    Default eBay Vendor - aaagameroomshop

    There's just something really wrong about this. Take a look at the prices on all the closed auctions. Absolutely unreal. I can't believe people will pay these kind of prices for POS generic pachislo machines with some cheap Photoshopped pictures printed out on some shmoe's home computer. Super rare, my butt. Isn't there some kind of copyright infringement going on here? And all of the auctions are private too. No doubt a lot of shilling and bid shielding going on to rake people over the coals. *sigh*

    The Beatles Yellow Submarine Slot Machine No Reserve - (eBay item 160183567802 end time Nov-24-07 07:43:09 PST)
    This one went for $400 plus shipping and its just a Super Bingo model that has a Beatles glass over it...

    This is sad...

    They just bought that Ebay business and feedback this year for some big bucks and I guess they are trying to recoupe their investment.

    all the machines are bought wholesale from a good vendor.

    Too bad they won't say what the model was originally.

    There's like three vendors all doing the same thing. All I think are private auctions with tons of bids on these POS machines. Just look at all the closed auctions for 'slot machine', sorted by highest first. All of these machines are in the $450 range and below. Here's a super rare Denver Broncos pachi!

    Denver Broncos
    Harley Davidson
    Rolling Stones

    Sopranos, Dallas Cowboys, Pittsburgh Steelers, NASCAR, Jimmy Buffet, Star Wars, Playboy, Jack Daniels, Elvis, the list goes on. All the same three or so crappy Fisher Price pachislo machines with 60 second graphics pasted on. Lame. Oh, the humanity...

    I can't believe that there's no copyright infringement going on with this.

    Yeah...it is very obvious that the buyers are not aware of the machine types they are getting.

    I have a Super Bingo(it was my 1st machine) and happen to think it is a decent machine(only when its cranking the bonus rounds), but I would not pay $400 for it even if it had a signed picture of Jesus Christ on it.

    Hey JohnnyG, good to see you back, its been awhile

    Are you sure it's his signature? Does it include a certificate of authenticity from his dad? How much you want for it?

    I spend most of my time in IGT land with my slots. My Spin Luck is alive and healthy. As a matter of fact, I want a bumper sticker:

    My Spin Luck pachislo can kick your POS Denver Broncos pachislo's ass

    I guess I meant 'POS' in the sense that they are not worth $400, and not that they weren't good games or poor quality. Please excuse me.

    And hell, why didn't I think of that (marketing a Jesus pachislo machine). The bonus round could be a Heaven/Hell thing.

    No offense taken.
    I agree with you, those machines are the most basic you can get.
    One step above spinning the reels by hand.

    Here's a machine that would be a good match for that, too!

    This was my first pachislo, and it's actually pretty good, IMO. Old school LED display on the right side of the reels shows a devil or angel dancing with decent jazzy music during the 'Angel bonus'.

    It's just sad but we can't do anymore about it than we have already done. We educate anyone willing to learn if they come here and we can save them a ton of money but first they have to come here.

    Most of these buyers are generally the one purchase and forget it types, I would imagine. If they only knew they could have purchased that same machine for $75, I'm sure they wouldn't be happy about it.

    I like this lie:
    You really have to see these machines to understand how cool they are because our pictures just cannot give them justice, the approximate measurements are 32”tall, 19” wide, and 14” deep (YES THEY ARE REALLY THE SAME SIZE AS MACHINES IN VEGAS!!!).

    Hrmmm, I've never been to Vegas nor have I seen a "real" Vegas slot, they could've gotten me with that lie.

    You mean three American slots. If I am not mistaken, from left to right, that's a Triple Diamond 5-line, a Double Wild Cherry and a Sigma Treasure Wheel Double Jackpot I think.

    Don't ask, it's a sickness and I accept it.
