Whatever I say will never be good enough.

Then take a picture.  Better yet, steal someone else's picture and claim it as your own!.

If you read this all its clear that one guy wants my head.....

Not Me.  Don't think this as me wanting your head. I hope you don't mean me. I am just defending people on here.  I would do the same if you called someone else out, and they were attacked.

So....got something to say now?....my machine is worth even more....hell they are rare and one of them is in switzerland!

I find it very comical you took the most expensive EK that was listed on Mr Pinball and chose to use THAT as your example here.....  The fact the other 3 listed range from 600-1500, and these are fully shopped out, AND ARE NOT PAINTED YELLOW AND BLUE, should be used as more of a barometer don't you think?  (unless the factory produced a super rare limited edition yellow and blue cab.... yeah right)   While I will admit the other three listings do not indicate if they are EM or SS, who are you to say one or more are not?

Also, if the EK in Switzerland sells at that price maybe you should go phishing in that market for your sucker.... I mean buyer.  If you want that kind of profit without the flak, bad back or not, time to put your $$ where your mouth is and get scrapin' that paint off the cab first.    

Once that's done, post the pics and let the true condition of the machine speak for itself.....

So....got something to say now?....!

As a matter of fact I do; I think you may be on F#@*#@# glue, or perhaps inhaling to much paint stripper;
I am the first to admit ya maybe I have made a few extra bucks on stuff that I flip, but not 3 or 4 times what I paid...maybe 100-200 enough to cover gas, lunch and a gram of blow...

But I am not stupid enough to brag I got it cheap and then try and sell to members for WAY too much...I usually sell  to members and friends for what "I have into it"...

I wish I could remember what movie it was in but I remember one of the Brat Pack kids saying in a jimmy cagney kinda of voice..."You my friend are an a**hole"

done

BTW
Have a nice day

Wow this bashing is getting out of hand..  Welcome to RGP - Canadian edition.

He didn't try to sell it to members BTW.  He didn't realize that we could track down how much he paid and also find out about his Epay auctions..  He shouldn't have bragged about the great deal he got but give the guy a break!  Jesus!

It's not like it's gonna sell anyway with the current paint job..  Let him sell it for what he can and get over it  

Let's get back to having fun.

Quoted from MrMikeman

Someone didn't read the first part of the price guide..  You know the part where it states that prices listed reflect a machine that's : "100% working, recently shopped, and in excellent cosmetic condition"..

My 0.02$

Mike,

An aside ... you really are stuck on making everyone stick to that sticky part of Mr. Pinball's disclaimers.  How in the world can they claim to know "excelllent cosmetic condition" when they simply chart classified ads on their site and eBay sales??  I like the guides, but The Mr. Pinball Guide, is just that, a rough guide.  There are some people in the world that don't read the guide and base their purchase on a) a theme or era they like, b) proximity of the seller, c) a missing piece for their "collection" and the price goes up.  Sometimes you just have to be patient.  In Mr Clomizac's defense he is trying to make a buck from what he considers a good find, more power to him and damned be the RPG gang (they weren't likely candidate buyers anyway). I am laughing as I'm saying this, so don't take offense.

Quoted from Vengeance

If you throw some green on the backglass while your at it you got a deal!

Ok, so here is a deal for you http://tinyurl.com/2qoxdt  A completely repainted backglass.  The seller is very honest about it.  I kinda like it.  Maybe it should be worth more since it's a one of a kind original, hand painted, backglass...  

I hope I can have good humour when you guys raz me one day for trying to sell Monte Carlo for $2500.
