    Nice!!! Looks to be in great shape as well and glad you were able to get to the seller in time. You know, I have one that is the manual shooter and it is a blast. Since receiving the electric shootert version I've discovered it's even more fun. I've changed my mind and am going to keep the electric shooter one now.

    Meant to tell the story but forgot and then there's the whole edit time limit...
    Anywho, the last Power Roulette that came up was an electric shot version. Siouxsan contacted the guy and made the deal. Then I contacted the guy and he accepted my offer over Siouxsan's. I didn't know about the prior deal nor did the seller inform me. He just went for the highest offer. So Sioux told me what happened and I offered to change the shipping addy to his place if it hadn't shipped yet or I'd ship it back out to him if it was already on it's way to me, since the machine rightfully belonged to him. Sioux very politely declined (ever the diplomatic chap). Soooo fast forward to now- I came across 6 machines for 150 bucks and one of them was a P Roulette so I emailed him with the link.. I must say it worked out for the better for him since that machine is in better shape than the two I have. His colors are more vibrant, especially the roulette decal and it looks from his pics almost no wear. I'll be replacing the decals on mine but his look as new for the most part.

    Not much of a story. Replied to a posting. Someone was selling a nice collection of 6 machines in a faraway land for $150. A pachitalker was kind enough to clue me in so I contacted them and made a "deal" for the one I was interested in. All of which makes me say:
    "Yippeeeee!"

    I was wondering about that-- I thought I'd seen a manual one before but my memory, well... wait... I forgot what I was saying.

    Thanks for the lead. I probably paid too much for it, but it's a beauty. I now have to hope he: A) sends it (one never knows) and B) it gets here alive.

    I was going to buy 2 but decided I didn't want to deal with the shipping costs, so only bought one. He was fascinated that someone would pay what I did for just one of them and said (I paraphrase heavily), "Hey, do you know any other nuts like you? Maybe I should just sell them singly."
    "Oh boy, do I."
    So, you'll be seeing them up for sale individually. I suggested that he doesn't get out of hand-- "I'd ask $30 to $50 each."

    But what a way to go.
    He mentioned that he knows you.
    The only thing I can't figure out is why he was willing to let go of 6 nice machines for $150.
