Just out of curiosity... does your wife let you display your testicles up on the mantle at home? Or are they hidden away in a closet?

If I wasn't such a nice guy I'd fire a flaming comment back at you. However I am a nice guy so I will just ignore your juvenile attempt at humiliating the relationship I enjoy with my wife.

When I am ignoring someone, I don't normally say anything.

Wow.... did you get your sense of humor taken away with the testicle removal? It was a joke dude.. and I guess I'm wrong, but I thought that was pretty clear. I was just messing with you, but by all means, flame me back if it'll make ya feel better.
I'm glad you have a great relationship with your wife... maybe if it was even BETTER, you could joke about it.
LiquidFire:
When I don't want to PO the seller, I just say take my number and call me when you will accept $(insert amount).
The easier you can make it on the seller, "I will come and give you cash, walk the ferret and take the cabinet with me the same day."
Your offer all of a sudden looks better than anyone elses.
No one can get mad at you and man, have I got the deals that way. Of course, you also lose out when you don't 'step up'. But hey, there is always another deal to be had.
ChadTower:
I've done that and had guys practically throw me off their property. I've also done it and had guys call me back a week later and say "take it today and you get $50 off your offer". It really depends on the seller.
Either way, if you don't have the COH, just pass on it and wait for the next one. People keep saying Baby Pac is rare but just look around the forum right now at how many people are getting them or talking about getting them. It's not rare, once you're in on the local collectors' circuit a Baby Pac isn't hard to turn up.
Green Giant:
"Baby Pac-Man is an arcade pinball/video game hybrid made by Bally Midway in 1982. Upon inserting a coin, the game begins its typical maze-style play like in the original Pac-Man, but upon entering an "escape" tunnel, a pinball is launched below on the main playfield where the player can gain extra points. The monsters are noted for being extremely aggressive, fast, and unpredictable, frequently breaking the rules of movement established in Namco's official Pac-Man games. Also, the game initially starts off with no energizers: the player is forced to earn them in the pinball portion of the game, making Baby Pac-Man notoriously difficult despite its infant hero."
If the original game works and just needs a new cap kit, $250 doesn't sound horrible. Maybe I am not old enough, but I don't remember seeing alot of arcade-pinball hybrid games out there. But you have to clarify everything since it sounds like there is a whole bunch that can go wrong. Find out every flaw and use each one to cut the price down a little bit.
"Finding one today is rare, and they tend to be expensive when they are found, and are considered difficult to restore due to their design. " http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1195382
