    Quoted from wendyb:

    I am in Eureka ca, no fire here but the smoke is heavy and the shy is a dark orengy haze today and I feel so for those who have been affected by these horrible fires..
    I can't even imagine how devastating it would be to have your whole life's collections burned to ash..

    Hey a Eureka pinsider...awesome! I am from Humboldt and I go to Eureka at least 2 times a year to visit. Play a little golf, hit Angelos pizza , since they seem to have the best arcade left in Humboldt.

    I have a pretty nice Guns N Roses. I would sell or trade. My trade interest(s) are metallica, maybe stnng, possibly others.

    I can get pictures. I haven't yet. (sorry). color dmd, fantastic playfield, cliffys, new titan rubbers, new g ramp, sound system upgrade (I forget which one, pics will tell).

    Quoted from Gorf:

    Does it make u mad????

    I think what makes your local collectors mad about your return is that you have a bad reputation as a seller. I first heard about you Jason Nervo when you sold a fellow Pinsider a T3, sending him pictures of a T3 with no playfield or cabinet wear in really pristine condition. You shipped him a heavily routed pin with playfield wear and cabinet wear around the flipper buttons.

    You refused to buy it back or compensate him in any way in the below forum. He only received the money back for the pin (but not the freight) because he filed a claim with his credit card company.

    Well what you don't know is that I refunded back his money and paid for the game to be shipped back..

    Quoted from Gorf:

    He said it wasn’t voluntary on your side. His credit card company presented the evidence to your bank and your bank withdrew the funds from your account. He was still out the money that he paid the shipper and you had to pay a shipper to get the pin back.

    I’ve heard bad stories about you from local Pinsiders regarding local deals that you have made.

    Most in NorCal know that Gorf is Pinball’s version of Covid. Best to keep a distance and don’t interact.

    #6310 3 years ago

    I've sold and purchased a lot of games locally. I haven't had a lot of luck selling on this platform ,but have sold and purchased many on our local Craigslist. I prefer to sell a game when a person can inspect/play as condition is really in the eye of the purchaser. I've met a lot of great people locally, and most have been great to deal with. I've actually bought a few games from Gorf and he's been fine....yes he asks a lot of $ for some of his games, but maybe he's learned from his past mistakes? If your personally inspecting a game than it removes most of the risk.

    Nope. He was recently selling a BM66 that he claimed was HUO. It had been routed at coinop in SF.

    He has pulled that chicken shit with me as well, and with friends of mine. Bad enough he's a dishonest seller. Verbally threatening Pinsiders via PM who attempt to warn the community about him should be totally unacceptable. Like I asked before, who let him back on Pinside?

    Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

    Like I asked before, who let him back on Pinside?

    I think the moderators; don’t want to get involved due to potential lawsuits for slandering someone’s image by banning them from the site, and as long as he pays to be on the site he’ll probably be allowed to stay.

    There’s a Pinsider named chogard that scammed dozens of people with false claims about his pins, so he created a new account and everyone in IL/IN knows that it’s him but the moderators won’t block him from creating accounts.

    Quoted from genex:

    Free Gold Watch

    Great news !!!

    (I'm not a scientist), but do note that one perk of the design of the FGW space -- is that it has lots of through-breeze as the front side stays open the entire day -- and there's a side door that is frequently open, AND there are tall ceilings, so I mean it's not a tiny closed box at all.

    Eric, please be cautious in the city, don't leave any valuables visible there's a lot of break-ins and try to park the car where you can see it at all times.
    on a different note, if you don't mind me asking, where are you going "up north"?
    The reason I ask is because I have a project pinball that needs to be picked up in Portland .
    Let me know if you are able to pick it up for me please.
    compensation involved of course.

    Best bang for the buck title that everyone should own at least once. If I wasn’t downsizing I’d buy it. Good luck with the sale.
