    Default New to PachiTalk

    Greetings!

    I am new to PachiTalk, but have been a vintage Pachinko enthusiast for a some time now. I thought I was nearly alone in my passion for these classic treasures, but was surprised to learn that there are so many other people out there who share the same addiction as I do (some, I have noticed, are in it much further than me!!).

    I have enjoyed reading many of the discussion threads and topics that the community has posted, and it was interesting to see that many of you have encountered some of the same obstacles as I did when attempting to restore and repair your machines. I am looking forward to providing this community with assistance, as well as, asking for advice when I get stumped.

    As other new members have done in this forum, I am posting photos of the machines in my collection. I have restored many others, however these are the machines that I have kept for myself: http://www.pachitalk.com/forums/memb...ollection.html

    I look forward to discussing and sharing information about my passion with a group that is interested in the topic. My wife has been a trooper, but she's really just not into it.

    Thanks!

    Welcome to PachiTalk Jeff!!

    I love your pachis!!

    Vintages really really interest me but I do not have one in my collection yet, something I do hope to remedy one day, but in the meantime I enjoy reading about others and seeing the pics,

    thanks for introducing yourself and sharing your pics

    Many here share your pain, but you have found the right group. Based on the extent of your addiction, I predict you will be a regular contributor, and likewise will make many friends here. Welcome!
