    Default 1956 Matuya single shot...

    Crusty, yet delicious...

    chinese labeled Pachinco machines.Chinese designed logo on eBay (end time 10-Mar-10 07:26:43 GMT)

    I "won" it

    I can hear Suzanne now: "Yeah, you're a real winner..." (insert slapping here )

    PS: It's one of those rare "Chinese" pachincos (in China, they spell it with a "c")

    Update.
    I think I got hosed.
    The seller sent me an e-mail stating that he was very disappointed in the bidding being that he passed up a $150 offer on it once upon a time.
    Communication immediately shut off after that.
    I usually wouldn't bid on something from a seller with zero feedback. Case in point.
    I'm pretty sure he has no intention of going through with this auction.

    Sorry to hear about your turn of events. I would report him/her to ebay for renegging on the auction.

    I think this is the same guy in Oklahoma city selling on craigslist

    Pachinko Machine(s)

    It's the same two machines in background on the Ebay sale.

    Looks like you sniped me out Sioux. You got me by $1. I got the same "disappointed" sentiment from him when asking for additional photos. That kind of swayed me from raising my sniping threshold.

    Sorry about the "hosing". Thats never cool!!

    I was just teasing. There won't be a delivery. I've been bailed upon.

    The guy is a hoser.
    He finally got back to me, but, whereas he quoted me $30 shipping before auction end, he now says he'll need $60. Then he whined more about the auction price.
    I think I'll be writing this one off as a lesson learned.

    Why don't you see if there is a member in the Oklahoma City area who can pick it up for you and ship it to you?

    Did you leave him bad feedback? Other bidders will know what your experience was that way.

    He never responded to the message I sent Him.

    He does have a Phone # in the new listing if you have not contacted him up front and personnel.

    He lists in it the cost to send it to you WHICH HE DIDN'T

    Nishijin Pachinko Machine. Deluxe Super/Sophia - eBay (item 170458880071 end time Mar-20-10 20:01:15 PDT)

    If it were Me, I'd leave him a - Feedback after contacting E-Bay.
