Hey pinballed, thats a pretty high price for an old game. You collector guys sell these old games, ask big dollars and then the poor sucker who buys them doesn't know how to fix them when they break down hours later. Don't you feel bad about that?


obviously from a member here because theres no Pinballed tag on my kijiji post.

what gives you the right to say my games are going to break down hours after you buy it? The price for MAACA members is $750 and for non members its $850. Theres always a little bit of wiggle room but certainly not for a holes like you. Nice logic...older game...so what, it should be $300?
Get a life.
If you cant afford to be in the hobby, go collect tinker toys then.

That is the e-mail address of everybody's favorite pinball crook
Stephen Anderson, Mark Utley or whatever handle he is currently
going by.  He isn't a member here, although he's been banned
a few times.

AH....THEE bottom feeder. The Mack Daddy of them all around here...figures, what a shnook. Guy's not that bright, is he?

I find the same thing... I know they're MAACA guys.  Grow up!  Better yet, go away and get a new hobby!

You get those kind of bottom-feeders no matter what you're trying to sell. It's not limited to vid/pin stuff.

+1

Whenever i sell music stuff, i get at LEAST one or two mails telling me they have "CASH" and will happily pay me half the amount i ask. (And i usually keep prices low to move stuff quickly)

blegh.

Bottom feeders indeed.

Thing is, in reality Bottom feeders do end up with a wicked good deal   sometimes and I have to admit I do it as well. It is to be expected in any used items sales.
Even in my RC cars I get that as well. Sometimes I end up selling low because there simply is no response and sometimes I end up with a deal because the other seller also got no response.
THing is, you never know how the sale is gonna end.

If your not happy with the offer you don't have to take it.

The way I see it, if you don't ask you won't know.

It's one thing to lowball, it's another to try and brownbeat a seller into taking a low offer like Mr. Anderson tried to do in this case...  total scum.

Agreed!!!

wow, what an asshat.. I mean really, you could say that about anything used.. cars, computers, electronics, etc.  It's the chance you take.  If you're not willing to fix it yourself, or pay someone to fix it for you, then maybe you shouldn't be buying a used item

At least you're selling it honestly, and not stealing money from people like him or Jebsen  

Based on the fact that the anonymous emailer knew the sellers MAACA name, and that the email is one known for Stephen Anderson, it is safe to deduce that Anderson lurks on this forum still.


Listen here Anderson, you are a shmuk and a loser! How does it feel to be so unpopular?

  just got a email from m_mechanical73@yahoo.ca as well.  love how he emails and then blocks you.  i just sent him a message from my other email account.  what a guy

thats another email address this guy goes by. Wish he would man up..but I don't think that will happen anytime soon.

Hi!

If you go on canada 411 and search for a G Walsh you find some names in the Montreal/Toronto etc. regions.  If you are going to insult people and want to do it anonymously you should be careful because tracking down is not as hard as it looks!  However, people like that make for an entertaining conversation

take care

That is the email address I got hate mail from..this morning. I am simply reposting that address for others to see. I don't think a guy would be that dumb, to use his real name in a phony email address.If you are talking about people tracking me down, well that is another story, I am easy to find.If it is someone you know,or I have  offended someone, then kindly PM me and I shall sort it out.

Anderson seems have reduced himself to only providing personal commentary and not actually buying machines. Seems to think everyone else is guilty of doing what he does.

None the less that is why there is that delete button on your computer.

I love Hate mail, and people that talk mess..

Means I am doing something well why else would some douchebag waste his time emailing me;
just some lonely very jealous tool... if they would use thier real email address though at least they could have a cyber friend...I would email them back and shoot the breeze.

All I was saying is that people think they can be anonymous on the Internet.  You can but you need to be real good at it.  Even by using a phony email address your IP is really what matters.  Of course, people that will send hate mail are not worth the time but they still get on my nerves.  If I have a problem I state it and I am not afraid of standing behind what I say. It has been positive and sometimes not too good but at least I don't hide.  If you look at my nickname "gmaranda" and find a few post which I signed Gilles I believe you can add 2+2.  Do a Canada 411 with this in Clarence-Rockland and I will pop up.......  Wow, I am goooooooooood.  Tks for posting the name "GJD" but don't under estimate the stupidity of some people .  Maybe we should have a special section dedicated to stupidity either our own or others  

Any how have fun and keep on smiling.
