    the one i saw at Goodwill for $15.00 did, Now I'm sorry I didn't rescue it anyhow,

    the front looked terrible, the glass was missing, the back had 1/2 the parts missing.

    some soul did save it because it was gone the next day

    the main reason i like to leave the nails alone,is because i actually took some brasso to my first pachi about 30 years ago.it took a lot of time to do it,only to have them return to the same dull look a few months later,so why bother?once you polish brass,you have to keep doing it to keep up the shine.in my opinion,that time would be better spent playing instead.

    I just wanted to remove someone else's neglect. once I got them clean then I wanted to protect them some, so I used polish/wax and then they shined like new. Then I couldn't stop. I know it will turn again but I think my environment might be better than the previous owner's so it might take a while.
