I don't get these ads.  They are obviously fake.  I don't understand the logic and this sh*t gets really tiring to wade through.

"Creature From The Black Lagoon, first $500 obo takes it but you must pick up before the end of the month when we move. THIS MACHINE IS ON HOLD FOR A GENTLEMAN FROM MONTREAL"

I reported at least half a dozen of you-know-who's ads last week and nothing happened. I think kijiji support has stopped caring. They used to be removed in very short order.

I actually replied to both those ads.  I'm just looking for my first machine and thought, wow these look like great deals.  The Creature, I was pretty sure was not real, but thought doesn't hurt to try.  The Adamms Family one seemed more realistic, but no response from either seller.  I guess they are fakes. But who is this "you know who" guy you speak of?

I got no reply from either of them myself.

If you Google Addams Family, there is a personal website of an owner with that exact picture.  Whoever posted the ad copied it directly from the site.

It's Mark Uttley, aka Stephen Anderson, or Mr. "Give Hamilton Pinball Collectors a Bad Name Guy".. a person with some serious issues, and tussles with the law, that you will want to avoid.
