    Default Pachinkos, a little too cheap?

    pachinko4less listed a large number of pachinkos with low BIN's on ebay.

    His feedback appears to be manufactured as it is alomost entirely items he bought for less than $1.

    This one seems a little too risky for me.

    Thoughts?

    From at least one of his auctions:

    "ALL PAYMENT MUST INCLUDE: NAME, ADRESS, ITEM, AND ITEM NUMBER,"

    but he only accepts Paypal.

    Now, I know I'm an incurable wise-ass but isn't that information always provided when making a payment through PP?

    Seems to good to be true ($99 Apollo $399 Star Wars) and no real feed back.

    I don't know but his second purchase was for "How to get 100 positive feedback in 1 week" for a big 59 cents.
    Some of the prices seem a little too good to be true

    I'd trust this guy more if he had ZERO feedback rather than seeing he manufactured feedback with a bunch of 99 cent purchases. This guy is real shaky. No way I'd buy from him at this point.

    He bought that one 3 times. It's a scam to bump up your rating. That's why one of the sellers is NARU.

    This person has made no sales.

    Thumbs down Re: Pachinkos, a little too cheap?

    I agree. I am tempted to purchase from him but its way too good to be true. The fact is that some of the models he is listing should cost him more to purchase straight from japan and then import them to the US.
    Also, I see that he does not offer any warranty or support.

    This Guy Is Definatley For Real I Ordered A Machine From Him And It Came In Almost New Condition. Basically He Manufactuered Feedback For Two Reasons To Be Able To List 1 Day Auctions To Allow The Buyer To Receive There Machine For Christmas And Second He Has A Ton Of Inventory That Needs To Be Cleared For New Shipments Arriving. Plus He Is Paypal Verified With Over 680+ And It Is A Safe Way To Do Business. You Wont Be Dissappointed You May Never Find A Machine That Low Ever, Trust Me.

    California IS a big state...

    Could be the real deal though. Wish there was more in the description in terms of who the seller is. All sellers I have dealt with of Pachinko's and Pachislo's give some info, contact number, etc...

    Buyer beware....

    Judging the misspells in the post here by the Newbie and on the Auction post, I would venture it to be the same person although they did stop with the All Caps. I may take a stab at one anyway if they are PayPal verified and I am protected. Mike : )

    Not to mention the user name, compare it to the name that Arby came up with in the other thread about these auctions . Also, the message was written in all caps, the board system catches and converts to only first word capped if the entire message is in all caps.

    Anyway, it'd still be interesting to see how transactions work out with this seller.

    Seems to me the poster (diversityind) is very likely the seller. If that's the case, why not just come out and say so?
