Looks like some new pachinkos.

Bonus Fun:
Win one and see how many weeks it takes to get it.

Some nice accessories, but I think I'll pass.

Actually, those look like some cool machines at very reasonable prices.
I need to check the museum for the specifics. The info is a bit sketchy.
Nobody makes a machine look quite as good as TA & the gang.
Does SlotUSA gives 'em feet?

[Tony Junior]

I dunno about feet Doo, but they have balls!

Pachinko, that is!

[logicprobe]

The feet they provide aren't worth much. Scrap furring strips? Tiny little things that I never bother to use.
They do give 500 balls, though. Kind of makes up for it.

Looking closely at the pics of that old Bikini Adult machine (yeah, right...) but, don't forget "This is the most requested title and best selling pachinko machine" it is very dirty and cig burned at the bottom. Same for that "Construction" machine -- looks burned in several spots. Quit looking after that.

Hey Don,

I know you are about as old as I, so I am wondering what you have done to improve your eyesight. I looked at those two machines you mentioned, and they looked fine to me. If you say they are dirty and burned, I think I would rather trust your judgement than my eyesight - it just makes me shake my head that I am not able to be as discerning in viewing these pics as you. I think I will ask you to screen pictures of any future purchases I may intend to make.

Best wishes,
Dave Wile

I've been through the problems with beat up machines arriving, Dave. The vendor then told me the pics that had been in his auction were of the actual machine. Yep, when I looked very closely, they DID show the marks I was upset about but they were sure hard to see. Those marks didn't look as bad as the marks on this machine.

Look closely at the areas highlighted in this compressed picture on the big pic in the auction. There are scuffs or burn marks at the arrows and the area circled, is very dingy looking.

Hey, maybe it's just lighting, but if you're interested in this machine, I'd fire off an email questioning the vendor about it.

Arby, that could be it. I do have a 21" LCD monitor with DVI so that might be the reason they show up well? I figure my eyesight ain't all that hot either.

Hey Don,

You know I never doubted you - I just envied you. John of Logicprobe also has some keen eyesight which I learned first hand when I bought two really nice machines from him. He showed me a flaw on the one machine that I could see after he pointed it out. But he also was trying to show me something on the other machine that I was simply unable to see. He is picky. If John tells you it is nice looking, it is probably great looking.

Best wishes,
Dave Wile
