    Default Pachinko brochures

    On a recent trip to Japan I stopped in to check out one of the many parlors in Nagoya and discovered these brochures. They seem to give the reader the in and outs of the game. I only have these 5. I have no idea what they say as they are nearly 100% in Japanese. some are in book form and others are fold outs. All are in near mint condition. 2 from Sankyo, 2 Sammy and 1 Bisty.

    I would like to trade these for Pachinko balls or any other Pachinko related item you might be willing to trade. I'm easy, just ask my wife!

    I'm being told that I may be returning to Nagoya between now and the end of March. When I do I will be sure to pick up more of these. Having been there 4 times over the last 14 months I've discovered that the only thing they are willing to give or sell at the parlors are balls, brochures and ringing ears! I've tried to buy trays, posters, banners and seat covers without success. I need to find a used Pachinko shop there and see what I can come up with!

    You might want to look up this company:

    Ohira Shokai Co, Ltd

    Nagoya Office

    Catalog

    As far as I know, they have it all, or can get it.

    They do have a Nagoya branch, I think

    Don't know, might just be an office and not a retail location. But I'm sure they can still get stuff delivered

    Their number's listed, have to give them a call

    I've never been but would love to. I've gotten things from them through a proxy. You need to get the trays with the cig pack/drink holder built in, those look pretty cool!

    I don't see any prices! I'm assuming the 4000 on the first tray listed is the amount of balls it will hold.

    They used to have a price page, but stopped that a long time ago, maybe only accessable to the 'trade'. Looks like that specific one holds between 1550 and 1800 (based on the pad thickness in the bottom)

    I remember seeing a parlor attendant walking around asking the players if they wanted a drink. If they said yes she would count out the number of balls required to pay for the drink. She had a special tray that she could count the balls with. Where can I get one of those? I don't see one in the catalog.

    Hey Chris, Do you still have the Sankyo booklets?

    I have a few golden sphere's I can trade you for them

    I have both of those machines, and would like the booklets to go along with.
