So seriously, why do you jokers say not tested instead of doesn't work... Clearly you TESTED the one that "seems to work but does not send video to monitor" Was it to much work to pull the edge connector???

Some peoples kids....

Why not ask him? Maybe he dont have any means to test the other PCB.

As any of you that have been in this hobby a while might know - testing boards is not always as simple as it sounds. Lately I have had a few scares where I took a working board out of a machine to put another in its place and test it... and when I go to put my working board back in the machine - it doesnt work. This DOES happen and lately I'm not real interested in taking that risk on a board. So that is why its UNTESTED.

Can't say I agree with you on this, but anyways, in this specific case, you stated the first board wasn't working, so can't see any harm in taking that one out and testing the other.

So its ok to risk it with one board but not the other? Is there some obvious damage that makes it seem like you wouldnt want to put in in a machine to test it like the first one?

Just be honest for fuck sake. Dont try and fool us with 'untested' just say it dont work and you dont know why. 'UNTESTED' makes you looks like a lying cheat especially when you are selling one as tested and one as untested.

Boy do you guys get carried away sometimes....

I have a fully working asteroids deluxe... That is the machine I am not going to mess with.

A few weeks ago - I did a repair for a guy on some of his machines... among them was an asteroids deluxe mini. The game played blind - but I had neck glow and got the monitor checked out... so I assumed it was the board. I got a replacement working board from another KLOV member on here... put it in the machine and it worked fine.
As part of my payment from the guy I did the repairs for - he threw in the (playing blind) board.
Several days later - I got another board from a totally unrelated transaction... that is the board that I listed for sale as untested.
So what is the problem here? If you guys want to test boards in your machines - go ahead.. I have no issue with that. I just dont want to screw with my working machines anymore unless I absolutely have to.

So why do I have to explain this? I feel like I am defending myself for listing a board as untested...

And as for Ken (the guy with only 120 posts) - I don't need your obscenity in my threads... have some class!

I'm not the one selling one tested and one obviously broken 'untested' board. I'm not the only person who thinks that tactic is kinda slimeball used car salesmanish. My post count is not really a refelction of my activity in the collector/gaming community but thanks for helping me get my post count up so I can have some street cred...

Here is a little secret for you. No one is pointing a gun at you making you buy anything from him. If you don't like his "tactics" then don't buy from him. He has not ripped anyone off. He isn't trying to rip anyone off. I sold him the working board and when I sold it to him he only had the one non-working board. He would have had no reason NOT to tell me about a second non-working board. He was trying to get that game working for the guy asap and I helped him out. I think his story checks out. Stop being a dick.
 
Man, there must be something in the air here at KLOV. Some crazy ass crabby people lately.

How difficult is it to understand the term 'untested?'

Don't want it? Don't ask for it. Keep the snide comments about WHY the OP is listing the items to yourself, or send them to him in a PM.

Armchair trolls. *grrrr*

Look at you all being a knight in shiny solder... So, do we both have no class now since I said fuck and you said dick?

I have no issue with people selling broken items. My issue is with the broken crap getting 'churched up' as untested instead of just saying its broken. Someone with little to no money may be hoping against hope that he can get his asteroids up and running with the last $60 he has and may actaully think untested is just untested and not for sure dont work. Most of us know untested means broken but it sure would be a better world if we could trust in that hope...

This place never ceases to amaze me, where else in the world can you go and find so many fucking assholes at your fingertips? Just run the board through a shredder brad, it's far less effort.
