    I'm sure glad I don't use their supplier! They are getting ripped off from Japan!

    487 machines x $194 = $94478
    487 machines x $97 = $47239

    So theyre going to take a $47,239 loss on this shipment? According to their site.

    "We will sell them just as they come out of the container for $97 per machine"

    So does this mean no transformer on most of them, so theyre also losing $9740 on their service manuals.

    Also $99 shipping? A little high eh?

    I think I saw these guys advertise on a Time Warner cable channel out of Syracuse NY. Commercial was your typical pitchman interviewing people dressed up as if they were at a party plating these pachislo machines. Host would go around and ask "if this machine was $2,000 would you consider it a good deal? Of course they say Yes! Later he talks to another person and reduces the price. This goes on for 1/2 hour. In the end, I thought they were selling for $297 per machine. I am sure some people will fall for this. I personally am fortunate to live near Rochester, NY so I can buy my machines locally.

    So are they 'carefully checking each machine' or are they selling them 'just as they come off the container'? The latter statement sounds as if these are being sold 'as is'.

    I also loved the statement about the *secret* manual valued at $19.95. How do you figure a twenty dollar value for 6 pages off of a photo copier. Must be platinum staples!

    This is classic!

    Look at the upside. Finally there's truth (somewhat) in advertising. Joe is at least admitting they are going to send you a machine that has not been tested nor has it be cleaned.
    Meanwhile, somewhere in Oklahoma.

    So in other words, it's business as usual, but now he is admitting that you are gonna get a half clean machine.

    This is my personal opinion, or of the voices in my head, and are not meant to reflect the opinion of this board.

    Now I know why newbees want to convert their machines to quarters, 100 tokens at $50.00, that works out to 50 cents per token. Thank god for pachi talk.
