    Default 28 Arepachi Machines for sale AKA Arrangeballs!

    I received 28 arepachi machines as part of a lot of pachinko machines I purchased from Vintage Pachinko. I really have no interest in them and prefer working on vintage pachinko machines. There has been a lot of interest in them from other pachitalk members, so instead of letting them sit in the shed for the next year or two I have decided to sell them as a lot: as is, where is. I have not tested any of them or even plugged any of them in. However, I did find Bill's notes on them. It shouldn’t be outside the skill level of anyone who understands basic electronics and can read a multi-meter to fix them. I just don't have the time or even want to mess with them. If I can't find a buyer for the lot, then I will sell them on ebay as a lot or one at a time. This may take a year before I start as I am backlogged on pachinko restores. Also, they are at the back of the shed with 75 pachinko machines in front of them. I really don’t have a price in mind, so just read Bill’s notes and look at the machines. Let me know what you think a fair price or trade would be for the lot.

    Man I would go for it if I were closer and had the room. I would also be interesed in maybe just one or two if you end up wanting to sell separates.

    100 machines and counting...

    I would not have a place to store that many and hate to think what the shipping would be. I would also be interested in buying one or two if you decide to sell that way.

    Bill tried to sell a few of them on CL and they were incomplete and cobbled together and they were sketchy looking at best. Have you gone through them to see if they work? There were a couple that seemed ok when these were on eBay.

    they're the same. we all wondered for a long time what happened to those machines as no one ever came forth to say that they had them. over time it became apparent though.

    I never knew Panasonic made arrangeballs. Number 22, the "National". That is a Matsu****a, right? Or am I just making a bad guess?

    I am going to put them on eBay one at a time as I get to them. I will check each one and list everything I find in as much detail as I can, I will not do any restoration on them, and they will be sold as is>>

    So glad I won the one I got! I didn't even see most that were on eBay. I wouldn't have been able to fix the ones with missing parts, and the ones that were nicer bid higher than I could afford. Overall I am very happy with mine!
