Hi Everyone,

I stumbled across this site and maybe this isnt the place to start this thread but I thought it was and interesting idea and might be helpful to Pachi Part hunters.

The domain name was just registered in June, so it is a really new site. I can't tell who owns it, though. I wonder if it is owned by a member?

. . . it's an extension of the "PDB"

OK... I'll bite. What is the "PDB"??

PDB = Pachislo Information Database

Run by ChrisV, which is a website database that deals with Pachislo machines for the most part.

I was wary of posting the answer to that.
I know other forums will go as far as banning a member for giving information or direction to a so-called competitive board.

The way I look at it is:
Parts & information are hard to come by in this hobby.
It should be a crime to "not" share information that may help & encourage others.

[Sid]

we aren't competition, each site does its own thing for the Hobby..
we are both here to promote it and keep it going..

When i was contacted by the New York Times for the Pachislo article one of the first persons i contacted was Chris at PDB..

there is no bad blood between the 2 sites..

Mostly Pachislo parts.

Well when i first came on site I saw the person that was a member that was advertizing pachi parts and tried to get ahold of him as he had somethings I wanted. I could not get ahold of him and from my searching he was a great participant to the site. He was in Florida and I learnned that him and another member dropped off the site at about the same time. Looked into it a little further and they were next to an American army base and one of them had given notice he would be gone for awhile. I have since watched both of the members names and they have not used the site since about two days apart. I think they were deployed overseas. FYI
