    Default Mahjong / Jankyu

    This was available some time ago. Can't seem to find the original post.

    Wish I had the $100.

    I agree. I tried to contact the seller back then and received no response.

    Ya that guy hanked my chain! From the time the add said it was posted I had an email to him within fifteen minuets. I was right in his area doing a job. It took in two days to get back to me and said someone was already coming to pick it up. So if you millermaster1 emailed him before me he is full of it!

    He was going thru a divorse and didn't seem very interested in selling the game. I actually sent him, his returned email from October and that's why he actually called me because he said he would back then.

    I tried everything I could to get him to sell it to me the first time he listed it. I nearly had him convinced to sell it to me, but then he said he sold it locally and took it off the market. Then I saw it come back on months later and was working on buying it again, but he stopped emailing me. I have been searching for it ever since. I'm glad a member got it.

    That is a very cool Pachi, looks very complicated but fun. I'm sure knowing how to play Mahjong would be a big plus as well.

    check out the pic below. it has a t-shaped crank handle that goes in the same spot as yours. maybe the crank hung from the machine or the attendant had it.

    Yes, i found that photo also and thats what i thought! Now, thats really trusting your employees. You get to give the payouts and decide if the person has a winning hand. Maybe thats why there arent to many of these machines out there
