    That is a beauty...and the Reserve has now been met. I like that you get a full-hopper dump no matter what winning combination you hit

    I put in the bid that hit the reserve and then bidder 3 shot at it four times till he found my high mark. He's trying to keep his bids low. So it's set for a good snipe, don't bid though, wait for the snipe, you'll only drive bidder 3 higher and force yourself to go higher.

    Gainesville TX. is only about 4 hours for me..

    Too far for me but if that snipe on a Fury Convertable worked out I could have picked it up on the way back.

    Nice one, it deserves a good home. I like the fruit reels on the bally, I hate the bar and "blank space" reels.

    whole dollar amounts Tulsa come on give this a good home ...always end in a odd number in change it could be the difference between winning and losing an item .( i.e. $361.98) that $1.98 has won me quite a few auctions and pissed off allot of bidders .I still cant get over the condition of the wood on this machine it almost looks museum quality from the pictures and its not huge from the dimensions given a great piece of slot memorabilia .

    Just think of the possibilities

    you could add stop buttons and a spin knob to it

    I'm sure we could find a spin luck wheel assembly for you to add to it also ...but you'll have to take that tacky handle off first !!!

    My interest in it is already past. While the wood is nice enough looking, I don't need another "project machine". Jeff, remember at the time of that bid, it was merely a hunt for the reserve. You don't employ your extra $1.98 until your final snipe bid. Rookies...

    Not to mention that once I removed that abomination on the side of that box, it would only leave a nasty gaping hole that I would have to repair.

    Bidder #5 has upped their bid on this one. Chances are they aren't going to be around for the snipe at this point. The guess will be how high did bidder 5 go?

    its still dirt cheap at $360.00 all i can say is its one nice looking project machine... and it aint made out of particle board either will be around when your spin luck becomes the saw dust it was made out of and then some .

    I've been out of town and off the internet for a couple of days, but I would have loved to have won this machine and made a trip down even from iowa to pick it up. Great price on a collectible worth MUCH more.
