    Required?

    I don't know. What about "proper etiquette"?

    As a buyer I'm not buying without movies, period -- whether they are public or privately sent.

    But I am not sure we need Robin and the mods to police this, (or make it a requirement of the forum software to test whether there's a movie attached to for sale ads)

    I think it can fall under 'good etiquette' and the price police can handle the task from there...

    Price Police: "Where's your movie, a$$hole !??"

    Quoted from PinKopf:

    Taking a decent video can be a pain in the ass, IMO.

    youtube embeds

    Good point. There is that little tiny hurdle of setting up a youtube channel, but once you do it... It's cakewalk to upload vids when you need to.

    Man... everyone with pinball machines freakin owes it to the world to have a youtube channel where you post vids of your games and fixes!!!

    Share your passion on youtube!!!

    Quoted from PinRob:

    pics of grandma, no pics of grandma.

    He's right -- we have our expectations set WAYYY too high. Hell, we don't even need the title of the machine or an asking price...

    "Pinball machine for sale." -- that's really all we need!
