    2. A small lounge or sitting room affording limited privacy, as at an inn or tavern.
    3. A room equipped and furnished for a special function or business: a tanning parlor.........................

    Lew, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on the terminology, but I'll still wear the shirt you gave me proudly

    Well I am glad to see there are some people here that still think a Japanese Pachinko/Pachislo Parlor is a Casino

    I wonder what the true def for a parlor is in Japan? Maybe it is Casino but I really doubt it. Or maybe it is for sun tanning but I kinda think thats from an English dictionary...Maybe in Japan the term Casino means Pachinko/Pachislo Parlor:o

    Anyway, as long as there are people that want to believe that these are Casino Slot Machines ,there will always be new members for pachitalk.com that can learn what they really are.

    Jeff glad you are enjoying the shirt! You'll notice it doesn't say Casino or Slot Machine on it

    By the way : we will be wearing ours in Las Vegas this weekend....might be a bit confusing for a few people ?

    I wore mine in Las Vegas and kind of expected at least one person to ask about it, but nobody did.

    On a side note, I know you use the term "tokens" for the items that go in the pachislo's. They came up in our conversations at the warehouse. Shouldn't you be saying "medals"? I'll be watching you

    Yeah the first time we wore our shirts in Las Vegas they thought it said got pistachio? instead of pachislo

    On your side note I guess I have been brainwashed by dealer ads on Ebay about tokens. I just checked your ad and you state you include "250 tokens are included and you can purchase more from our ebay store " . But you are right they should be called medals but since we are talking about "Casino" Pachislos I guess the term tokens is easier to understand by the average new pachislo purchaser.

    I know Tulsa had an ebook about things to watch out for in Pachislo purchases on Ebay and if that book were to ever be made available again...I bet it would include some of the claims we have been talking about ?


    Anyway since you are a fellow Arizonian : I'll be watchin' you also


    PS: How about gettin' some of those round ball machines in ???
