Pharaoh- What do you think?

[waitloser]

I have the opportunity to buy a pharaoh from a private party for $100 bucks. Is it worth it and is the game fun?

Can you find out a manufacturer or can you get a picture of it?

Haven't been able to find any info on it yet. Looks like a pretty simple machine - that is, no special game play. But if you like the theme, it should certainly be worth the $100 - assuming you're buying it locally and won't have to pay shipping.

Anything you buy on eBay or from a dealer will usually cost you $60 to $70 to ship. That means you're getting this for the equivalent of $30 to $40 bucks, which is a pretty good price for a basic machine.

Pharaoh is a Max Allied machine from 2001. I think it was the last machine made by Max Allied. It's a 5-Line A-type. It looks like a very plain machine.

Pachi_Sloter, Where in NE Ohio are you? I grew up near Cleveland - actually about 50 East in Geneva.

Aren't the users around this place great? You guys can find anything! 8-)

Waitloser,

It looks to me to be somewhat plain, but for $100 and no shipping. I would say that is a fair price. Any tokens?

[waitloser]

200 tokens
thanks for the quick replies

[Tulsa]

200 isn't going to be enough to play with, so factor in another $40 for 500 tokens, shipped.

I like the looks on this one and the theme is great. Anytime you can get a standard Pachislo like this for 100.00 or less retail you are doing ok. I say go for it!
