Hiro / CF Export selling on eBay again

[JohnD0406]

Looks like Hiro / CF Export are selling on eBay again, using the ID "stopexpress". There's the disclaimer, the photo with the same background Hiro has emailed me machine pics in the past, the location (West Covina, CA), and all items being sold are pachinko/pachislo.

(This message cross-posted in pachislo dealers, for those who don't read both sections of the forum.)

Yes, I am certain it is CFExport because I won 2 lots of 2000 Pachinko Balls from StopExpress and Hiro's name was on the receipt. A real good packing job was done on the shipment! A lot better than his competition on Ebay, I must say!

He's done some special order importing (ahem but I think he's trying to get rid of some of the warehouse stock first.

I'd buy a second machine at that price! I purchased one of Hiro's last two Vicky's a couple years ago now...

Is stopexpress the one that has decent starting bids and outrageous shipping costs?

[yoda]

I would beeee interested in the New Vader star wars pachinko if he bought some in a lot

Kagetsu-Densetsu Pachislo machine - eBay (item 270388697716 end time May-17-09 14:13:35 PDT)

$99 for this one.. I wouldn't call that outrageous. I doubt CF does enough business to get the cheap contracts with UPS. I do recall someone selling on eBay that had very high shipping though... don't remember who.

[BigBearSteve]

Hiro has gone to double boxing his machines, I think thats the reason for the higher shipping costs on his auctions.

He even charges me $20 for picking them up direct.

[FREKKEN TEKKEN]

Thought I would put my 2 cents in. In the listing it says "Machine only" I couldn't help but wonder exactly what that might mean? The seller emailed me and said the Kagetsu-densetsu was not being shipped with the transformer, Balls or front door key. But also said the missing key wouldn't be a problem cause it could be opened from the back. Ya, but not if its mounted on the wall? I guess I'm thinking the listing may be just a little questionable for anyone that wouldn't question what is included in the auction? What do you think?

Are they boxed whey you pick them up? When I go, the machines are loose.

It's a Pachislo. It doesn't use balls and there usually not mounted to walls.

It's a Palot, which is a pachislo that uses spheres.

See threads # 7 and 8 for videos.

Well you learn something new every day here on Pachitalk.

Is it Just me or does that sound a little angry? Going back to my original statement I would expect a seller to specifically state that there was no transformer or door key for a machine he was selling. Most buyers would be dissappointed.

It's just you, but yes you are right the seller should indeed state clearly what is for sale. If I bought it then I would be a little angry to find the thing not working due to a missing transformer.

I forgot to add. Thanks for my first groan.

The other thing about not listing what does NOT come with this machine is the fact that the Kagetsu Densetsu Palot has two keys just like a regular Pachislo. One for the door and one to reset the Odds.

The location of the Odds key is in a place that would be a Major tear down to replace the key switch if if you did not have that key. Also this machine does not hold it's memory too long and you would need that key to get it up and running again once the memory dumped.

I asked through the Auction if it comes with both keys or not. Will let you all know the answer.

Congrats on your first Groan Sir.
