this guy wants to trade all of his Donald Trump collection , including toilet paper for a Pinball machine tampa.craigslist.org link
Right? & its priced at a premium $ because of the historical importance of the year in which it was made
Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:My guess is PPS to whom he does not know anyway.
I was thinking that he was referring to Rick from the Pawn Stars show
Quoted from ToucanF16:Is that your CL ad or did you just stumble upon it? Funny nonetheless! I've watched that guy's ads for years and followed comments about him on the forums. I'm surprised anyone ever buys from him. Some poor suckers are certainly getting ripped off!
not my add Bro just saw it while searching & thought it belonged here
saw this one this morning & contacted him immediately !!! but alas he listed it wrong its a King Cool not a King Kong /////// edit he must have fixed it & added pic. maybe he saw that I posted it here ?
this was posted on The Village BBS thought it was pretty funny so posting it here ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: A guy nearby was advertising 5 pins on craigslist so naturally I call him up.
Ok first of all most of the games suck from the get go, but the details are the great part.
A Black Pyramid that is missing the back glass but he replaced it with a sheet of plexi he painted blue.
A Kings of steel that he crashed his car into in his garage damaging the front and the legs, but he made new legs out of wood and painted them with fluorescent paint.
A Stern "Pinball" that was missing a bunch of inserts so he fiber glassed PENNIES into the insert holes
A Williams darling that had a rusty ball in it that wore all the paint off the play field.
Last of all a Gottlieb Genesis that he won off eBay that he " has to get 4000 dollars" for.
Unfortunately no pics?.
Ya gotta love Craigslist!
Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:Check out the playfield, he rates it as a "B" quality rating.
You cannot properly wax bare wood.
Quoted from vdojaq:Yeah, but that is a great price on that machine!
I agree completely!! .... I just found humor in the ebay price comparison
Quoted from Bugsy:Nice topper on the Street Fighter
not only does it have a sweet "topper" on the back box but the playfield glass has a "stacker"
I actually drove over 2 hrs. one way to look at this game last weekend because its one I am very interested in owning ....... its rough, Very rough playfield even has signs of planking on All places without mylar he turned down my offer of $1900.oo & I am glad he did because minutes later I felt like I had dodged a bullet by even offering that much ....... the original listing didn't read exactly like this he has relisted it & I love how he spelled the word Cheap
Quoted from wayout440:It's great to know that with a couple hundred bucks in LEDs I can more than double the value of my Secret Service.
ebay.com link » 1988 Data East Secret Service Pinball Machine Leds Shopped Spy Theme 499 Ship
Ha ha ha I actually contacted this dude because I am interested in the title & he is somewhat local so I made an offer on his Ebay add for $1800.00 & asked if it had the topper because its cropped out of his pictures ... offer was auto rejected but he then came back & offered to sell it to me for 2999.00 & he said topper is missing
Quoted from Atari_Daze:Did someone relocate from Ephrata ?
If they ask to borrow an Escalara, DONT DO IT.
I thought the same thing when I saw the way he included the "Thanks for looking & your SUPPORT" part
Quoted from thechakapakuni:Seems Legit

Quoted from LeMansFan:I smell a scam…
