ebay machine looks clean

this machine looks clean, although I requested a closeup of the cell to be sure.

PACHINKO MACHINE - eBay (item 140302220108 end time Feb-24-09 13:04:26 PST)

doesn't sound like the seller knows what he's talking about, but if it really was in the original box for 30 years, it could be one of those sent over from japan that we see on ebay for high prices every once in awhile, advertised as "new".

i'm not sure the brand, it's not sanyo or nishijin... sankyo? I know that compirate will know.

wish I didn't have so many, or I would seriously consider this one.

saw that one on ebay and found the wording of the Ad and the Q&A's interesting

Pity it's US buyers only...

Not sure of the manufacturer, tried resizing the pics bigger but still can't see

[who922]

What in the Sam Hill is a parlor frame??? Is he making that stuff up or do you think he really doesn't know? Maybe he got some misinformation. Or if Roger Clemens was helping him he could have "misremembered"!

[luckydog]

i'm sure he would get more if he had kept the orginal box no matter how bad it looked!!

[rubberratt]

If the story is true, that could be quite a find... then again, could be (coughs)

[Moparformances]

i doubt he has a clue what he has... thats could be quite a find for the winner.. hay chewy can u post the close up when u get it

early congrats to the winner

He doesnt know what he has except that it is a Pachinko Machine. I bet its in great shape and would be a good purchase.

Good eye, it's a Sankyo (and that's with a capital 'S'!)- I matched the overflow tray and it's surrounding flash to other machines I have pictures of.

[MrGneiss]

Looks like a nice pachi..too bad you need a parlor to use it!!

[mudfud]

OK. here's the pix. it is in nearly new condition, almost as good as JACKSEA's machines.

it is a Sankyo (thanks compirate!)

if anyone here wants to bid, let me know so I don't run the price up. i'll wait until the end and see if it's still under $80

[MrGneiss]

That looks really nice, wish I had money!!

[hanabi]

Looks even better in those pics

I'd love it too, real shame it's not over here...




just spotted a missing nail...and some pink stuff in the top play tray??

Yeah, yeah, I'm just trying to soften the blow...

[mudfud]

you sure have a sharp eye, too!

say, how far are you from london's airport? some relatives are going on holiday to england soon, and IF they have room for an extra bag, I was considering bribing them to take a pachinko...

I'd so love to be a fly on the wall at the Airport security checks for that one, but London is one hell of a trek, been there once...

It's a super kind offer, but I think I will eventually manage to get another vintage over here, I'm the eternal optimist!!

Good photos there MudFud.

One of my machines has the exact same cell, just different center.

It will be interesting to see learn the expiration date and see how it compares to the one I have.

Oh it looks like I was mistaken then, there is no missing nail,
as it is not there on your cell either (top left)

[Moparformances]

very nice looking machine.. someones going to get a nice gem there

no biding for me.. go for it mudfud

[JACKSJE4]

What a find!! Looks almost as good as new. Cell in good shape and all parts present and accounted for. The wood frame is even clean - no stains.

Good luck to anyone from here who bids on it.

[mudfud]

just got it for $50. told them I'd pay extra for a good box, with lots of padding and boards on top (sent them the picture)

you guys are a bad influence on me

Congrats ! ! !
