Was our price too low? (Scared Stiff)

Listed on everybody's favorite venue, eBay. Sold & paid in full within
14 hours at 95% asking price. Thoughts? :P

My thoughts are, I'd be careful stating that publicly - eBay is known to
punish sellers who sell outside eBay :)

Having said that, where's the pic of the lovely lady with the SS? Was
she wearing an Elvira costume?

There's a sucker born every minute. Even the nigerian scammers get
somebody every now and then. You throw enough games out on ebay over a
long enough period of time, eventually you'll be able to make a sale.
This ONE sale is the only one i've ever seen you post about.

Ironically, it's one of the few pins Danielle isn't posing with. As
much as i like staring at her body, maybe she isn't working as well as
you thought?

Hey, if a guy walks in & says "I want to look at that Elvira sitting
there," I don't ask, hey did you see it on eBay?? No "against policy"
happenings here. No pics of Danielle with this one... it was scheduled
but sold too fast.

[yetterben]

I honestly dont know why you post here. All your posts are straight look
at me trolling posts. DO you ever have anything to give back or just to
gloat.

I guess the short answer is that it was priced just right. You are in
the business to sell games -Right? You selected a price. You accepted
5% less and it sold. Mission accomplished!

If you would rather sit on your inventory for longer periods of time,
then by all means, raise the price on the next one and see what happens.
I am guessing you are not in business to give machines away. But, if
you don't make any sales, you are in business either.

On the last iteration of this theme, I thought that there were a lot of

much.

But on this one, I fail to see why you even posted this unless you're
just trolling to stir up the masses.

Why not just be happy with the sale and move on? I think you're paying
way too much attention to what people think of you here. Not very smart
in my estimation.

At least if you're going to troll, include games with the girl so those
of us who don't care either way can at least have something to look at.

Didn't sell on or thru eBay but call me what you want. It's easy to hit

competitors. If others would stop slinging around junk, perhaps they
could do the same. Mostly, they're just stuck in lazy mode...

sold a pin (as a retailer/brick and mortar) at retail/brick and mortar
pricing?

Congrats on your sale, looks like a nice machine.... Not sure what
else you are expecting out of this...?

Wow. Congrats to you on getting that price. Obviously the buyer was
very happy with the pin and felt it was worth it. In the end, that's
all that matters... buyer got what they wanted for a price they wanted
to pay and you sold for a price that continues to keep you in
business.

Otherwise known as trolling. Thank you for admitting it. You might
want to stop, though... unlike doctor frankenfuhrter, you and your
business are public knowledge, and pissing off thousands of people on
a computer forum is just asking for trouble. I personally don't care
either way, but you'd think, being a reseller, you'd have more tact
(and brains).

You're an asshole as well. Just FYI. Not quite the asshole you were
before "Nathan" but still a jerk.

[Frank Furhter]

No, I got the 'humor' .. comparing him to how you think you used to

The argument started over the fact that he has a model in his auction
pictures. People started to poke fun at him and started to bitch about
it. After that, they turned to attacking his prices (which actually
aren’t that bad compared to others on eBay). How it escalated to such
nonsense is the fact that people aren’t listening to one another and
were taking insults too personally. Everyone still contributing to this
hot air needs to ignore these threads (it’s making everyone look like a
jackass)… or have their dicks removed as their no longer men, but whiney
school girls. And that’s the end of my story. Join me next time when I
read aloud Beowulf. ^_^

Blah, blah, blah. You obviously have no clue how eBay works. We list
items in our eBay "store" at a fixed price. There was no bidding, or
shill bidding, or "last bid." Also, "fixed price" listings are "good
until cancelled." On a serious note, I strongly encourage you to
"killfile/plonk" me as you have nothing productive or entertaining to
say in response, therefore I'd rather you not read my posts - unless of
course you're feeling agitated. If that's the case, keep reading & keep
ignorantly responding. I don't mind. Moron.

And you actually asked for peoples thoughts.
So you insult people who make statements you don't like.

You're here to agitate people .not what I consider rgp for.

choose not to tolerate the stupidity you choose to spew.

Teekee is like the Clint Eastwood of RGP....cool and calm.
People insult him about not listing prices on FS posts....thats fine,
whatever. Arguments about sold games posts like this one....move on
and forget. Throwing insults back and forth...no problem, get over
it. Bickering about game values for selling....who cares, its not for
you. E-smooth :)

[JahBarron]

Reporting him to the IRS would a very "pinball" thing to do. I would
suggest moving on and skipping the man-child antics that hobbyists often
pursue in situations like this.

He's not hurting the hobby, he's just an idiot living in an affluent
suburban area of Philadelphia with too much time and, most likely, money
on his hands.

No problem throwing out opinions and comments. I have plenty of my own
as everyone knows. Heck, nothing wrong with pushing a few buttons and
getting stress levels up a tad but it should never get personal IMO.
Never understood that...

His post was definitely a little idiotic but aren't we all at times.
Time to just move on and let him reflect on his mistake.

They don't ship pins and only sell games locally. I bought my RS off of
them and couldn't be happier. We negotiated a fair price and it looked
and worked flawlessly. Ray, the owner of the establishment, is an
acclaimed technician and one of the best out there (people only have
nice things to say about him and what he has done with their pins).
Selling pins is a side thing they do and they mainly focus on repair
work. I can’t say anything bad about them as I’m not asshole with too
much time on my hands.

Well Dorrito, i personally have nothing against him, i love staring at
Danielle all day and can't wait for more pics. I'm just saying there
are some petty people in the pinball world who will do things like this.
If he continues to "poke the hive with a stick' one of these days, he's
gonna get stung so to speak.

Well the word “unprofessional” certainly comes to mind here. Whether
you like this group or not, this post is a great example of poor
business practices. Set your prices, make your sales, and run your
business. What's happening on this post is poor business management,
especially when you are writing back and criticizing posters, using
inappropriate language, and flat out admitting you are just trying to
irritate people. Yes, others may have started the "criticizing" fight,
but you are the business here so you should be the bigger person (and
realistically this whole thing should have never even been started).

If you want to have a business, run it the right way and stop being
childish on forums. Or at least make another name so it doesn't
directly make the business look like a joke.
You got caught up in the negative feedback from this community and
decided to make a post to irritate them. In reality, if they were able
to annoy you enough to make you go out of your way to create a thread
purposely to "Agitate our anti-fan club"...doesn't that kinda mean
they won...afterall, they just made YOU make YOUR business look pretty
sloppy.

Idiotic? Sure. Mistake? Not at all. Gave some jackasses another chance
to reveal themselves. (FF) Also, one more time for the dumbest of the
dumb (FF) - our models are & have always been local college girls, not
family members. FF insists that our 23-year-old previous model is the
mother of our current 21-year-old model & that one is my wife & the
other is my daughter. Interesting fantasy but certainly every bit as
ridiculous as this entire thread. Did I mention that FF is a jackass? If
there is one redeeming quality message of this thread, it is that fact.

It's only pinball! How about I toss some pins from my roof, would that
be professional?

[DCug4eva]

Leave the pins and toss yourself off the roof, Frank may be a bipolar
asshole, but at least he's knowlegable and somwhat helpfull at times.
You (GRC) on the other hand do nothing but grief the group for your own
jollies, hopefully you can take the profit off your one sale and buy the
girl some lipo, she'd look better with an actual waistline. As it is she
looks like a fucking barrel.

You're making Frank look like a saint right now though. He's a non-profit troll.

That sound like a great plan Pinball Pimp, make a video, have the slutty
girls of your family drop a pin from the roof while you stand below and
catch it. That way you will be in the hospital and we won't have to
listen to your bullshit anymore.

Doriguin,

Since you are the only guy on the planet who defends the Pinball Pimp,
it seems obvious that you have been getting some from the Pinball Pimp's
daughter. What I would like to know is, did you trade pins or use cash
as payment for her services.

What the hell is wrong with you? For the sake of your family, this
just isn't a good idea, picking fights all over the place. You list

of the pictured models.

Well that's pretty obvious, but neither am I. I like my chances against
these girly-men who hide behind their computers & bark. I throw 300lb
pinball machines around for a living & am not afraid to bite when
appropriately provoked. :)

[GameRoomCollectibles]

Come to think of it, I even like her chances throwing down against the
posers whom I don't mind insulting. Of course, if necessary, she could
provide distraction whilst I bonk the offender over the head with the
nearest lockdown bar. :)

This is amazing. Someone hand king retard his crown.

I'm going to another newsgroup to provoke the entire board with a post then eventually talk about how I can beat them all up. I see that it's already been done here.

Maybe it doesn't sound realistic, and maybe lots of people do it, but
you are wrong in what you say about eBay policy. Check out this
quoted text that was taken directly from your eBay listing :

Per eBay policy:
"Please be advised that we do not allow members to sell directly to
buyers through eBay. Our listing page is used to sell items through
the eBay site. Sellers are not permitted to advertise their own off-
eBay businesses in their listings, nor are they permitted to list an
item on the site and seek to sell it, or more quantities of it, off
eBay." In addition to that, we only allow placing of personal contact
information provided that it is only for "Question & Answer " purposes
only.


If the machine was listed on eBay but is also sitting in your store
with a price on it and is available for sale, that is a violation,
even though it is commonly done. eBay was intended for non-retail
sellers, but has long since morphed into something else.

Interesting choice of words by their legal team. I'll put our legal team
on defining their use of the word "seek" & the context of its use within
that paragraph. It's a fine line they've drawn for sure. I think, just
my opinion, that they "seek" to avoid the buyers (& it's only them that
want to save the fees) trying to bypass their system while keeping
outfits like ours around. If we can't use them for the mass exposure
exactly as we have been, we won't use them at all. With our store
membership fees, listing fees, & "power seller" level worth of final
value fees, we pay them a healthy amount every month. Do they know
exactly what we're doing by baiting (yet not encouraging) folks to walk
in & pretend that they didn't see the machines on eBay? Sure. Do they
like the monthly wad of money we consistently give them? Apparently
enough. Do they want us to go find a better venue for a cheaper
billboard? Probably not. You're absolutely right that eBay was designed
for non-retail sellers but I trust they like our consistent income
source. eBay is greedy, believe that. Even beyond that, a few months
ago, they tried to tighten these anti-outside-eBay policies but backed
off when retail sellers like us threatened to go elsewhere. Why do you
suppose they continue to allow "personal contact information for
question & answer purposes"? They have an established eBay mail system
that negates the need to allow otherwise. As with most things, follow
the money.

[Frank Furhter]

You don't have a legal team, you have you, and you alone.

[GameroomCollectibles]

The funniest & even mildly entertaining thing about FF is how he yaps
like he knows something about something, yet obviously he don't know
squat. On the other hand, I know something about him. He's a jackass &
appears to also be gay. No offense to gay people & please accept my
apologies for including FF in your clique.

As an addendum to last night's eBay synopsis. Every other week, eBay
sends us information on how to integrate our retail business with eBay
using point of sale programming that automatically links incoming &
outgoing inventory to our listings. "Seek" is defined more concisely by
that action.

Well there is one on Mr Pinball for 8k, makes his sound like a bargain.
