Another CraigsList score!!

[Blue-Busa]

Hey guys...I was checking out craigslist.com for Pachinkos as I normally do and found a pretty good deal in Nashville! I got a "Lord of The Rings" in a real nice manufactured cabinet/stand and a Lupin III with the cyclic feature and a stand. I live in Louisville, but check this out...Nashville is about 2.5 hours south of Louisville. He was travelling through Louisville today and met me with them on the side of the highway. The price? Do you really want to know? $250.00!! I encourage you guys to check craigslist.com everyday! This is my third one from it...my first was a vintage Sanyo that was FREE!! I'll get those pics added to my album in a day or two.

[Blue-Busa]

btw...that was $250 for BOTH machines with about 1,000 balls!

Good Deal

I check craigslist every week, but I have yet to find anything worthy.

I saw a vintage pachi on craiglist for like 70 bucks, thought about it but i had no monies! but thats all i've seen, still i've never heard of craiglist till i came here! i found some nice things for sale on there in my area cool site

I bought my second machine locally on craigslist for $70 and it was in as good a shape as my first restored one that I had paid $500+ for. That gave me some perspective on pricing. Sometimes you pay a lot to get what you really want and sometimes you get a killer deal. It seems to even out over time.

I check Craigslist regularly but haven't come across any deals like that. Awesome scrore.

Heck, I've never even seen a pachinko or pachislo up for sale on my local craigslist, let alone a good deal.

I have bought three machines on eBay, with only minor issues. I have bought three machines on Craig's List. I find the best deals on Craig's list, but I do have to clean them up typically. I see quite a few vintage machines posted for sale in my area. I prefer modern machines over the vintage ones.

[luckydog]

everything i've seen on my local craig's list has been overpriced !!

75.00 and up for vintage pachinkos 200.00 and up for pachislos

One of my Craigslist scores was 3 vintage Pachinkos for $80

and recently my Revenge From Mars pinball $2300

A good point about C'sL is that most items are within driving distance so you can visually inspect and pick up without the extra and sometimes High cost of shipping.

recently my Revenge From Mars pinball $2300

Revenge From Mars, you mean the Pinball 2000? That is a rare find, not too many of those around. The people at bigguyspinball came up with an emulator of the original computer hardware, they call it nucore. It allows for a drop in replacement of the original hardware with off the shelf parts. It also adds many new features and improves the original game play.

Enjoy your new found treasure!

here's a Star Trek pinball for 4 grand!!

Haven't had much luck with Craigslist either. Occasional vintage stuff(often overpriced) but often nothing. I don't know if you all use it yet but "Crazedlist.com" lets you do a search of multiple craigslist databases at once (I've used it for searching for Vids/Pins). Its good for me since I often search LI, NYC, Jersey, CT, etc... Also, I have found that people, many who don't really know what they have, will list a machine as a slot or pinball machine. Scores like this are the reason that I keep looking.

Cheers, Bob

I did get a couple phone card venders (gonna make 'em into Pachi Card venders!) in Denver once thru C's List. Pretty cool shopping if your a travelin' man!
