    Default ROCKY in my near future?

    Thanks everyone...Looks like ROCKY will be the one !!! I pretty much wanted that all the while, but needed to hear other input..... Now I just need to find one at a decent price? Slot-Pachinko.com has one for $549 + $69 S+H and Imatrix has one on e-bay for $349 + $75 s+h ? I have heard mixed things about Imatrix? Have they gotton any better with their packing? I had received my Star Wars machine from Slot-Pachino (Texasauctions on e-bay) and everything was great......Still nervous about Imatrix !!! Any input on them would great - It's a $200 difference in price.....Thanks

    Since you are already a satisfied customer of TA, why don't you call them and see if they are willing to negotiate a better price with you. Many retailers are willing to do that if someone else is openly advertising the same item at a much lower price. Good luck!

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking -- but I don't want it to come all banged up? If you know what I mean and then have to deal with getting it replaced?

    dattia -- I did send them an e-mail asking to make a deal....Think I will call Curt @ TA and ask him over the phone.....Thanks for your help...

    I bought my Rocky through IMATRIX. If you email david he will probably even lower his price further. Let him know that you have to pay a $30 customs fee so he should at least take that off. My machine arrived very clean from them, but it was not packed really well. I had a problem with the lights and he was very quick to reply to my problems. For $200 if it was me, I would use them again knowing that he is VERY quick to reply to all my questions.

    Sorry, I was just picturing Curd making a deal to anyone besides himself.
    Meanwhile, somewhere in Oklahoma.

    Curt will end up talking you into paying an ADDITIONAL hundred bucks or so...
    and leave you feeling like you got the deal of a lifetime.

    For a few minutes or so... until the reality of it kicks in.

    Funny you should say that....Curt did reply and made an offer and made it sound like the best thing since sliced bread .....May go with Dave @ Imatrix and give them a shot....Still a better price....

    Update -- Also asked Curt (@ Texasauctions) for a deal on a Lord of the Rings pachinko also and he replied that his one on e-bay was as low as he could go and the last one until July...I know I can get it cheaper than $349 + s&h, someplace else....Too bad...I was happy with my Star Wars purchase from Texasauctions...
