If you ever want to sell that pitch and bat let me know. I’ve always wanted to get a 1957 due to Myrtle Beach arcades.
This thing appears more rare than any modern day JJP POTC.
I would offer the game back to the seller at an inflated price, just to help him out and inflated because you have time invested into it. Sometimes having your name bad mouthed behind your backs not worth it. He can obviously turn down that deal which would then solidify you keeping it so you both can move on.
