And Good luck at those prices...

... All those in Favor of a post and user Deletion Say "Aye" :D
 
Pristine condition....erm no, not even close but at least it looks that this one does actually exist which is a good start ;)

Definitely not pristine! Cracked plastic, grubby flippers, worn corners all visible at just a glance. Sure, it's in fine condition, and certainly a very good base upon which a pristine machine could be built, but "pristine" to me means "as new" or "better than new".
 
total scam. If you read the text he also has an IJ and a MM for sale. Interesting they are too lazy to list the AFM that is clearly visible with the first machine

Do we suspect the same scammer as on ebay or a different one?
 
Indeed it is. If you copy a segment of the description and google it, you'll see where it's been lifted from.
This is a good tip for anyone a little suspect about any eBay listing. Just copy a bit of the text, preferably with some nice keywords, and paste it into a Google but wrap it in double-quotes: "..."

The double-quotes make Google do an exact phrase match rather than just attempt to find all the words scattered throughout the entire page.
 
Holy crap - is "This game has been completely disassembled, cleaned, polished, serviced and brought back
to as close to "Minty Fresh" condition as possible" an industy-standard phrase?

"Minty Fresh" is so yesterday, "Fresh Peach" is now almost par with BNIB ;)
 
Got to admit, the guy who seems to have originally coined the much-borrowed phrase looks to do fantastic looking resto jobs.
 
I bet that LW3 went below the radar of most eBay searches due to the split spelling of pinball:

Pin ball Machine (Lethal Weapon 3)
