    New member posts for sale ad with no list of the games he's selling for his "brother". Says he took video of the playfields... clciked through the first few pics.. nothing odd then this one of a "congo" that's clearly a 3-D rendering. Just giving a heads up

    And you post a link to a KISS for sale?

    I find it hilarious how they think photoshopping a camera "recording" overlay will make people think it's real, because we all know digital cameras include those in the pictures they take!

    I have a buzz on waiting for Pintastic tomorrow. Ad says - (248) 762-4258

    Another Michigan scammer?

    I like the profile of the "Pinsider" who left positive feedback for the seller.
    Shows that he owns Pinball Circus and Magic Girl. Impressive.......

    This jackass did the same thing with a TSPP. Didn't give too many details, and yet was selling based on a very crappy video of the playfield. He's obviously scamming.
