    This happens often. It's not weird to get an older arcade machine this cheap, and the one that's being sold for nearly $2,000 probably won't sell. It's an older game that nobody really wants, as any legit classic arcades probably already have it. There are no "magical hidden fees" that will prevent you from getting what you bid on, unless you go to pick it up, listen to some silly demands, and decide to fork over extra bucks like a fool.

    The most you may have to do is rent a truck, but the game will still be given to you for what you bid. You can get simpler JAMMA games for around $100 at times. Arcade machines lose their value when they're not definite moneymakers anymore.
    I have 3 powerseller ebay accounts; Iknow how the hell it works. If the seller doesn't get in the range he wants and you win the bid, you aren't getting JACK.

    In the world of assholes who don't honor their contracts, sure.

    Also, nobody cares how big your eBay penis is. What's relevant to the conversation is how much arcade machines are worth, which you don't seem to understand. This is an old dust-gathering machine with cracks and possible other forms of damage, and it's being sold "as-is."

    Really, just because someone else is able to clearly explain something doesn't mean you have to get butthurt because you can't do the same. Believe it or not, everything interesting in life isn't necessarily expensive, and not every person trying to sell something wants to rip you off.

    And what I am telling you is 90% of "as-is" sells do not get shipped out/picked up unless the seller got what he or she wanted with or without a Buy It Now price.

    I used "as-is" all the time just to get more views/bids. Countless times they received nothing.

    Isn't this what reserves are for, and isn't there some rule on ebay if you don't sell it just because "you don't like the offer" (if you didn't set a reserve)?

    So you're a dishonest seller and you have no problem admitting it? Cool.

    Well, I've purchased plenty of "as-is" goods on eBay without any issues in relation to whether I've given them all the money they wanted or not, and that included transactions in the hundreds of dollars. As aforementioned, not everyone tries to back out of their contracts to make an extra buck.

    So, to be a little more on-topic, anyone who wants an old arcade game should surf the 'Bay every now and then. You can find a lot of bargains on there, especially since many arcades -- particularly independent ones where owners can't hold onto products after the fact -- have gone the way of the Dodo.

    Also, JAMMA titles were extremely common, and all you need is a game-free but working cabinet and some PCBs to start rockin'.

    Yes, what he's doing is not honoring the contract.

    Oh, the secrets of Ebay. 99% +feedback with 10,000+ on 3 accounts and I did the "as-is" crap all the time on wholesale lots of phones.

    "Lot of 500 Blackberry 8300" -> Set it at $500 with no reserve/buyitnow -> Know how to get around Ebay -> Profit

    Edit - Before you say, "I'd just leave you negative feedback" please know almost anyone that sells large amounts on Ebay knows 1 phone number to get any of them removed. Most powersellers leave their feedback at 98~99% on purpose because people with 3,000 Sales + 100% feedback is sketchy.

    Was rifling through my room and found my old Tribes disk, man that game was awesome (or maybe it was just because it was the first shooter game I ever played). Flying on jet packs and building turrets was great.
