    Default Pachi-World

    After seeing the Speed Racer pachinko that Rubberratt got, I knew I had to have one.
    My wife said NO MORE!! but I had to get it. (I had to buy her a turquoise ring to keep her happy) This by far is the most I've paid for a pachi.
    Rather than talk about the machine (see RR's videos) I thought I would share my experience with Pachi-World.
    The first contact was with someone that wasn't very fluent in english. The second e-mail was more readable and after nailing down the price, payment was made. They told me it would take 3 weeks for shipping (It arrived 3 weeks to the day) They contacted me at one point to see if I wanted a cyclic or parlor machine.
    As I got home from work FedRex was just leaving.
    The box was a little larger than the usual sized pachi shipping box. I should note that fedRex didn't even put a single ding in the box.
    It also had a label that read : Caution, Fragile, High Insurable value. Upon opening the box, I found a well packaged machine. It was packed in styro peanuts (So many that I had to get the snow shovel out to clean them up)
    The machine was triple wrapped in thick bubble wrap with a 1" thick piece of styrofoam taped over the glass.
    After removing the bubble wrap, I found a machine that looked Brand new.
    It came with a ball tray, about 4 or 5 hundred Gold balls.
    It didn't have legs mounted, but that's no problem since I'm currently working on a 2 pachi cabinet with a ball lifter. The transformer wasn't labeled, so I'm not sure how many amps it is. So far I've played it about 20 hours and it never gets hot.
    All in all, I would say that Pachi-world did me right.
    Now I gotta go play some more Speed! (Although Cutie Honey is getting lonely. I might have to turn her on)

    Does the Speed Racer pachinko video look like the slot machine video?

    There is a new live Speed Racer movie due out this summer.

    The video looks like the Speed Racer 2 slot. Also I forgot to mention that it came with volume controls installed. It is an STV cell. I'll post some pics as soon as I figure out how to resize them to 600x800.

    I paid 449.00 plus 79.00 to ship it from Hawaii. (took 3 weeks but it was worth it!!) It has been hit and miss contacting them. I'm trying to get other new titles, but they have only e-mailed back once. I've tried to ask more questions, but they haven't responded.

    Good eye! It is a polar kit. I also have their BTTF DeLorean that I plan to build a drag car out of. The Speed car has four extra bright red LED's in the tail lights. (It a distraction for the guy in the other lane. They always red light) Speed has Never Lost!!

    I have dealt with Dave, he seems to be a "staight up" guy. Which machines did you get BB? How long did they take. Is this vendor worth dealing with ?
