    I'd love to have it. But unless it's a lot bigger than I think it is, almost $65 to ship seems excessive. And I don't really need another project.

    These machines payed out in coins, didn't they?

    That shipping price is normal considering from Cali to SW La. I wouldn't be surprised if its more than that once all the packing and dimensional weight are factored in.
    10 bids, 3 bidders and lots of time left. No doubt snipes are already set up. I would if I were bidding. Despite the rough cabinet, its a great looking machine and these are rare. I think it'll go for a fairly high price.

    That's an earlier model Allwin machine, and yes - it has seen better days. This particular one pays out in coins, where others pay out in prizes, chocolates, cigarettes, or whatever. What bothers me is there aren't any pictures of the inside. How do we know there is enough there to work with? I took a chance on one several years ago where there weren't any interior pictures, and when it arrived, the inside was completely stripped!! Fortunately I snipped it fairly cheap.

    Could be a great find, but be cautious of what is hidden.

    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

    He sent me pics and he's trying to update pics on the auction. The interior looks pretty complete to me but there are empty screw holes. Could be nothing or not. Don't take my word for it that its complete!! Having said that, if I were interested I'd go or it based on the interior pics.

    Seems he never got the additional pics up. That sucks for him as I think it would have gone higher. A couple of snipes drove it to 405 which isn't bad but then there's over 40 bucks in eBay fees...
