    It was brought to my attention from a fellow pinsider who I've dealt with in the past that my Iron Man I had for sale in the marketplace here was being sold on Mr Pinball . The guy is going by the name Melvin James . He is using my pictures and has my wording in the ad. I emailed him and asked for pictures and the pictures he emailed me were my own pictures of my machine and my basement. My machine is currently pending a trade. Do not fall for whatever scam this guy is pulling ! Such b/s we have to deal with this in our little hobby.

    Be sure to report it to [email protected] to have the ad removed and the name/address blacklisted.

    I would just like to clarify that the MET and SM that are for sale in Riverside, Ca on the pinside market place are in fact actual truthful ads for machines that do exist...thank you.

    Yes and life sucks because I'm so close and so broke or I would have gotten your IM and SM already. Damn this life.

    Nothing is sacred anymore when you have to worry about pinball scams.
