Thanks for the direction to look
Quoted from jkashani:I am into the Embryon for allot of $$$ and to avoid the price police slander, I am only offering a trade. In this forum I would rather get a title I want in trade rather than selling. Thanks
I understand, GLWTS
Quoted from shacklersrevenge:Roller Coaster Tycoon $2400
plug and play all the way, good condition overall.
Wanted to say Thank You for making our transaction today as simple as ever and for letting the machine go for a price that was reasonable for both of us. My family is enjoying it very much. Happy Holidays!!!

Quoted from Don44:Is it against the rules to offer a pin for trade without posting it in the marketplace?
I think this is why so many pinsiders are using Craigslist to communicate their sales and trades.

^^^^ Do you think maybe you are being a little too harsh or direct. This is a public forum not jr high school. Take a deep breath and relax,we don't want this forum turning into facebook drama.

I'm interested in this game because of the history and condition, but can't find any comps to give an indication if the price is reasonable.
That Mars Trek is pretty overpriced imo, check out the splash page and archived sale ads.

Quoted from Pinash:Did someone on the forum beat me to the facebook Gorgar in Haverhill? Hopefully it doesn't go to a flipper
Not me but a $200 Gorgar only last about 30 mins once advertised and even then it's a rat race against someone who is already driving there with a $300 offer.
You really have to hustle for the deals and live close to get to it fast.

Quoted from clubninja:Interested in trading or selling a Bally 4 Queens single player EM project. Machine is complete and in good shape, but the playfield will need cleanup. When I had it set up, it would not start a game. Would trade for an early solid state project machine, add cash for a non-project game, or sell for $500 obo. Happy to answer questions or take pictures for serious interest. Thanks!
Holy crap, maybe a pinside record.

Quoted from Jestr:My apologies if this goes against policy, please remove as needed. Happy to donate a little more to Pinside if this works out.
Bought a machine that is in the Lunenburg, MA area and had everything ready to go via Michelle at Beltmann. The owner expressed concern that the semi may not actually get to their home (dirt driveway, tree-lined, and slight decline off a main road). Wouldn't have thought about 80-100 feet of driveway would be much a challenge, but it is currently stopping this shipment from working (assuming Beltmann is still making these kinds of things happen). Had a courier lined up as backup, but his business got shutdown. I'd consider making the drive, but I'm a few states away and ones in between have stay at home order. In the past this would have been an "ask some friends and by a case or two of beer" scenario, but I don't know anyone is those parts. I see on the map that there are a few pinsiders in the area like bayoubilly70, moelabby, and ninefingers , but we are of course strangers at this point.
Anyone in the Lunenburg/Fitchburg/Leominster area I could send or PayPal some "beer money" to help move the machine down the driveway to meet the semi? Worst case scenario, taking it to a freight pickup in Leominster? Might be the ravings of a crazy guy in posting this during this unusual times, but thought that it didn't hurt to ask.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
The issue with bringing the machine down the driveway is never knowing when the truck will pick it up. They can tell you 12 to 4pm but that means nothing. As a truck driver, I get there when I get there.
Your best option is to ask if someone local can go get it and then drop off at the shipper(fastenal, r&l or other terminal)

Quoted from mpdpvdpin:Getting out of the game. Take em’ away.

Quoted from silen7ce:Anyone interested in an 1812 I just went through? Full topside tear down. Replaced some coils, both flippers rebuilt, replaced the crypt mech, all new posts, Titans, ghost buster premium leds...replaces the hand with a nicer one. Heart isn’t perfect but works good. Teeth work. New ball shooter assembly.. probably more I forgot! Some wear on the areas that didn’t have factory Mylar and ramps have some cracks that don’t interfere with game, slings also not perfect but rest of plastics are in great shape. Backglass and 3D translite both nice and cabinet is probably a 7-8
Mainly interested in trades.. was a game I’ve wanted forever so I jumped when it popped up but I have too many horror games right now. Also possible I may change my mind and keep so consider this a feeler!

Quoted from HydrogenHuman:Some people don't use Facebook, so I figured posting here would help those who are anti-Zuckerberg (very understandable). I've even been messaged before when I've posted a facebook listing and they've asked if I could contact the person on facebook.
An idea for you since you like sharing Facebook ads, why don't you start your own topic for Facebook ads to share for those that don't do Facebook.

It's local pick-up..if as described when you see it then he gets paid.
Not to difficult, you can always ask to see it before bidding ends. If he says no then ya know to ignore the auction.
