    Default New and don't know much of these

    Hi I'm new here and have a coin op one of these emmdog has one that looks like mine I think it's a taiyo electron? There are three flags at top a red white and blue and then there is 4 pockets with peacocks and a bingo type pattern of number lights the machine works and is in great condition. I guess I'm asking the value of it because I may sell it to some one that can take good care of it. I don't know or can't figure out how to use this page with my I pad lol. I tried to message emmdog but seemed to have failed at it . Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Tyler,
    I sent you a pm and am interesres in purchasing your machine should you decide to sell. You can email me at hunnerbs at gmail dot com
    If you go to the top of this forum there's a sticky that I wrote on arrangeballs and gives some good info.
    the machine you have was made in two versions- one with a bonus and one without.
    Lemme know if you have and Q's.

    Looks like a tad bit of water damage above the top nails but could be dirt and that's jut cosmetic anyway. Its in great shape and is the more desirable bonus version. Is it paying out correctly and does the bonus work?
    This machine was made in '76 and we call it "Flags" for lack of the actual name. I usually get all the text on my machines translated but never did for this one.

    I think it pays out right the bonus works too stays lit and when pressed it lights up a couple numbers. I think it's dirt I used a q tip and was going to clean it but changed my mind when it made it look dirty.id love to clean it up but have no clue how to its in great condition I think. If only seen the other typed of these and they are always in bad condition. That is until I found this page.

    Yeah, more often than not they're filthy from being stored for decades. really the best thing to do is to make sure all the pathways that the balls travel are clean, polish the brass nail heads, and clean the background. Do not use liquid cleaners of any type unless you spray onto a rag or qtip first. Never spray onto the background. The liquid will travel down the nail holes and cause irreversible and permanent marks on the play field. I would definitely do these things if you plan on keeping it. If you sell it then it won't make a difference in the price you get.
