He sure gets a lot of free publicity that way. Great tactic. hehe

Not saying that RLevin isn't a nice guy.
In the auction he states that, "This board was marked working but unable to test so sold as is." To me thats an untested boardset if the seller can't verify it works. Therefore the price is way out of line for the market. I'd say 75-150 was reasonable.

Just wondering...if its been purchased, then why is it still on eBay? (With declined offers dating back to March 24.)

i think rlevin is great! i remember when he first got on here, it seemed like he dug himself a hole so big he would never get out. there were alot of reputable people with reasonable sounding complaints. however, he took the time to answer publicly every single charge layed out against him. after all was said and done, he earned alot of respect from me. there was alot of hot headed trash talk, which was fun to read. i think he is an ethical businessman trying to do the right thing, but when people piss him off he can have a short fuse. complaining about his prices is ridiculous, he's not some dumb motherfucker with a broken converted pac man hellecade trying to get 4 grand for it. he is a knowledgeable retailer in the arcade business, and the market supports the prices he charges. after the way people have repeatedly negro piled on him, i have to say i admire his stubbornness and determination to stay put and recognize the people on this board who keep these games alive as brothers.

I say cut the guy some slack. So what, he charges some outrageous prices. Don't buy from him, and move along.
Quit whining, 80sguy. He can charge whatever he wants and guess what? No one's forcing you to buy. Oh, how awful that someone can actually make their living off of this hobby!

Holy shit! Why is this thread still alive???????
Who gives a rats ass what anyone sells their crap for?!?! If you don't like the price, have a chuckle and move on. Why would you go out of your way and email the seller to berate them? Why would you post this thread? Nothing productive can come from it.

Sorry..Not trying to cause trouble..just discussing. If you can wait long enough for someone to pay that much then more power to ya.

Agreed.
Being that Dale is VERY close to me, I'd love it if his machines were more affordable. But as long as someone in Dumbfuckistan is willing to pay top dollar, then why wouldn't he sell his stuff for as much as he can get?
It still doesn't stop me from making offers and getting turned down.
I'm still inclined to ban price policing (and soon).

This is different. Price policing is like instant thread poison. It puts everyone on the defensive.
Another thing which annoys alot of members is when there will be 10 new threads a day in the main forum whose sole purpose is to provide a link to an outrageously priced ebay listing. Then the thread will devolve into some sort of pissing match.
