This is a public rant about a MAACA member so avert your eyes if this offends you. I'm not the only guy to have issues with this person but the 'attack' he did on my DM sale just brought me over the edge. Pat Lepage is a private. He buys low, sells high, and when anyone else gets a deal on something he intervenes and offers more to the seller (as much as he thinks he can still make a profit on). The real kicker was that he also tried to sabotage my Demolition Man sale AFTER I posted here that it was sold. He casually walked in the retail place where I had it, talked to one of the salespersons, started asking about the machine, how much it sold for, etc. He then proceeded to seem appalled, and told the clerk that I was royally screwing the buyer, that he's had those machines before and that a very nice Demoman would never EVER sell for anything more than 1300$ (I sold mine for 1700$ and that included spare NOS cars, eyeballs and a full plastic set). He of course graciously offered to bring in some machines that are/were more reasonably priced, etc. Of course the clerk panicked, knowing nothing about pins and thinking I screwed their customer. Anyway thanks to another MAACA guy my sale was salvaged but this really confirmed that Pat isn't much better than a used car salesman. He's a F#@*#@# liar and a sleezebag. Since when does he sell WPC titles for 1300$???? I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing some crappy sys 4, 6, and 7 at that place at an asking price of about 1000-1200$.. That would be his 'more reasonably' priced pins... There I said it. Pat - Kiss my a** - Demo man is delivered and paid for.. I sure wouldn't deal with this guy. BTW he is NOT a collector but just a re-seller which doesn't mean that's a bad thing but it's his attitude and way of doing things that make him a douche bag. Censorship he we come! Mike 
I ain't censoring mess. I learned from the past... I can't censor someone for having an opinion... heck, people can even write bad stuff about me, as long as it is done without being overtly offensive. You have an opinion on someone... you posted on it in a non-offensive or vulgar manner. End of story. Me personally? I have spoken to Pat a few times but never bought from him directly, so I can't really say anything. Now let me get myself some Jiffy Pop... |

I have tried... even when I was willing to pay over what I should have and what the game was worth he still would not come down to my stupidly high offer. Oh well nothing ventured nothing gained. Anyone got a cyclone kicking around?  |

 I just want to know where the guy is that offered $500 to the previous owner for the Scorpion that I bought to tinker with? He never materialized when I was selling it?  I think I missed something. I thought you meant you didn't like porn Mike from your post.  |

J'ai acheter une machine a boule de ce gars. Je suis très satisfait de la pin et du service que j'ai eu. La pin est exactement comme il me la mentionner. Qui ici s'amuse à vendre ses pins moi cher qui les payent ??? En plus, si ce gars nous emporte des pins dans la région, tant mieux pour nous. Et pour terminer, si quelqu'un d'entre nous trouve les pins trop cher, laisse les là...achetent-les pas!!!  |

Centallica used to have an avatar like that... I don't know what happened to him but I am guessing he ended up in rehab with David Duchovny.  |
