    I found this pachinko game however I have no idea what the value of it could be. I am new to pachinko and cannot find any info on the one I have. I attached pictures, the only things I can read on it is "everest" and "San cell patent #441299". An help at all would be great
    Thank you

    First off to Pachitalk

    Second, can you please post some more pictures. One of the blue badge in the lower left on the playfield, one of the lower portion of the front, and one of the back.

    I want to say it looks like you have a nishijin or heiwa single shot but I'm not 100% sure on that. Also I don't want feel comfortable giving you a value without a picture of the back. As if one piece is missing it can kill the value as there are no spare parts.

    If you have any questions please feel free to ask And once again welcome to PT.

    Welcome to PachiTalk!

    I would love to see more pictures of your single shot. I am still searching for one to add to my collection.

    On my iPad right now so I am not able to look over the pictures as well as I would like to. From what I can see, it looks like it is pretty complete and in decent shape. Looks to need a good cleaning (they usually do). Hard to place a value on it but in my humble opinion, if it is working and complete, I would guess around $75. Do you have balls for the machine?

    Very nice and looks complete early Pachinko aka "The Perfect Example of the Chaos Theory In Motion " the value is what us the collectors / restorers are willing to part with the $$$

    Well it does appear to be complete. Also looks like it should function no problem. (Though I do see some balls right above the lower bell which shouldn't be there)

    I am stumped as to the builder of the machine. I have seen a similar one before but forgot what brand it was. I will do some digging tomorrow. But it is an earlier single shot machine probably 1955 or so.

    As for price it varys. It mainly depends on location, condition, and the market. Right now the market is up so machines are selling for a little more. Your location is key, as if there are many machines for sale in your area then it might not be worth much; but if there aren't many other machines it could raise the value. To be considerate I would say probably between $75-90 is a fair price.

    could the manufacturer / branding actually be 'everest' or 'everlest'

    From searching I can find a reference here, but it's not the same machine

    Evelest (Everest) Pachinko

    and also an internet search brings up a question asked over at Amazon back in July 2012 about a pachinko with 'San Cell' on it and the same patent number of 441299

    Unfortunately there were no replies to it

    That is a really cool looking machine you got. I am sure it will clean up nicely. Be sure to post pictures as you are working on it. I am really looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

    It looks very similar to this Ginza Nagoya.

    The backs have nearly identical layouts and the front cel looks the same except for the tray. Maybe an earlier version?

    Welcome to PachiTalk

    Is that writing on the plate that surrounds where you put the ball in?

    Nice looking machine. Enjoy.
