    I was the first one there this morning. I offered him 600 for it..
He had plenty of people wanting to come get it. Some assh@le tried to
cut me out of the deal before I even got there. The guy got what he
wanted for it so that was good.

    The guy was clueless on how the machine worked. He ripped one of
the steel rails off the game to get the glass off for a stuck ball. It
was having some board issues I believe, or grounding issues. It kept
trying to reset targets that were reset, then the game would just shut
down. The game was nice except for the rail he pulled off. The guy who
got it ended up paying eight for it. I know its a rare machine, but
thats alot of money for something thats not working. Chances of
getting my money back were good, but it probably needed board work and
a total shop out. Who knows what else. Whoever got it will make out
i'm sure.- Hide quoted text -

Yea I should have bought it. It just sucks knowing a fellow RGPer
tried to undercut me before I even got there. I called the guy back he
said it was Loyd. It doesn't matter, If I would have bought it I
probably wouldn't even have broke even on EBAY. Thats just my luck. He
doesn't waste any time. He was picking it up at 12:15 because he was
pulling in as I was pulling out. I saw a listing on here at 12:30 I
believe.
