    Default $20 Random Pachinko on CL w/o picture.

    Occasionally you can come up a great deal from craigslist.

    I got this one for $20. The ad had no picture, but when i heard the old mans voice, I knew the machine would be in great condition.

    Here are the Obligatory pics...
    Interesting that the date stickers are covered by part of the machine.

    Leads me to believe that there is a mass conspiracy by old folks,, who horde vintage machines in great shape..


    Nice Find

    update: this machine is on its way to north carolina tomorrow, as sigrah's first.

    he was working so hard to find one out there, johnny and I decided to help him out a little bit

    cell's in great shape, tracks need a little cleaning, and I sent a piece of acrylic for him to cut down (correct width, but too tall, came off a single shot)

    anyhow, we expect pix and posts from him

    Very nice C machine! For $20?! I do not see many machines for sale out here locally. Seems like there is much better availability the further west you go...

    You're very welcome. Hope you like it.
    It does need some shining up, but it looks to be very complete. Including the elusive ball track cover. Cell is in primo shape, and has no water marks!
    It'll be a nice little project! Make sure you read the sticky on how to clean your machine. It is a great guide!

    I know I must be doing SOMETHING right, when my biggest problems involve having too many pachis, and not enough room to work on them!
