    Default What's the legal status in NJ?

    Hey all,

    I've just discovered Pachislo and these great forums, and was actually getting ready to buy a machine, when I came across the thread from earlier this year about their legality in NJ.

    Now I'm not too surprised since just about everything is illegal in this state, but has anything more come of this? I see dealers are still shipping here; but I hate tp buy something that I'm afraid to show people, or have to constantly worry about becoming fully illegal.

    Thanks!

    Jason

    Understand we can't give legal advice as we aren't lawyers. With that said, if the major vendors are still shipping to NJ then I would consider it safe enough for a home use slot machine. Don't convert it to quarter use, leave it at tokens and I would bet in the grand scheme of things, no one is going to care if you have one in your home.

    Thanks for the reply! Obviously I wasn't expecting legal advice, but was just wondering what the opinions of the collectors here were. I definetly have no plans to convert them to take coins or do any real gambling on them.

    I guess there isn't really much to worry about for in home use. In fact I won a Neo Magic Pulsar from Stealth on E-bay last night, and I just got the confirmation that it'll be shipped today!

    I understand you weren't asking for legal advice but we have to cover our collective butts as this is an open forum.

    Is that a rhetorical question Luckydog?
