    I have left a couple of messages and sent an email. They appear to be a construction company and have not returned any calls or emails. I will keep trying throughout the day.

    nice job-hope it works out and you'll have an instant collection. first time i've seen more than one arrangeball for sale from same owner on CL. the machine with the number circles and the one with the one with the orange-red color scheme and something below the number square look to be very interesting. i haven't seen those models before. the other one is a decent machine too but is a little more basic and i owned one at one time. it does however, have a curious structure where the coin insert is. it looks like it may be a token feed mechanism similar to the one on my kyoraku baseball machine. basically it allows the player to stack a column of tokens and by pressing a button will automatically drop a token into the machine but i don't see the associated button. based on my theory of taiyo arrangeball machine production, the green one is a 1st generation model and the other 2 are 2nd generation. i've got a 2nd gen and several 3rd gen machines and i've only seen 4th gens in pics. there's a little arrangeball geekery trivia for ya. i have no idea if i'm accurate, that's just what i've observed over the years.

    Thank you everyone for all the good wishes. The seller is slow with communication. Which is understandable as he runs a small construction company. I am trying very hard to work something out. However, as I have mentioned before, I am certainly not trying to run the price up on another member. As much as I would love to make this deal work. I would never come between another member and a machine they are trying to get.

    Very true, money talks. If this was a machine I had to have then I guess the gloves would be off and I would be willing to throw enough money at it to ensure that I get it. I have been very blessed to have the funds to support my various hobbies, however friendships and relationships are far more important to me.

    wow, then you must not want these too bad. every potential buyer is getting in the way of the other and (hopefully) understands that. that's just business. i can't say it any better that Jacks.

    I am also interested in the 3 machines. I live in Queens, NY and work out in Westbury Long Island. The seller said he received alot of interest on the machines. I know they are not going to be sold for the price listed on CL. I would of liked to at least get my hands on one but I dont think it is going to happen!!!

    my guess is that the seller has been very surprised by all the interest and is considering his options which is understandable. he was probably hoping to get something close to his asking price and now has an entirely different situation and is gonna go with the highest offer.

    hmmm yeah i hear what you're sayin but there's no alternative. in other words it's supply and demand and if more than one person is interested, then the seller will obviously go with the best offer. i put those ads on here so anyone interested can make an offer and yes i've done that just about every time i've been interested in a machine as well. i don't keep the ads for myself so to speak plus ole Jacks'll get them on here soon enough!! i also contacted the seller about one of the machines before posting this ad up. i haven't heard back but i mainly wanted some clear pics for my personal arrange ball album.
    the only way around having prices go up relies on several, just about impossible things happening together: everyone on here interested admits it, no one contacts the seller so he has no idea about potential interest and therefore raises his price, interested parties disclose what they are willing to pay here on the forum, a discussion (lengthy no doubt) to resolve who deserves the machines the most, everyone agrees to that, and then the lucky "winner" gets to pursue the machines with no competition at least from members here.
    lots of people want arrangeballs.
