    I think MM is just a dick . . .

    I'd call the IRS not the police . . .

    unless, of course, you were to rip off the cash to purchase them with in the first place . . .

    . . . probably wouldn't add that to the book though.

    Quoted from sturner:

    If you had a legitimate edge on the lottery and were capable of pulling in huge returns, you wouldn't write a book and tell others how to do it. That causes you to lose your edge.
    Anyways, some MIT students figured out how to game a particular lottery years ago. I'm highly skeptical you could create a positive return long term on scratch-off tickets.

    Quoted from bronco-jon:

    He no longer has a registered Ebay account.....not under the "Mad-Amusement" name anyway

    maybe his account has been changed to " *pinballparts* (6244 ) "

    Quoted from MRudowsky:

    Ugh, wish I'd seen this sooner. Yep, just placed an eBay order with *pinballparts* for a BDK crane scoop protector. The PayPal receipt says MAD Amusements. 100% positive feedback. Fingers crossed?

    keep 'em crossed . . .

    It looks like mad has dropped his e-bay store & e-bay selling activities.

    Maybe just another seller name change, but no working link from his web site . . .

    #789 7 years ago
    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    Huh? His account is still open and items are still listed.

    under what seller name ?

    #791 7 years ago
    Quoted from Coyote:

    Ref thread title, 'pinballparts'.

    I still find no items for sale under that name, maybe I am searching e-bay incorrectly . . .

    . . . check for yourself.

    #801 7 years ago

    I am searching through ebay.com, always do.
    It's a given that I have been blocked by Mad.
    Even if I click on the e-bay link on his site, it comes up blank for e-bay listings.

    #803 7 years ago
    Quoted from Mitch:

    I haven't been blocked and I still can't see them. Ebay uses your IP adresse to block you from some USA only sellers.
    It sucks because there are tons of reputable US vendors on ebay canadians can't see. I find this alot when I have wanted ads on pinside for parts and people say its on ebay but I can never find it because I'm searching from Canada.
    Anyway all these bumps are good so people can be warned.

    copy that, I didn't really want to buy any parts from him anyway - just checking availability, his price, and yes
    just thought I would check up on him some more.

    #806 7 years ago
    Quoted from Boof-Ed:

    It does the same thing in Australia. He must have blocked all sales outside the US.

    maybe we're gettin' to that bastard . . .

    #810 7 years ago
    Quoted from Homepin:

    You are correct in that my response is general in nature. Using a VPN would allow some to see a website in another country that might be blocking their usual access - this could be for repair/service information or anything else NOT specifically for this particular eBay information on this seller.

    I've utilized the VPN / IP go around for other purposes, but not for anything related to this ( MAD ) dirt bag . . .
