here's a typical ad in Chicago by an owner

[rockston]

Vintage Japanese Pachisto Slot Machine


How many things can you find wrong with this?

[candyflip]

OK - lets deal with what's missing first.

1. Decent photos
2. Photos that are positioned the right way up!
3. A phone number for contact (a name would be nice too)

And from what is there...

4. Everything is in CAPITALS!!!
5. He mentions it takes coins, which is probably ILLEGAL!!!
6. He mis-spelt 'Electric'. And 'Pachisto' ! lol..
7. No mention of the name of the machine, or the maker.
8. It's not a 'Vintage'.


anything else???

[Meathead]

Yeah, he wants $225 for a DigiFlush.

Very typical. I have seen ads. That give you a idea of what it is (via title) a price (in title) And a really, really bad cell phone picture and that is it. No description or other means of contact.

I think CL should really set up some rules for posting an ad.

Maybe we should start a rant thread where we can make things like that and then give them our ideas. (very sarcastic if you couldn't already tell)

You guys are cracking me up this morning! thanks

Well the owner of this machine can sit and spin on it ! Very Poor CL Ad It's the same with persons who post in their ads that they are Members in a Pachi group and know how much that their machine is worth
