    Default Pachinko adiction

    Is there an anonymous group I can go to?

    I got my first pachinko machine sometime in the late 70s early 80s, I was so fascinated by it I ended up breaking it I think.

    I have always wanted one again, and now with ebay and a decent financial situation I have lost my mind.

    I first bought Star Wars about a month ago.
    Then got Magic Lamp and Rescue Dog (I love that one)
    I am waiting for Sakura to arrive today.
    Yellow cab is shipping today and arrives in 2 days.

    now im watching prices on Top Gun (since I heard good things here) Indiana Jones, and Freddy vs Jason.

    HELP!!!!!
    I do have to say, I miss the old shooting bar, rather then holding a knob, there was more skill to it.

    The only way to tell if you are addicted is to get a Rocky pachinko while you are watching the prices on the others. And by the way, if you are hooked you will never have all the machines you want, since great ones are coming out every year. Julie Pinball is a must have, once it is available for a decent price in the USA and Europe (England, Greece, etc.)

    His kitchen is just a staging area, until a more suitable location is found. I 'staged' in my living room all machines up until last night.

    you havn't seen the bathroom yet have you?

    Nice, nice, very nice machines.
    Enjoy the addiction. Resistance is futile. Besides, resistance ain't as much fun.

    I am a Pachinko Addict myself!

    I have bought 4 since the beginning of July!

    And I'm still being tempted.....

    But nevermind, some Addictions are harmless and never need a cure...

    Heres to the next six....

    ENJOY!!!
