FS Game: Exidy showdown arcade 98446

I hope it's not the whole back door.

I know for sure that some KLOV members are back door men, if you know what I mean, and I am not talking about Jim Morrison.
 
The game was clearly listed as non working. For $1300. The day I got it working I get an offer on the non working ad listing. I had mentioned to the guy I just got it running 25 minutes ago and I had considered going to relist it as a working game.

I should have the right to ask for more money without confrontation as I invested near $300 more getting it working. Is that reasonable.

Just because he made a offer without me relisting the game doesn't mean I owe him 1st opportunity at buying. I also did mention I had local interest.


I don't need to defend myself here in anyway because I didn't promise the guy anything. I didn't ask for payment or accept payment or agree to this guy the game was his.

Those were awesome pick ups for $100 each! Good score.

What I paid and what there worth is irrelevant

It was actually 100 bucks or best offer for all the games the guy had. He had 7 I got 4

I think it might have less to do with needing to defend yourself, and the other posts quoted. I am not judging or trying to price police, but strange times all around. I remember a time all it took was some cookies and milk to get a G.I Joe with the kung fu grip.
 
Who cares what I paid there's no relevance. We all have bought games for nothing and sold for something.

Big deal what I paid. It's what it's worth
Correct. And I'm happy to give it away for far less if your a Kool kid.


I've personally also paid more for games and sold for less if we're friends.

there's no shame in selling a game to make a profit. just jealousy from others.
If it falls within market value.

The biggest #1 rule here is no price policing. Right? So why quote what I paid other than being mad it wasn't your pick-up
 
I'm with Santa on this whole thing - this whole post has gotten so weird - he was totally upfront the whole time every step of the way - someone could have bought it not working for dirt cheap - the gun alone is worth $600 - he tried to fix it and said it would be more if he did - eventually the fix was the multi collexn which also costs money

All I can say is I have 4 exidy shooters and the showdown cab is rare and for a working multi exidy this is a steal - I bought Cheyenne from Santa a year ago and it works perfect
 
Not that it makes any difference, but that's not an 'original' Exidy Collex'n multikit... so it's not so rare. Again though... it really makes no difference.

Also, I have to agree... what the guy paid for the game is irrelevant. If someone PAID him $100 to get the "garbage out of my basement", it doesn't make the game worth any less. I'm guessing no one would be pulling this kind of shit on the guy who picked up the EDOT recently off the curb,.

Finally... yes, seller seems to have been pretty forthright with everything in the listing.

Oh, and I might have pulled out the "kool kids kard" but I already own an Exidy cabinet (Combat). :D

And if he deleted his listing, we would have been all over him for that too.

LOL

I dunno man, I'd say the Exidy cool would come with a Side Trak or Rip Cord.
