So, what are the cabs that you almost bought, but just didn't pull the trigger on for some reason?
For me, I let a Burgertime get away because the guy that offered delivery (just to my door, mind you) wanted to charge me $100. He was about 3 miles away, and already had to pack more games including this one in his huge truck anyway; all he had to do was put it near the back make the stop, drop it off and leave. It was a simple delivery...not worth $100 IMO. I offered $50 and he refused. So for that, I lost the cab. Oh well. Looking back, the cab was overpriced anyway, but I really wanted the game. I guess not bad enough to get ripped off though.
I also ALMOST bought a Tetris that was in fair condition but needed work. I didn't lowball by any means, but the guy was set on not coming down on his price. I made my offer, which I thought was quite fair and he said he'd contact me, but he never did. The price difference was a lousy $25.
