Great guy and great seller..
Yep David...I have known him for years almost as long as I have been collecting..He has always treated me well and he delivered it to me which is awesome, I am out with a back injury so I greatly appreciated not having to find someone to pick it up..
It's sad really. I was kind of a jerk to him years ago when I first got into the hobby. I totally wish the whole situation never transpired. He probably doesn't remember, but sorry. I had a deal completely done with him, and he had the pin loaded and was heading to my place, and I bought a WH2O from someone else instead. Total douche move on my part. I called him later that year about another pin, and he said he wouldn't deal with me. I understand why.

Really that doesn't sound like him..he is a pretty nice guy but of course I don't know the whole story of what transpired..
Take good care of it for me. Because when you want to "dump it", I might be able to help you out if you'll give me the pinsider best buddy discount. Get rid of the Christmas tree LEDs first though.
That's basically it, I don't want to make him sound bad at all. He was nice to me, angry but very nice. I'm sure I could do dealings with him now. I was pretty young, and I know it's just business. I just haven't is all.

who are you??
I've done many deals with David too and have always been very satisfied. He stands behind the pins he sells and helped me out numerous times when I was still wet under the ears and had no clue what I was doing.
Quoted from shacklersrevenge:I have dealt with him over a dozen times- That was my RBION and it was HUO from where I got it. Cleanest rbion I've seen
Aw yes it is your initials on the high scores I now have to beat...it is a beauty that is for sure cab and playfield are beautiful..looks brand new..I will let ya know when your score is beaten lol
I got my ver first pin from David years ago...still have it my STTNG!
Hes a good good guy and he will help you out if he can. I usually give him a list of what I am looking for if I am in the market for something first and then do a shout out on the forums.
I have had nothing but good experiences with him
Quoted from gweempose:Congrats on the RBION! It's a great game that requires a lot of strategy to maximize your score.
Any tips on strategy?
The grid is one of the keys to big scoring. You really have to plan out when to shoot the left ramp in order to light either light something from the A column or something from the B/C column. Ideally you want to stack the rewards you get from the grid with multiballs. For example, both Road Trip and 2X Playfield are very lucrative right before starting multiball.
It's really not an easy pin as far as the modes go. To get to Atlantis requires you to make all your shots in the modes. Some are easy, most are hard. More than likely, you're going to go around the horn to get them all done, but that's what I found fun about the pin. Atlantis is a nice reward.
Quoted from shacklersrevenge:i don't think they were too big- I know I got to Atlantis, which took some doing
did you get his BSD??
You are the fourth person I can think of who recently sold their Ripleys after owning it for a very short time. Didn't like it, or just chasing something else?

I was waiting for you Greg to join in...I don't have to sell and am still playing the heck out of it..I want to have my house painted but no hurry..
Quoted from kwiKimart:Seems like everyone's selling RBION here in SoCal. I've seen about 4 FS/FT ads for RBION on all the SoCal CL's.
I think just me and another guy..his isn't huo..
I will fly out and paint your house...
Or better yet, paint it yourself and keep the pin..
you could shave a chimp and teach him how to paint a house...
I know you guys can do it. !
SAVE THE RIPLEYS !

That's funny...there is petty much no way I can paint the outside and inside by myself..I wish I could..I just got a wild hair and thought it should be done..it will probably pass and I will keep the Rips..besides the 1812 would be lonely..
Quoted from PNBLWZD:Paint what? Your house looks like brand new!
Okay stalker when have you been to my house??
