Toxic Pachinko

[spooner]

WOW! What a sad thing to see. I think we should all chip in and lease an ocean freighter. Park it off of Japan for a year and tell all of the parlors that they can "dump" their machines there. In fact, we could get some trucks and drive around the country "collecting" their pachi "garbage".

I think a fully loaded ship would pay for itself with 3 million machines in a year.

Any ideas on how to make this possible will be respectfully entertained!

Well, if the Japanese need used automobile tires, we've got trading material.

The object is to make money both ways.

the U.S. vendors could offer to buy all the retired games for pennies a pound,
then sell more units to a broader market for less, but net bigger profits.
Buying 12 pachinkos @ $99 each sounds better to me then buying 4 or 5 for $180-$600.
I think every home in the country that has a game room and a pool table, might buy a pachinko for $99

During the depression, I believe one candidate promised "A chicken in every pot".

So you propose "A pachinko in every gameroom".

I can support that platform!!

Two or more would bring the family together, they would talk to each other.

That would be something new!

3,000,000 are destroyed annually....
Can that really be true :?:
boggles the mind....


It seems like those Japanese wholesalers are really overcharging for "industrial trash"
