Cactus Canyon - Starting at $2500
« on: November 21, 2012, 10:03:48 AM »

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Cactus-Canyon-Excellent-Con-/140889752840?pt=AU_CoinOp&hash=item20cdaf0508


Listed at a starting price of $2500. The sleer has three and wants $13000 - $15000. New Seller (zero feedback), located in Noble Park (Victoria), yet there are four warehouses full of games to sell fron their showroom in Canberra ?

 !@#

I don't think the seller understands eBay ?

"I have four wear houses to clear of arcade and pinball games"
I hope that isn't a indication of the condition of some of the games.

think scam? or just protecting his normal ebay profile? The auction should be pulled, because he is stating that their will be a reserve.

Ahhhh yes, welcome to the ebay pinball sales comedy channel.....steak knifes will be included (also for an additional huge fee).  %.% %.% %.%

pinball machines pictured arent even the machines for sale...it says to email for the actual pictures of the actual machines for sale if you want to look at them....NO, who would actually want to see the real photos of the real machines...I mean WE ALL BID on auctions that never picture the real machine all the time dont we  *.* *.* *.* *.*  Who would want to see the actual product for sale.... &^&

they will sell for $13,000 and $15,000  (garbage...cant give them away, last mint CC I saw in person sold here in QLD went for $8,900 and it took 12 months to sell-couldnt give it away, more have come in over the last 5 years and there is a glut of them -people get bored after showing it off for 6 months n gameplay is a snoozefest, people rather MM now for supposed top dog, not CC anymore)....
.........and its smart to list it at a starting price of $2500, because it is as boring as bat shit and plays like a $2500 machine or worse...he says many hours of gameplay to keep u entertained for hours...more like they only spent a few hours doing the games programming when designing it and u will be scratching your head wondering where the rest of the code is for many hours before you leave it in your own corner.... %.% %.%

The final laugh, is The Addams Family he is selling is ONLY $13,000 as well...   %.%   bargain considering I just helped deliver one that was in excellent condition and was sold for $6500 which I thought was top dollar in this market, and the one I delivered needed absolutely nothing doing to it and was as close to a excellent example of a Addams Family pin that u could find anywhere in excellent original condition, with excellent undamaged, beautiful playfield, fully shopped n had a colourful cabinet so orig it looked like new still etc. That sold for $6500, not $13,000....even if u added the gold edition plague (which people make for $50 and slap on with gold decal set for $250 from the UK, I saw one sell for $9,000 and it also took 2 yrs to sell....prices are insane....

check out their website, 10 points for confidence, 0 points for realistic prices n results...  %.%..I think the warehouses will be full til my children are fully grown.lol...ahh, ya have to have a laugh...pinball...its such a entertaining industry.
