Is the matress HUO?

NIB?

Better than NIB?

Shopped?

Does it come set on free play?

Just ignore him. He keeps emailing me for years. I finally said in one
email: I won't trade a machine for a mattress, but will gladly trade it for
cash, money order or a cashier's check. He stopped emailing me after that.
ON THE OTHER HAND, it's a Sealy, dude...

Just tell him your price for the game with shipping, take a 50 cents
off for the trade of his mattress and tell him to put it out in his
front yard, and you will send UPS with a will call tag the to have the
mattress shipped to you. He never wrote me back after that.

I'd sleep on a concrete floor in a sleeping bag before I'd trade a pin for a
mattress.

I know what this deal is. He had emailed me on every game I had on Mr.
Pinball. He gets motel mattresses dirt cheap. He is a mattress
distributor. It took a while but I finally found someone who knows him
personally. He also has the ability to shuffle new, poor quality motel
mattresses for so-so used mattresses. Kind of like money laundering.
They may be Sealy, but they are special manufacturer and not high
quality. The label looks good to the motel industry.

I was told by my source that he then takes the games, if he gets any,
to an auction and makes a huge profit. Especially considering he paid
nothing for the mattress. He apparantly has only pulled this scam off
a couple of times succesfully.

So in essence you would be trading a game which has a value of $800, or
more for, for a $200 mattress.
