    Default Spin Luck price?

    Hi All,
    I have someone locally that is selling a Spin Luck machine, but he's asking $900. From what I can see around the forum, that seems pretty high. It looks like a fair price would be in the $400-$600 range depending on condition. is this correct or am I off?

    Thanks

    I'm sure others will chime in their response to your question, however in my own personal experience, a machine is worth whatever a buyer is willing to pay for it. You may consider it overpriced at $600, but to someone else who has been searching for that exact machine for years and has a personal/emotional connection to it, it may be a bargain for them at $900. Spin Luck's are a very desirable machine and don't come up for sale very often, so you really have to decide how much YOU would be willing to pay for it before you decide to walk away.

    I have done this many times in the past with machines I really wanted, and I have no regrets with the few I walked away from because they were priced over my threshold.

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

    I've seen a picture and a video. I'm sure it's the real thing. Do people actually fabricate fake Spin Luck machines?

    great advice...

    for me, even 600 is over priced.. I forget what i sold mine for but i was verry happy... and the buyer was verry happy as well..

    I got my Spin Luck by chance and a friend that lived nearby the seller so it only cost me a six pack for freight

    As far a s price, the going rate at the time was about $600, and I got a far better deal than that. It's a very cool game, but $900 is way too high for any pachislo. If I had $900 to throw on a game I would get a pinball machine. Or lots of pachinkos and pachislos.
    Pachinko -Nishijin "C" Fishing Game & Hockey, Red Lions, CR Red Lions, Heiwa Double Wing, Takao Bruce Lee, SanseiR&D 777 Sevens Rock, Sankyo Wanted!, lots of other vintages!; Pachislo -SPIN LUCK, Kung Fu Lady, Gamera High Grade, Gundam

    I think $300-500 is a good price range for Spin Luck.
    For $900, you could get a IGT Game King with 40-50 different games of video poker, video slots, keno and blackjack
    Pachislo - Super Bingo-King Camel-Mephisto-Neo Pharaoh Zetz-Nangokusodachi-Mu Mu World DX-Super BlackJack-Death Valley-Gin Gin Maru-Power Jump
    Pachinko - Fever the King-Monster Village-Top Gun-Thunderzone-Casino Fever-Super Sea Story
