    Default Vintage Pachinko Machine - Works Great - $50 (Encinitas)

    looks like a nice machine. One just like it recently sold on ebay. Also don't be fooled by the discription because I'm pretty sure it isn't a nishijin.

    here is the ebay ad. ► http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140579768215&ssPageName=STRK:MEW AX:IT

    I just realized that it might be a nishijin in the CL ad and they just found that picture to post. Because why buy it for $56.01 and sell it for less.

    Hmmm... I wonder if it is a valid ad with a recycled photo, or a scam of some sort. Then again, who would use something as non-mainstream as a Pachinko machine as bait for a scam?

    Well I'm thinking it may not be a scam. It might actually be for a nishijin but it is the wrong picture. Plus why would it be a scam if you have to go pick it up in person so obviously they are trying to sell a machine (or something of some sort). But kinda odd using the same picture and the discription is almost the same too. Stuff aint adding up.

    Maybe eBay buyer backed out. So seller is listing it elsewhere

    clam the ebay seller is based in Wisconsin and this ad was posted in southern California. I don't think the buyer backed out. plus the CL ad says "Available for cash pickup in San Diego Area only "
