    Default Spin Luck for $40

    I found an ad on Craigs List yesterday. It turned out to be a Spin Luck with an asking price of $40. Once I got the seller on the phone, I immediately left work and drove 6 hours round trip. I didn't try to talk him down on the machine but did convince him to throw in about 300 tokens.

    Here are the pics:

    So far it appears MD has been very lucky for me. Spin Luck for $40, Arrangeball for $50. The Spin Luck seller had two other pachislos that were more modern. One was Gamera, the other I am not sure but both had video screens. I tried to talk him out of those to make the drive more productive. He wanted $350 a piece for those machines (but only $40 for the Spin Luck!!!)

    Well that is a great deal. Any problems with the machine? Now all you need is about 1500 more tokens.

    WOW! What a find! I always love to hear about someone getting a great deal. I once drove 8 1/2 hours 1 way for a Ginza pachinko for $75. Ebay Auction: Single Shot on ebay But NIT has us both beat! From Jacksonville to just inside the boarder of Maine is 21 hours!

    I tested the machine last night. Everything seems to work great. I do not have an exterior key for the machine although it does have the reset key. Going to try changing out the lock soon. I do have plenty of tokens so that isn't an issue.

    If you have the luck (sorry!) to find a SPIN LUCK for that kind of give-away price you need to get your cash on the lottery now!
    If it was me, I would have travelled all that way and bought an empty case!

    I just need one of those now... at the same bargain price... You have to wish!

    Enjoy the Pachi!

    Best deal ever on a Spin Luck! It will quickly become your favorite, especially if you have any of those pesky pachinko machines. Be prepared to be spoiled. lol

    Although Spin Luck is a really popular model in the US, for some reason it seems it has never been that popular over here.

    I'm pretty sure the last few that were listed on ebay in the UK didn't sell??




    look here's one that ended recently with no bids, but that could be due to the seller basing the asking price on the US market??

    Spin Luck (pachislo) Including tokens. | eBay

    Could be worth making the seller an offer??

    250 euro looks like a deal to me but make him an offer already! But be warned! As you know, I prefer an average pachislo over the best of the best pachinko and with the top notch game play of Spin Luck it's game over for all your Pastinkos.
