Q*bert sold and I didn't even get a reply on my e-mail.....not too happy about that. Not very decent IMHO ! 

Atarimania, I guess you bought it in the package deal ? I mean you bought 6 games but didn't mention all of them ?

[level42]

P.S. I asked too little for the Centipedes obviously

[atarimania]

No the Q*Bert is not for me 

[level42]

Ow shame, I would have hoped it landed in Holland so I could maybe play it one time...

[Thwocker]

It WILL land in Holland - you're welcome to play it (ehm, make that, repair it & play it...) 

Cheers,
Marco

Hi
sorry we get to much emails..... but I am also not happy with your offer 

but you have second chance..... , we bought two Q-berts the other one came in the next container

Not happy with my offer ? My offer was not _that_ far away from your asking price.
That is for a machine that I have not seen yet, and have only seen one picture of without much details. The monitor could be bust, the PCB's could be bust, they could both be bust, in fact there could be no PCB's at all....

As a matter of fact, it is more than I've offered or paid for any other machine before, yes MORE than the Star Wars cockpit. I also have a certain budget. Some people have higher budgets, so such is life.

Business also sometimes means negotiating. Of course when someone comes along who pays the full price it's your choice to sell it to him.

But the story is that you first asked us to let you know what machines we were interested in. So I send you an e-mail saying I'm interested in a Q*bert. No other machine, just Q*bert.
In response you send an e-mail with the the list of machines to me so I'm informed about the price.

Then I respond with an offer and also the reasons why I offered that amount (the total rarity of Q*bert PCB's and since it's not working, I will have to invest in that too, either for a repair or a board-set).

You don't respond. Not even "your bid is too low".

I think that's not the way, just MHO of course.

I wish Thwocker good luck with his Q*bert...he's going to need it.

Since business is business I am still interested in a Q*bert. This is nothing personal, I was just sad that the machine was gone without any communications.

[Belike]

I maybe interested for the Gorf, but it's not in the top 3 on my wanted list.

I asked Paul also about some other cabs/prices and the communications went just fine. Nothing to complain about.
Maybe because of the amount of request/emails he got when the list was published, yours slipped through..

[atarimania]

Same for me, no problem of communication but I supposed that he received a lot of emails about arcade cabinets (and it's not his main business) so maybe he missed your email...

[level42]

No he didn't miss my e-mail because, as he mentions, he found my bid too low but did not reply back.

I don't want to blow this out of proportion, Paul is OK, we had great communication during the Ms.Pac transaction that is just why I was disappointed this time.
