Words that are garunteed to get you more money
« on: August 28, 2007, 01:32:24 am »
Um lets see the best title for a thread that I can think of would be this.


For sale

Vintage Arcade game, very rare, classic, not many made, works great, looks great, only minor scratches on the side,a real  ANTIQUE.


That is going to make at least a million bucks not matter what you have for sale.

Hawk
Galaga Restored
Millipede Multicade
Donkey Kong JR.
Mortal Komba
Touchmaster
Steel Talons 2 player helicopter game

How about:

Listen up.  Shut up.  Say a word and I blow your brains through the back of your skull.  Empty your drawer and put the cash in this brown paper sack.  If you make any sudden moves or if I hear an alarm go off you WILL meet your maker.

...and have a nice day.

'Bunch of old arcade machines found in basement of house I just bought. I don't know anything about this stuff or what it's worth I just want them gone so I can set up my model train set. You would be doing me a favour so free to the first person that turns up and takes them away. Games seem to be in good condition and they all seem to turn on and stuff.'

what happened to 'oem'.  I still feel rip off from my last cell phone cover purchase.  Said, original oem, but it was a piece of crap, definitely not original oem.

In my area "A lot" of folks selling on CL seem to think that Multicade = $$$$

Fore sale: almost like new a coctail table with all the classics 48 in all. Yours for a reduced price of $1500. 

I always wonder if they sell any.

Homer's Brain:   Wait, calm down, don't let him know you are too interested.  Reject his first offer.

Homer:  [trying to sound casual]  So um, how much do you want for all this junk?

Seller:  I don't know....make me an offer.  What's it worth to you?

Homer:  I reject your offer.  I won't pay more than $75,000!

Seller:  Sold!!!!

Homer:  Doh!

let's not forget:

I am a wealthy Nigerian business man and need your help.  I have over million dollars and can not cash my checks because I do not have a bank account.  I will send you some checks and all you have to do is cash them.  I would like you to keep 40% of the money and send the other 60% to me.  You will have to wire (Western Union) the money to me in two different accounts.

Nabootoo (account user 1)or Whilatete (account user 2). 

Thank you for your help.

I have an associate who sells 2 to 3 multicade units a week.  She sells them for between $1,299 and $1,699 depending on the cabinet condition,  size of monitor, etc.
