Prices rising since they first went up with these, huh?

Must be they sold the first ones too quickly! :roll:

Just remember... no balls... no warranty... AS-IS. :!:

[azlew]

I do like that they state it will reach you in working order and they do spell out what is wrong with the machine(at least on the one I was looking at).... 8-)

Does anyone remeber what the dico queen was last time? I missed out last time, I'm not sure if the new price is worth it? I don't have any Pachinko's, so I'd have to shell out money for balls. :cry:

[slotter]

I'm going to put up a poll on warranty problems. I'm thinking if there is a problem with a machine it will be right away.

In other words, AS IS, should be all right because texasauction will take care of the machine if it isn't working when it arrives, but a month or more down the road you'd be on your own with the scratch and dent machines.

Chances are, if it works when you get it, it will continue to work for a long time with just home use.

The DQ went for BIN of $60 last time, I think...

[DaStooge]

yes 59.99 but I think they were in worse condition than the one listed now


I'd say its a good machine, but its my first and I have nothing else to compare it to.

I know I need atleast 2000 more balls to play it comfortably.

Darn - I have to stay off this site! There's going to be a war a my house soon for sure. Just checked Texas Auctions updated scratch & dent listing and found several to pick from. I had a hard choice deciding between the Royal Flush, Disco Queen and Gladiator. Ended up taking the Gladiator, Black case with red rim around play field.

Now how to figure out how to disguise the thing as some other piece of furniture.

By the way, how is the Gladiator as machines go?

:roll: I was eyeing up that discounted gladiator machine earlier today...when I asked the seller where the blemish on the back was, I was told "you should reread the post, I don't see anywhere a mention of a blemish on the back of the machine", to which I replied "look under the section marked 'MACHINE CONDITION - READ ME - MACHINE CONDITION!' followed by something about slight damage to the rear of the machine, but not affecting playability.....
I might be wrong in doing this, but I subtracted IQ points from the entire operation, simply because of that conversation...I'd rather deal with someone that inspires confidence, personally. :oops:

[rogerpjr]

I'm not sure where you read that. I went back and looked at the listing and still didn't see anything about the back for the Gladiator, but it was mentioned for several other machines. I think that the lack of blemishes was made the deciding factor for me, aside from the great looks of the machine.

[TatooedLady]

supposedly it was just an old listing that they forgot to update the info on...same machine? I dunno. But she assured me that she had corrected the information, in the followup email.
