I really enjoy reading this forum. It has taught me a great deal. I have been checking it out now for the past 3 years. I have kept quiet until this afternoon. I could not pass up this opportunity. Nice collection but your no collector are you Aris or v6b? I Have to agree with andycole about the ps games where are they? You say you cant pass up undervalued games. You once told me after my item was only listed 7 minutes that you wanted my game for your boyfriend and were hoping to get it for his birthday (passing yourself off as a female good trick). You could not wait the 7 days for the auction to end and you were going to give me an extra 10.00 for what it was worth if I ended the auction early. You bought my game then I noticed you resold it for 185.00 profit. Its my fault I should checked your feedback before agreeing. Small world that I found you on here. I’m sure others know you are v6b as well. I have seen your comments about criticising other persons on eBay. But you don’t wait for the last nine seconds and bid a price rounded off to 90cents obviously sniping as you would say. No you pray on those without knowledge of the true value of the game. I don’t know what the opposite of snipping is that is why I refer to you as a “vulture“. Has other forum members ever seen Aris post any of items that he has gotten so cheap? Like the Mario crystal screen for 21.00 euros or boxed Octopus for 40 dollars How about my 3 pocketsize game for 60.00? The strange thing is I owe you credit for making me a collector. You can criticize others but I wonder can you take the criticism? By reading some of you other comments It looks like you will have some smart comeback to defend yourself. Oh well one more thing I have copied from you comments….. Bwah-ha-ha! Thanks for making me a collector! After almost 3 years I have 56 boxed I still looking for boxed Flagman, Purple Judge, Egg and like almost everyone I need ym901. Mike you have on of the best forums out here. This truly is a valued website.

After almost 3 years I have 56 boxed I still looking for boxed Flagman, Purple Judge, Egg and like almost everyone I need ym901. Mike you have on of the best forums out here. This truly is a valued website. Man! Can you guys not give this issue a rest??? LOL! Well, had you written this last year, I would have, without any reluctance, put you in your place buddy, however, my days of battling it out with people on this forum over this issue are in the past, and that's where I intend to keep them. Well, okay, maybe one last time just for you, I'll humour you, and respond to your attack on me, but, after that, don't expect any of what you've been spending three years reading about. I must give you some credit though, you obviously have done your homework, I mean, right off the bat, you sided with Andy Cole, someone I've had many battles with, and then you compliment Mike on his forum at the end of your msg. Hmmm... nice touch. It's obvious you're still (get over it dude, it has been three years for crying out loud!!!) sore about the whole 3 PS games for $60 deal I negotiated with you, and are somehow, trying to rationalize that someone who buys some games for a lower price than he ends up selling them for, and/or, BINS items for a price that is below their value, can't be a collector. But of course! How could I possibly not see the logic in that? You wouldn't happen to be related to George Bush would you??? One thing you seem to have overlooked, and this was discussed at length already, so, I'm going to mention it briefly, is that there are a whole lot of other collectors who have done the exact same thing I have done (and may continue to do here and there) but, do it in an anonymous manner. I don't need to prove anything to you, or anyone in this forum. It's obvious this happens, and if you don't believe it, then, you live in a pretty naive little world. The other thing you have to understand, is that I ask a simple question. Sure timing is important, and if a seller is ignorant, that's hardly my fault. It's not my job or responsibility to inform you of a game's value before making an offer. Oh, and what makes you think I was posing as a female? Perhaps I took the persona of a gay man.... Anyhow, I don't even recall doing that, especially since, I've never done that before, but, judging from what you wrote, and the whole extra $10 thing, I'm guessing you must have agreed, but then were going to change your mind. Like I said many times before, to be able to buy a product low, and sell it high, is good business practice period! Why would anyone want to do it the other way around? So to answer your question , yes, I did sell your games, and for a nice tidy profit to boot! They all went to collectors, who I'm sure will be reading this post at some point or another. I made about 10 times the money I spent on them, which enabled me to buy other games etc... You seem to want to make a point to make sure everyone knows that I'm v6b. Well, anyone that has been a part of this forum for sometime would know that, because we had a thread a while ago where we made a list of members of the forum and their ebay IDs. As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure I was the one who created it, so how do you like them apples? Oh, and look at my ID on this forum, it's Aris! And I sign off on all my msgs as Aris or AC. So, as you can see, I've got nothing to hide, ummm.... Tuesdayschild. As for me not being a collector, dude, I've been a collector probably before you even knew these games existed! Years before I even knew ebay existed, I already had a dozen plus games, so, do your homework before flapping those lips of yours. If you still don't think I'm a collector, then why do you think I have these games? Do you think I just haven't sold them yet or something? Check out the high scores buddy, I'm one of the few collectors that actually plays these games, and you can't get scores like that by buying them, playing them, and quickly flipping them. I'm happy to hear that I am responsible for your becoming a collector! I'm also happy that I have influenced your choice of words for laughing (bwah-ha-ha). Welcome to the forum whatever your real name is, and best of luck to you in finding the last 4 games you need. Aris PS I can help you out with two of the games you need (boxed) or three of them (loose). Care to make me a BIN offer? Bwah-ha-ha! TM

Nice collection Aris, finally we have managed to gain a look at it in its entirety. Where are all the G&W accessories like flyers etc that you have got, I'd love to see your complete collection including the stuff stashed in your safe.
LOL at tuesdayschild post, that's one of the funniest things I have read in ages. Aris posing as a shelia, it just can't be. He is way to fat 'n ugly. Either way it's not very nice to make such false accusations in his collection thread (unless you can prove them)
Aris I like that Popeye TT, any game that has a price sticker on it feels very authentic.
Maybe we can do a BIN deal..

Maybe we can do a BIN deal.. OMG, he lives!!! Indy, haven't heard from you in ages, where have you been? In Thailand helping hobbymodel make fake boxes etc... Hey, along with your other two compliments, you forgot to mention I'm too hairy to be a sheila too. Unless of course, I'm posing as a sheila from India..... Sorry to disappoint you mate, but, that's all I got. I sold the flyers earlier this year, and they weren't much to look at anyway. The only things not pictured are my boxed RS (French version, but not Ji21 version) my Lion box, and a loose Silver Fire. (hmmm... I think I have 3 loose Silver Fires, and 3 loose Mego The Exterminators) I think it's time to use the sell function on ebay.... Yeah, that Popeye TT set me back $200. The seller listed three TTs, and I only managed to get one of them before Taki scooped the other two (MCF and Snoopy). Check his listings, he's selling the Snoopy for about $1000 more than he paid for it! The Popeye TT game is mint dude! Not used at all, and has all the bits! According to the seller, it was the best conditioned of the lot she sold, so, I guess I can take solace in that. BIN deal? Why not?? And I promise, I wont wait three years before I attempt to slander you either! ;D Good to see you back, hopefully, you'll visit more often! Oh, and what about your stash? When are you going to grace us with its presence??? AC out

My stash is over at my mums place whilst I renovate the house. Eventually the games will go in some kind display in my games room which is a few months from completion. Dare I mention it is a retro room dedicated to all games from the late 70's to present.
d**n I could have done with some nice decorative flyers, never mind eh.
I'll be popping in a bit more. With the global recession going on I have nothing to do except wait for things to hit bottom before I get busy again.
Be careful what you say about hairy Indian women, my wife may be listening ;D
Hmmm French RS, I'll drop you a PM..

Vintage stuff. I must say that made me laugh!! Hey Tuesdayschild, I agree with you, Aris is a complete crook, but look on the bright side, he is as ugly as sin. But the best of it is this - That collection isn't even his, he got talking to some guy in Asia and he sent him pictures of his collection and now he is trying to pass them off as his own!!!! Unbelievable. And what's that about me supposed to be sending you some games? I don't even know you dude so how did we get to do business. Man you take your story telling to the extreme. You sound more like a hairy arsed bi-sexual Professor Klump! Shame on you!

Fool, Of course it made you laugh! You know how many people tell me they love my posts and how much it made them crack up??? Crook? Ugly as sin?? Collection isn't even mine??? Hairy-arsed bi-sexual Professor Klump? Sheeesh! You're just full of compliments aren't you, you filthy English gnome! Funny you use that "ugly" simile! You know, I got pulled over by the cops yesterday doing 69 in a 50 zone! Lucky for me, it was a female officer! She asked for my drivers licence, registration and insurance, looked at my picture on my licence, and said: "wow, this picture doesn't do you any justice!" She then told me I was lucky I wasn't in a community-safe zone, otherwise, she could have easily doubled my ticket! She then told me to have a nice day and didn't issue me a ticket. I thanked her, told my two-year old to thank her, and went on my merry way. Bwah-ha-ha!!! ;D ;D ;D What? You don't even know me? And I thought, after that night we spent in the hotel, where you begged me to re-enact your favourite game - Manhole, with you, that you said you would never forget me..... you bastard guy!!! The items I'm referring to are actually the Green Judge and pouch. Are you saying that you don't have these items for me??? Hmmm... looks like you're the crook then. Good thing I didn't give you any money for them yet! Geeez! Help a guy get the two of the more difficult PS and NOA games for him, and this is the gratitude I get. You're the best Paul! AC out PS I knew I should have pocketed that PS RS money!!!

Hey, you know me fella, just a cheeky English chappy having some fun. That reminds me of a joke about the irishman on who wants to be a millionaire. The £200 question is who was involved in the great train robbery, Ronnie O' Sulivan, Ronnie Barker, Ronnie Corbett or Ronnie Biggs. The Irishman goes, I'll take the money, I've had a great day. Chris Tarrant says are you mad, you've got phone a friend, ask the audience and 50/50 left!!? The Irishman says I might be mad, but I'm no effing grass!!! Unlike your good self! - That was between me and you baby, why'd you have to hurt me like that Hmmm yes I will send those items soon, this weekend, I promise. I just need to find them first!!!! Last one, a 40st bloke goes for a job and gets turned down, he is really upset and says to the boss, that's fatist that is and the boss goes, no, I think you will find you are the fatest!!!!! Anyway I digress, nice pictures. Flipside.
