He does have Operation Wolf

https://www.adverts.ie/arcade-retro/arcade-machine/21283378

He bought Operation Wolf on adverts a few months ago for €750

€1100 mark up , that's some profit he's looking for.

I think we know what sort of chancer this guy is, and we know he reads this thread, so he knows we know too!

Some interesting things but far too pricey and he gets very defensive when challenged, at all.

Pity.

I mean, we all like a bargain but we can acknowledge that there will always be a fair price to pay for anything, perhaps a little more than we hoped as a buyer, perhaps a little less that we hoped as a seller, but there is a place in the middle to meet, and I get this wisdom for years of playing Theme Park on the 3DO and the negotiation mini-game!

But, not this seller, seems he has little interest in striking a deal and has ample storage space, because he'll be hanging onto this stuff for a long time.

Also, he appears to have some sort of delusions skips, not the prawn cocktail type but the ones that hold crap.
It could be interpreted as Beckettian, certainly he believes a skip is imminent and, yet, it never arrives.

Looks like there's 3 accounts at least. The guy, the 'woman' with the relisted alien and Breda who commented laughing emojis on one of the alien woman's sold terminator listing.

This ****e exists but I get two offers withdrawn in less than an hour (a month apart) on a PC case I have collecting dust...

I've always liked the cabinet side art of op wolf (thats about it :pac: ) ,but this game was always a hard sell so not at €1100 and not at €750 game , its barely a 300-400 quid game taking in the whole nostaligia **** .

A classic CRT is both in an imaginary skip and not in an imaginary skip (a skip if you will)

Jaysus, I remember the Fame and Fortune set being really bad, but that's on another level.

I guess no one wants to travel to New York or Las Vegas during this pandemic so thats why its not being used as much.....

I've screen grabbed it for future reference

OK - so this is not arcade related but I just had to post it as I knew you'd all appreciate such a bargain for a real fixer upper opportunity.

Apparently it "Needs a bit of doing up"

They made a typo on the description, dont think the "e" was meant to be in "epoxy"

When I see these items, I find myself looking for the chequered floor tiles and the option to skip...

I can't wait to see what happens when the wheel is full.
