who quoted me a repair price and then expect to be paid more. Geez. You set your own prices man.

    Quoted from merccat:

    Wow, wierd.... and almost illegible. How about this... charge what your worth, if your a decent tech people will pay.

    WOW! I would suggest that they read their comments back to themselves or use a spell checker before posting. Why would I call someone when they are basically putting you down and assuming you're cheap?

    #4765 6 years ago

    I told that wacko
    "if you want a tip like the hamburger guy, then I will pay $3.85 an hour + tip"

    his reply was I was a cheap #=$%*^@!

    #4766 6 years ago

    I've got a "tip" for him

    Is he kidding even listing that board for sale? Non-working...you think?

    Quoted from pinostalgia:

    It's a little high, unless it is in absolute mint condition. You can usually snag a Genesis for $600 to $1100 tops.

    They are a little hard to find and seem to have gone up a tad because of that but I just bought two recently in project state for around $800 each. Piggy back board replacements from NVRAM.weebly and a bunch of newly pinned connectors and they are both up and running

    It's up to $41.01, I'd bid 42.01 as a goof, but with my luck I'd actually win the damn auction....then what?

    The reserve is probably ridiculous anyway.

    #4788 6 years ago

    I bough a pristine High Speed in 1989 for 500.00, was almost brand, no bat remnants.

    I wonder if the El Dorado is part of the deal.

    if not this guy is bat shit crazy

    I would think about it, but I have a real aversion to shit.

    #4792 6 years ago

    I have been known to make really long drives for games, and I am a sucker for a High Speed project (I have done 2 already) but this one even scares me away...yikes

    #4793 6 years ago

    Anyone want a $2,200 EM project machine, super rare (only 7000 made) 1975 Bow and Arrow. It doesn't work, but not for lack of trying

    Aztec EM & Stars that need repair for $5200

    "Pinball machines games, both work but could use repairs $5200"

    "Pinball machines games, both work but could use repairs $5200"
    cincinnati.craigslist.org link

    I saw this one and almost replied telling the seller he accidentally added an extra zero to the price, but even $520 is a stretch for non-working, in my opinion.

    I believe I have twice passed up separate offers of Aztec for free, and my Stars was purchased for $200 non-working, so that's my basis for comparison.

    #4796 6 years ago

    kansascity.craigslist.org link

    "I have seen these go for 4,000+ online..."

    So here's my beat up one with a missing plastic and broken backglass for $1500.

    Gotta disagree, Aztec is a great player's game. Love ripping that spinner! Feel free to send all your free ones my way

    Quoted from aahgo:

    I never said it was a bad game. I've never played. I wasn't into EMs when I had the offers. Just saying the value of it in my limited experience is "free".
