Title: generic ideal 55
Post by: zadd on February 01, 2008, 05:08:19 pm
Great deal on a generic Ideal 55. I emailed this guy because he's near me to see how much he wanted fror the machine and if he would end the auction for local sale . He told me he would end the auction at $500.00 and that these sell for $1000-$1500 so that would be a great deal. :jawdrop: Where are these people gettting there info? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120217402425&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123

He must be related or be buddies with that guy TWATSON on ebay selling his sliders for 1500-2000 without racks and coin mechs...

I'd say it is worth at least $1200 if he throws in the bumper sticker in on the deal  :biggrin:

Just bid and be the high bidder and you can then offer him that price when he realizes he won't get more for it than your bid...
without rack and coin mech.. 175.00 max

I sent the guy an email telling him good luck on his auction and that it think he has been mis informed on the value of his machine. He just sent me an email asking what I thought it was worth. I gave him the break down on the value of the parts and that the lack of his made it worth around 100-150.
