    Default WTB: a few Pachinkos for the fam

    Looking for two or three pachinkos for my kids. I would prefer machines that are themed appropriately for pre-teens...I am located in Tampa.

    Thanks!

    I see pachinkos for sale, on Craigslist, down in the Tampa area all the time. Not sure what's available down there right now, but that's where I'd start.
    Gotta catch 'em all Pa-chink-o

    I watch CL all the time...there are a couple on there, and they don't seem to be complete. When the seller starts with "I don't know much about these, but...", I am leery right away...

    Actually, "I don't know much about these" is a good sign. Usually you can use that to negotiate the seller down in price. If you see a machine that interests you, post as many pictures as you can get from the seller here. There are a lot of members here that can tell you about the machine just from the pictures. Good luck with your search.

    I have a Taco Yaki hanemono machine that I am finishing up to sell but I doubt you would want to deal with the shipping.

    Yes, that's the problem...with shipping, it's like buying it twice...

    Are you looking for vintage with a manual shooter or modern with LCD screens and animatronics. The past 10 years or there have been quite a few family friendly themes based on anime and movies. Jpop and television series.

    I am flexible, but would prefer modern. I think my kids would enjoy it more.
