    Quoted from wescor97:

    That sucks... Your $2,000 upside down in that game

    Don't worry...Obama will come in and save the day. I heard he has a new program in the works for upside down pinball buyers.

    Great, more politics.

    Mine was merely a smart ass quip...not a psycho rant.

    Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:

    You take the word smart out of that sentence and you got something!

    Dude let the guy sell his machine. If you really deciphered out of my little joke that I couldn't be the kind of person that you could "break bread with" then you have more issues than my dumb little joke.

    You and Alex Levy roommates?

    Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:

    Actually just the opposite. You and I may disagree politically (maybe we don't, but I'm guessing we do) but I'd be happy to play pins and break bread with you. So long as you're not a bullshit artist trying to con me every minute of the day. Re-read my post.
    Btw, I've already pm'ed the op about his PoTC.
    And whose Alex Levy and what does he have to do with this?

    Cool...I'll PM you. I will do my part to let the thread continue and let the guy sell his machine. 7 thumbs down is impressive though!

    Quoted from pinballsmith:

    I'm not sure what to do from this point. It's not the money issue that bothers me that much, it's the harassment from other collectors. I'm young and ignorant, that I do know. Sending me hateful emails and phone calls is just never within reason.

    Brush it off, those that would go to the extent of sending you nasty emails and actually call you aren't worth it anyway. You can't go around worrying about what others think.

    Look, if you have cash and want a machine...there isn't a buyer out there that's going to turn you down. There are some awesome sellers out here and MOST...never even post much. Don't let the vocal ones make you think that is the norm out there...it's not.

    Chin up...I lost $1100 on the first three pinballs I bought but learned a lesson and that's why I typically prefer a game like MB or MM that will retain value or a NIB.

    Quoted from schudel5:

    Here are the two options I'll throw out:
    1. Make it a point to buy your next 4 games at $500 below market.

    Dave Ramsey has two philosophies...cut back...or go out and make more money. I personally try for the latter every chance I get.

    Name any other leisure activity that doesn't cost money??

    Sex!...errrrrrr...nevermind

    Quoted from blondetall:

    OT: I had to stop watching Storage Wars because of all the Yep! Yep! calls, and because it was fake. But I'd love to watch all you guys go nuts over a storage unit full of mostly-wrapped up pins.

    I can deal with the Yep calls just to see Brandy
