it did take me a bit to update the thread & i do apologize for the delay; (graveyard doubletime+mother's day weekend)Why did you even respond to me initially if you had a deal pending? Never got a reply past the initial one. Maybe mark off what's sold?
i wont try to make up excuses, but there is quite a bit going wrong lately &
as a generalization, i would assume it to be far more rude to ignore potential buyers\interested parties. (aka ghosting)
in most other marketplace, you message back interested parties & try to work out the details [without ignoring inbound messages]I guess that's fair.
I think its best to also update the ad stating it isn't first to pm or even first in line with an agreement waiting on you to provide payment details.
That differs quite a bit from how business is typically done here.
quite a few people messaged all at the same time (literally ALL within a few hundred seconds of eachother, so splitting hairs on 'who was first' seems a bit much)

digdug came first technically, but mr do plays in a similar fashion but with addition of a singular projectile you can use to kill enemies-is this game copy of dig dug or is it the other way around? looks like both are 1982 games.
i prefer the music\sounds\graphics of mr do over digdug (& also the market-price lol)
but to each their own ;3
thats so coolThis game, or rather Ver. A, is where I got my name. I've used the name ever since including my Hotmail which I still use today. I won two arcade tournaments back then on Soul Edge using Mitsurugi.![]()

(tho my hotmail account got deleted years ago sadly haha)
i was thinking it was revB that had mits added but i could be wrong,
plasticfactory will have to verify in the test menu in a few days-
i DID mention this quirk in the youtube vid i sent tho

it can be quite exciting finding a "deal" or having one in the queue, & missing out can be frustrating- don't take it personally you did nothing wrong.: /
I sent an offer for the 6 within ~30 minutes of the thread going live. I can't speak to any other conversations that happened privately.
my grandma scolded me for selling but upon hearing you live where she was born assumed it was meant to be lol
-------------------
anyways,
to quickly surmise;
i'm not a retail store with a line of customers-
i did NOT try to squeeze anyone for more money or choose based on cheapest shipping costs;
i just was trying my best to keep the PCB themselves safe in transit (a bulk order is by far the safest method);
i have some serious\sad horror stories of damaged parcels in shipment...

had the buyer fallen through -
i would have worked methodically down the list
-
i do hope that im not causing too many problems\beef
as i think the arcade-projects community is wonderful
& i've made some incredible purchases over the years
pls dont let one mediocre experience sour things :c
(i'll try to add some more of my closeted boards within 24-48hrs)
thanks guys, i really DO mean it!
cheers,
