Title: Williams Defender for sale
Post by: ckong on June 01, 2010, 12:16:12 PM: In the Netherlands (not by me): http://verzamelen.marktplaats.nl/automaten-overige/351306347-defender-williams.html

The seller says that the cab is not working, unknown cause, could be anything.

Bid as you wish, but do it with care. I made a few offers on this cab. Well, actually, not this one. The seller first had a photo of another cab posted, one on which you saw gameplay and which was in better shape. On that photo I could also see a part of the cab of which you now see the photo's of in the advert. So the seller changed the photo's, and thus the cab. And the price is getting too high for my wallet at the moment. Enough reason for me to withdraw .

Still this could be a good deal, that's why I'm posting this for someone who might be interested.

The designers were crazy. The controls are insane. Just MHO.

At a certain point, the highest bid from someone was â‚¬ 400 and I quit the bidding and removed my biddings. Yesterday the highest bidding was not more than â‚¬ 200 and today there are no biddings at all anymore!!

Yeah, it also says "reserved" so maybe there's a deal going on waiting for pick-up....

i have a mint defender and its the only game i wont sell.

I didn't bother actually. Congratulations with the cab :)

I checked your post history and I noticed that you didn't introduce yourself yet. This is of course no obligation, but it would be nice if you could tell something about how you are related with this great hobby.
