Quoted from tadowhere:This has been on chi cl for over a year now. some peepz don't get the hint................ they have way overpriced an item. Heck he should pay me to pick this garbage up, I can use firewood
Lol Yeah...I saw it a few months ago or so...but I cant remember the other funny line he had in there. Something about don't even think you're getting the Ms Pacman for $200
Quoted from jibmums:I've been watching a lot of GNC videos the last few days and fully agree. Did Todd do something to piss them off, or do they just feel the need to rag on TNT at every opportunity? Promoting your business by bashing someone else's isn't going to win you any new customers. I enjoy Ray's tech tips and knowledge but the cameraman's endless bashing is tiresome. The constant "you guys suck" overdubs are tiresome. The dog shitting PIP videos are tiresome.
I remember reading somewhere that Todd made a crack about people repairing games in the back of a hardware store...and that's where Rays shop used to be? Someone jump in if I'm wrong on that. But I believe that was a few years ago.
That said I've been watching TNT for awhile now, and haven't heard any shots at GRC.
I've only watched maybe a few GRC videos since their youtube channel got shutdown, and then they had to open another one. Used to watch their videos, it was painful trying to learn about this new hobby, but having to constantly hearing Mike take shots at Todd when Todd wasn't saying a word. Just got tired of his bad attitude.
Ray seems like a nice guy in all the videos I've seen.
Quoted from egyptrus:And this has been going on for quite a while...If I were to take a wild guess, Mr. "WTB ads are a ripoff" is a guy that gets craigslist alerts or notifications and wants to make sure he gets to see any potential "deals" before the WTB guy does.
While even a flaming pile of crap FunHouse would go for more than $500, the guy who's complaining doesn't give us any information about the condition of his game.
I guess we'll see how long this goes on.
Lol, I tried that notification stuff and I constantly got non pinball stuff.
Considering Chicago area was/is the main manufacturing hub of pinball and arcade machines, the selection on CL sucks. Very frustrating.
I've seen more machines on Detroit and even Cincinnati(or somewhere in OH can't remember).
Hard to get another pinball when they're 600 miles away and the wife's chirping "no more games"
Quoted from SLeRiC:sfbay.craigslist.org link
$3500 High Speed!
Maybe the price is higher because of the trivia section included with the ad?
Found some hot deals on Craigslist Detroit Metro...all OBO
Terminator 2 $3400
DE Batman $3250
Sega Independence Day $3000
Nightmare on Elm Street $3800
Looks like the fake car spam has hit Chicago CL...
Between spam and all these WTB ads...ugh
WTB should be in a separate section.

FWIW Seems to be a lot of games on Chicagoland CL right now. Not selling...
I thought you're supposed to get a discount for buying in bulk. Seems like prices multiplied for this one.
The 10 or so ripoff land ads are getting kinda annoying. Thanks
Also think they are too many WTB ads, they should be in separate section.
Quoted from dmbjunky:I hope the new Stern Star Wars comes out and the Data East game lowers in price. I'd like one but not for 3K. I know that's not how it works a lot of times but one can hope.
I'm with you on that!
Quoted from vdojaq:The seller has been reposting that every 2 days for months now.
Lol...I'm not as diligent as I used to be looking at CL. Got tired of not seeing any deals on there, mostly just high priced flippers with their games that aren't selling and want to buy ads(ANNOYING).
There are way better deals on Pinside...IMO (Wish I had some $$$)
Am I wrong?
Now I can't say the prices are outrageous on this ad- but the closing line is hilarious!!
" All prices are firm. Buy all three for $9500 and save $100! "
I hate to post this here because I'd really like to buy this pinball for $1500
But I swear I remember the picture of this same pinball being posted before.
Scam?
Quoted from vdojaq:He was selling both a Fire and a P.O.T.O. at one time. I think he has lowered his price on POTO.
Thanks vdo - Ill have to check the gameplay on youtube- was sure I was going to jump on the Sega MSF but watched a video and the guy yammering "millions" seemed a little annoying.
Brian
One for the price of two!
