In hinesight my comments were of a far to personal nature.
In my dealing with this seller he was in an aweful big hurry to get my mate and I out of his shop (and we were the only ones in there and no it was not knock off time), he was very unwilling to allow us to power up the game and as soon as I light came on he cut the power to it (the game was still doing the power on self test). He was happy for us to look around the shop for a short while but was sort of nervous and very unwilling to talk to us and was fairly unfriendly. The game was not in a servicable condition (as stated in his description) and had other issues that he had done a good job of hideing/failed to mention in his description and photos on the listing.
I learnt my leason from dealling with him and will not do again. The whole experience left me with a bad taste in my mouth and it was a long time before I purchased another machine. If I contact a seller now and get a bad feeling about them, I just don't buy the machine, unless it is under the money. Ok enough of that.
In the short time I have been on this forum I have found it to be very positive and helpful. I would not purposely do anything to stir up trouble or spread hate. Punter started a tread about a bad experience he had with a seller, and I replied with my own bad experience with the same seller. I now realise that I should have been more circumspect in my reply.
I guess the old saying "buyer beware" is one worth remembering whenever you buy a pinball machine.
The thicken plots.
