Quoted from bellbrand:No one here offered me anything close to my asking price he bought it for almost the same as what I paid. Sorry if this makes everyone mad but I am not the only one here that has sold a pin to a flipper. I feel bad enough about it without it being discussed here.
To be fair to Lisa, she had if for sale here for quite a while before she finally let it go to the flipper.
FS: Shrek in excellent condition for $4300. I'm not the original owner but it looks like it's HUO.

I'm in Northern California but will be driving to San Diego to visit family at the end of December and can probably deliver along the route.

Quoted from dapperdan24:Hahaha! Wow, I is a bit slow Edited the post to actually make sense. That made me laugh. Thanks for the heads up gents!
No worries. I clicked on your avatar, saw the two games in your collection, and it was perfectly clear. 
Quoted from BobC:That being said...my experience has been that many people are in fact not aware of their machines as much as you might think for various reasons, their perceptions and descriptions are subjective...
I'm guilty of this. Sold a Fathom I knew had been touched up in the center of the playfield and let the buyer know this. I was surprised when the buyer showed me the great job he did repainting the area above the upper rollovers. Some of the artwork had been painted over black. I had never noticed that area wasn't original.
I knew the guy I bought it from and he was super anal when it came to touch-ups. He did such a good job on the touch-ups in the center of the playfield it didn't occur to me to look for wear in an unusual area.
Quoted from uncivil_engineer:It seems like TSPP and Judge Dredd are coming out of the woodwork right now. I am in the market for a TSPP, but the prices are north of what I want to pay for one.
IMO, TSPP gives you a lot of machine for the money compared to what's coming out these days.
Quoted from jwwhite15:Hey that is cool, we trust the same person. Myself is a great person...deserves a lot of respect too!
I wholeheartedly disagree!
Quoted from dsuperbee:If it was indeed restored by CH then the price is right in line.
"Chris Hutchins does incredible work this Fun House will rank right there maybe nicer if thats possible, it is gorgeous..."
I read that as it wasn't restored by CH but is just as nice.
Quoted from Coindork:That’s auctions for you though. Sometimes auction prices can be replicated, sometimes not.
You can have special circumstances we’re two bidders go at it and things get crazy.
I remember going to an auction years ago. Was a bit disillusioned when I noticed owners bidding on their own machines.
Many of the games were won by the owners when the bid price didn't get high enough for them. Later learned this is called a "buy back" and is common.
Quoted from zh2oson:This seems...ethically questionable, but I guess if they pay the buyer's premium and sales tax, the auction house is happy. Plus, having a reserve would actually decrease the chances that some of these things sell which hurts the auction house.
What a world.
Can you imagine eating $750 on a $3,000 game of yours that you have buy back?
The owners didn't have to pay sales tax and buyers premium, just a small fee to buy the games back.

Quoted from WizWiggy:I will be posting my Barracora Walking Dead re-theme on the SF Bay Area CL very soon! It is currently in the Showroom at The Flipper Room in Concord. We are about an hour north of CAX if anybody wants to check it out. I'm asking $4800. Thanks.
That is very cool. Can't wait to see how you turned a Walking Dead into a Barracora.
