my first modern pachinko: 2015 Ranma 1/2

The 8000 yen price is good to me if I were looking to buy that cell. But add about 4000 yen for shipping within Japan and then the international shipping to you. For me the initial $72 could become $350 in the end. The seller also offers a frame for another 5000 yen but it is best to ask if it is all intact. Also add all the additional shipping costs as this might be another separate carton delivered. (I think this is who I bought my purple frame from which also had an auto controller system on it. That was a bit messed up but easily removed and all works as it should in the parlor.)

Also of all these cells listed, I do not know if any are frame specific. As in are there multiple frames that look the same but have slight differences within them which makes them fully work with specific cells.

Some older Sankyo history can be found here: https://www.sankyo-fever.jp/history/list.php?tag=1966 (unless you meant the non-modern style machines dating back even further?) Look at the left side bar listing ranges of years to look at. I use the Google Chrome browser with auto translate turned on to view such pages.

Most expensive cell shipping cost (I’ve ordered 6 or 7 now) was only about $150 for me (domestic shipping in Japan and international FedEx included) via FromJapan. My 2 cents. Cells for the Evol only weigh 20kg or so; about 1/3 the weight of a full machine and much smaller package obviously. Frank at Clover can also get cells; but no telling when the next order/shipment is.

Thanks for quoting your shipping costs. You'll ping the board on this next legendary "Frank at Clover" shipment happens, yeah?

Oops, my bad I had the pricing wrong in my head. I was thinking of when I bought my Eva8 and forgot that I had a frame added. (10,000 yen total) Both shipped to me in one box via FedEx Intl. Economy. First picture = both shipping charges plus a couple fees would be $282 at today's exchange rate. Add the above cell for $72 = my guesstimate of the $350.

Second picture = my AKB48 cell was around $152 shipped via DHL. I bought this one for 7800 yen with free shipping to From Japan. So only 700 yen of the plan fees was with the cell. Everything else goes with five 2' x 6' banners which I had printed and were added to the same delivery box.
