How can Rusty pass this one up?

Here are two Pachis for $50 on Craisgslist in Houston!!! If only I had a contact in Houston.

You are vicious!

[Sid]

he's driving there to pick them up as we speak!

[compirate]

I've 'made' people spend plenty on this board! It's fun

[who922]

I would have to say it is more jealous than vicious. If it was Dallas, my brother lives there. And how can we let those Pachis not go to good homes? I guess that's how I ended up adopting children too!!

[mudfud]

at least our pachi children don't need their diapers changed or regular feedings... just a little cleaning and staying indoors, eh?

pachitalk stimulates the economy

wow 8 hr and no takers??

some one need to put on the pachi talk cape and fly to the rescue??

Oh... I'm watching them! and the other ads here in Houston. This is certainly a quandry for me.

As you've seen in another post, my most recent project has been my daughters car (we fixed the A/C, truck electric poper, fender dient, etc.). Now we've found that a leak in our home that has caused us to pull up the flooring in a small powder room, the utility room, the dining room and the kitchen. This old boy is worn out.

However, I've also spoken with an 'Asian Antique/Decorator' shop that might take a machine in for consignment. Thus, I might be able to swing buying a few to restore and then selling for a small profit. If I can make this work, I'll be moving the machines shortly.

However, if any of you are close, then you should make an offer and get them. The two for $50 looks to be in great shape.

Thanks for all the assistance on pointing out the 'deals'!

sorry to hear that you're having so much home maintenance to do. I sympathize, as I've been planning a laundry room remodel (before the water heater blows up or the old galvanized leaks anymore), and installing a used washer/dryer, and doing some lock replacements (deadbolts can be so frustrating sometimes).

really distracts from the pachinko work, and almost makes shining cells and pins a pleasure

if you find somewhere to sell the pachinko's at a profit, then you'll have a great outlet for your work.

i'm thinking of selling "rescued pachinkos" locally for $100. seems that I keep finding "great deals". just low balled another single shot, just like the one I gave my mother in law, and I got it for $25... go figure. guess what lots of my friends and relatives are getting for bdays and Xmas this year?

[who922]

That's the reason I haven't cleaned up any of my machines so I can definitely sympathize. I have been remodeling the house we moved into in November since we moved in and I'm still not finished. Actually I kinda wish something would ruin my floors so I could get rid of the horrible tile.

I guess Pachi Rescue could kinda be like the Geek Squad!

[mudfud]

that's what I love about all you guys. the hands-on, fix it yourself attitude.

heck, i'd take a bunch of pachitalkers on a deserted island anyday. we'd probably have running hot water and internet by the end of 2 weeks!

the mechanical nature of the pachinko's is what I think is so attractive and why we can sit and chat about our machines for hours... thank god we have a bunch of like-minded people to talk to

My wife is also "thrilled" that I have found some like-minded people to converse with regarding Pachinkos. She is a strong and patient woman, but I could tell she was reaching her threshold about the time I stumbled onto this site.

[mudfud]

indeed. where else can we find others like us that really appreciate what we're doing!

always glad and impressed to see your posts, jeff. I learn a lot from your work.

Well, I contacted the seller and both machines have been sold.

Anyone we know?
