FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

[kiwi]

I messaged that guy within minutes of that ad being posted. I offered him $5000 cash and will pick up ASAP. He didn't even respond to me. So I'm filing that ad under B for Bullshit.

Maybe he thought your reply was fake. I'm thinking some sellers have no idea of how the silly prices have become for some machines.

I got a response....seller was flooded with messages and calls and got the idea in her head that FG is a 6k USD, so decided to turn it into an auction. No thanks.

Yep, seen the odd pin listed at way low prices the the seller lines up people with "offerd" they've had. Suddenly the price asked is become an auction.

I still have no idea why people would reply to an ad and offer more than asking. If someone is selling for 3800, call and say "I'll take it-I'm on my way". If people quit trying to turn these things into auctions, then it'd stop happening.

I was one of the first to reply so when I offered 5K for his/her $3800 listing it was not to bid but because I didn't feel right getting a game that was so grossly underpriced. Its a $6k game so I went half way, I would have offered more but I haven't seen the game condition. As soon as it goes into some kind of auction, I would withdraw my offer immediately.

Because they know it's worth more and are willing to pay more, and if they offer more than asking they might get it over someone offering the asking price.

Why do people in Toronto pay over asking for houses? Same reason, they want it.

Yes that seems to be the norm! Was she a real estate agent too! ?

Hi Jolal. This thread is for machines that are not yours for sale. I would recommend starting a new thread.

Way under priced, fake pictures, weird description with tons of ,,, ... ,,, all over the ad. I wouldn't be too concerned about it. Maybe someone got a good deal but I doubt it.

I got a email back saying it was just picked up and sold. Great score for someone.

When someone verifies they actually purchased it and they have it at home I'll be happy for them. Until then I wouldn't be loosing any sleep over it.

 

[hey you with the face]

I won't be loosing any sleep either way. If he's on Prev, congrats to the buyer! Cheers!

 

[roar]

I will be shocked if that was an actual deal... that post had troll written all over it.

 

[hey you with the face]

It needed a lot of work, $1000 worth parts give or take.. a sweet project deal if it was real

 

[roar]

Even if it needed $3000 in parts it was a fantastic deal! Too good too be true imo.
