I got an email from a "Patrice LePage" yesterday. I'm not familiar with the name. Although the message was super brief, It seems he's looking to sell me a pin.
Anyone recognise the name? |

Jesus People
Patrice is not a bad guy at all.
he is a good guy and never tries to steal your money he tries to be upfront with you all.
Because he buy and resales he is the anti Christ come on.
Jim would buy and resale nobody mess on him.
He does it tries to make a little money i cant knock him on that because brings allot of new machines in our areas.
Give the guy a break he is always open to trades and he can be worked with.
I can name a few people that are more then happy with him and got nice sweet deals.
Could name a few but not my place to say.
When I had the money i went to see pat a few times with no fear naturally you have to inspect the game to make sure it what you like.
You make Pat to be the bad guy.
He hide a dam thing will let you take the machine apart to look let you play it and he will even tell you most of the time where it is from.
If that make him a thief and a crook well I am greatly disappointed in the group.
That's all I have to say.

Just FYI, I have had a couple PMs stating Pat is indeed a decent guy to deal with - as far as their personal dealings with him are concerned. There are indeed 3 sides to every story. Just something to keep in mind... |

I agree here... Pat is not in the least bit in the same category as Stephen Anderson. That is wrong. I respect Pat and he has his way of doing business, and there is nothing illegal in his methods. His approach is more relative to a sales approach than an collector's approach, and there is nothing illegal nor wrong with that. This post was merely based on a difference of opinion and a personal dispute... nothing more. If people start complaining about games they paid too much for, it is their problem alone. Unjustified criticism is exactly that... unjustified. That is one of the reasons that caused Jim to leave, remember? I admit openly to have overpaid for a few games in my life... am I bitter? Nope... because ultimately, I took the decision to buy. Guys, I am sure that if you contact Pat and meet with him to take a look at a game and negotiate a price with him, you will most probably not have a problem. Can the machine you get have an issue? Yes... but that is regardless who sells it. Stuff breaks. And Pat doesn't hide the fact at all that he is not a collector, thus does not take a lok at every single wire and connector on a machine to see if it is OK. And as for the original argument, there is a buyer for everything. I personally don't find a Demo Man at 1800 to be excessive. At 4000$ for that specific machine, then I would have raised an eyebrow... but Mike's machine was impeccable. And also, Pat is right, some DMs sell for 1200-1300, but that would be a route-pin. Guys, Pat and Mike have discussed this... let's just move on to something else before it degenerates any further... I vote to go in the same direction as Machine-Slave. I like Turtles... but I prefer a good Snickers bar myself. Mmm |
