    Default Hello All

    Well, I've started posting so thought I'd better introduce myself after lurking for the last few weeks. I live up in Scotland on the West Coast and am looking to get my first few pachinko and pachislo machines soon, so joined here to find out about these great gaming machines.
    I remember seeing some of these machines and parlours in a few films and thought they loked great but never knew what they were called and thought nothing more of them until recently when I spotted some whilst hunting for an Arcade/Mame machine. So, I've got plenty of tokens and balls on their way to me being imported as they seem hard to find here and hopefully next week I'll be picking up some machines. Wish me luck as I've never played one before never mind had to fill them with balls/tokens and get to grips with the different resets and things.
    Cheers Nibsy

    Good luck hunting. I have to admit most of my machines and balls have come straight from Japan as the UK market is pretty weak, and only the older (pre 2008) machines

    Importing from Japan seems a bit daunting I looked at the links on here and still acn't make head or tail of it. With shipping as well it looks very expensive is it any cheaper to organise a small container/large pallet with orders for a number of people?
    I'm hopefully picking up a Tomb Raider and Sinbad Pachislo next week ,now just to find a few pachinko.
