Trying to get these games and items into a container while running a business and working 80 hours a week at the hospital... I will sell on ebay or put these smaller items on the site later instead of taking offers and putting in the container now.

Sorry, I literally do not have the time to research reasonable prices on these things, and wanted to see them go to people who were in the community. I will keep these and figure out what to do with them in the future. However shipping at that point will be from Hawaii instead of the mainland.

Too many cp's to lay out in the living room, and yes it's sideways:)

Anyway you could straighten it out before you ship it? :D

Looks so pretty and will make somebody happy. If you come across any cocktail sticks please let me know.
 
It was a joke, this whole make an offer thing is horse shite. I was looking to buy several of the "Hawaii" games but making offers on stuff with weak descriptions and barely any photos is just lame. You know what you paid for the games and parts, figure out how much profit you want to make and put up a friggen price. Stop fishing for suckers for the maximum profit possible and just stick them on EBay, that's what it's for.


$105 - Yeeep

all the players on ebay are likely on here, why pay fees?, ebay would also be likely more

no reason to get bent out of shape
 
I agree that this make an offer crap needs to go back to ebay where it belongs.
I am not interested in any of this stuff but think make an offer is weak sauce on KLOV.

This forum is a place to help other collectors with things and tech help and not to make maximum profit.

Actually come to think of it, maximum profit would come from parting out the games... It's a bit hard to ship whole cabinets back from Hawaii, the point of offers is to get sales lined up before I have the container shipped. However if the "collectors" want me to stop trying to front the funds for a container by getting offers then maybe I should just start parting and selling on eBay, much easier for me to do, and I will make more... That way I don't have to offer free shipping to Long beach by gathering all the sales at once, I can just dribble the parts out over time or charge people to ship each individual cabinet from Hawaii as they buy them.

Good point. Please don't do that. I think the main issue here that people complain the most is the best offer (MMAO). We are all collectors here and we all know how much these are worth (roughly). Nobody likes auctions here on KLOV. So why not set a price and if no takers then obo? That should leave out a lot of confusion and frustration with a lot of potential buyers, and cut down the amount of emails and PMs that you will receive. Just sayin'. ;)

Also, we know how busy that you are with the games, work and exam. Don't you think a fixed price listing is much more cut and dried? You will save a lot of time from reading and sorting out dozens if not hundreds of emails of offers on all those games and parts.

Not many people are making offers, so reviewing emails is easy, and the offers are what one would expect, some low balls and some reasonable.

To be quite honest, I can just keep the games here, have a kicking arcade, and save a lot of energy.
 
Sorry, already spending too much time online, started at 5am today, on until 10am tomorrow and I have 4 people in the ER who need various things fixed or put back in place.

If people have an idea of a fair price then instead of complaining about the offers just post in the thread.

"Wow, an NOS Joust control panel, that's really rare, however, who really needs NOS with all the repro stuff available? Well if the Joysticks are truly NOS maybe this should get 175-225"

I consider many of your friends, and appreciate the constructive comments, but I really don't understand when KLOV turned so negative. If you don't like how someone is selling something, don't buy it from them. If you think they should post prices, then post your own suggestions. Instead of wasting peoples time and bumping threads without adding to content, do something constructive and add to the content.
 
You're going to take your ball and go home? Really?

NOBODY FORCED YOU to buy a bunch of games during your 80 hr work week.

You already gave the best titles to your closest friends and now your trying to get rid of the rest of the games and make some $$ which is perfectly fine, i get that. But the blind toss an offer over the ocean approach is what sucks, nobody knows if their offers are close to what your looking for, should offer more or anything else for that matter - a crap shoot.

You wanted to see them go to the community? The community uses Ebay too.

Rant off.

2 Major Havocs, a Quantum, 2 I-robots, Domino Man, Warlords Cocktails, a Blaster Duramold, a brand new Qbert, and a Discs of Tron are the 2nd rate games????

Fizgig, you make no sense, what in the world did you consider the best titles?

And no, nobody did force me to buy these, but is there honestly a collector out there who could have walked away from this lot of games? That's just crazy talk, games are like crack, but man is this whole attitude thing pulling me off my high, ok, I'm off to the ER later guys.

SOLD! See how easy that was? Upfront pricing and no shinanigans, everybody wins :) Now stop wasting time here and go save some people!

Sorry, wait, Fizgig, if you want, I can sell you ArcadePC... but it's missing the PC and I want 2000 for it :)
 
Yeah, fair enough those are nice titles, I have a few of them. I know of a few guys that got some preferential treatment is all - all those sweet pinball machines and an immaculate zookeeper for starters.

I didn't get any of the pins :( They were all purchased by someone back there, who also purchased the Zoo Keeper. I will load ArcadePC in the container for you
