DAMMIT!
« on: August 09, 2007, 10:14:21 am »
DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT!  There was a Williams Slugfest on Phoenix Craigslist yesterday for $150.  $150!  It looked like it was in decent condition in the pictures.  I e-mailed the guy an hour and a half after the listing was posted and it was already gone.  I just know one of these jackass dealers who spam Craigslist constantly and fight amongst each other in their Craigslist postings for goodness sake flew in and grabbed this thing up, will spend $25 restoring it and then want to sell it for $1,000.

 :angry: :badmood: :banghead: :cry:

Hopefully I'm wrong and someone who actually really wanted this game like I do picked it up.  But . . .  probably not.

Which one?  The awesome EM pitch and bat Slugfest or the crappy modern remake Slugfest?

The good, old one.  The one that rocks my socks.  Yeah, that one.

Wow.  That is a pricey game, too.  I love the old pitch and bats, that would have been a major major score.
