Free Delivery TO YOUR DOOR anywhere in the USA!!

I kind of feel bad. No one has bids on any of his stuff

I was kind of thinking of selling after I build my second machine...  :-[
Not anymore. Than again he might be asking too much. Ya think   ???

everybody allways has the idea of building and then selling, realistically you won't become rich doing it otherwise with as many people who allready have built their own here the market would be flooded allready

The only way to make good money is to build it cheap and sell in volume. Like they did with that crappy Midway cabinet at Target.
