Expired Centaur & Fathom Pinball Machines for sale.

[Numark Joseph]

Hey there. I'm Finally moving to a different city for my dream job & would unfortunately to give these two lovely machines out as i won't have the time to play either. i'm not too firm on the prices so offers are accepted. Sorry no trades lol.
The fathom & centaur have been in my possession for about 2 years. Previous owner is my late dad. the fathom has never been restored. Playfield is excellent. Lighting and sound system still work 100%. Decals have never been changed. Well, a picture is worth a thousand words so. I live in Saugus, MA. You're very welcomed to come by and check it out. PM and lets make a deal. Cheers!

This Forum is primarily UK based Joseph, so to "come by " and check them out is a tad tricky , plus importing machines over the Atlantic attracts huge shipping costs and import duties making any sort of "deal " implausible at best , I think you knew that already besides Fathoms & Centaurs fetch relatively more stateside than they do over here currently , if you really do have to move those beauties on ,and I know that can't be easy for you , Pinside might be a good option .

Fathom in particular would sell for much more in the US from what I’ve seen.

I'll give you 3.50 and a bag of grapes?

Is this a case which supports the recent argument for keeping these threads open to fair challenge...………………….whatever the outcome

And this is the reason why we should be able to comment on "For Sale" posts.

The fact that it breaks the no. 1 rule of not submitting a price at all, rather offers are accepted, and factual errors, grammatical errors, form a different country (and we all KNOW how much I hate foreigners ) it's obviously a scam.

PM........L

Decals? Lol

 

[Kenny Taylor]

A number of pinsiders have been caught by scammers recently too.

I'm not seeing any evidence it's a scam. Machine is in the US, matches posters IP address. No google matches on the text or images.

Misguided and naive, yes. Scam? I'm not so sure

Not concrete evidence but "I'm Finally moving to a different city for my dream job" just sounds fishy and seems contrived to me.

Radio silence from the USA says something itself...………………………………. a possible crime stat averted or just a fed up seller; I'd want the last word so I know which one my vote is on.

 

[Paul]

It's 7am there... so silence is understandable..

 

[Kman]

Yup...………...can't wait for opening time!

 

[Vimtoman]

IP address VPN provider?

 

[Paul]

Yeh possible.... However the processes i use to look these up will usually identify common VPN breakout points/Shared resource.

 

[Vimtoman]

Probably not realised it's a UK site

 

[Arv]

It's a scam ffs.

 

[Chris]

Who actually gives a **** whether it is a scam or not. Nobody is going to buy them off here.

Move along nothing to see here

Remember the good old days when we used to mock Pinside for being a horrible place? Ahh.

Remember the good old days when people's IPs wouldn't change from one day to the next? Still a scam.
