Hello Everyone from Illinois

[freezerboy]

Hi, I'm brand new to this forum but I have had an interest for a few years now. I'm currently in the market for a Spin Luck and Popeye machines if anyone knows of any nice ones for sale.
I plan to hang around the forum regularly.
Thanks

Welcome! You will need to look high and low for a spin luck. I found mine purely by chance and had a friend that lived nearby. Good luck in your search.

I seen where a member on here from my home county in Illinois sold a Popeye recently. Wish I had noticed then. Would have been a close pickup.

WELCOME!!!

Which Popeye are you looking for?? I think there are pachislos from 2005 and 2010 and a modern and vintage pachinko..

Hello freezerboy and welcome to the group

[freezerboy]

Thanks.
I noticed many sellers do not ship these machines. I have seen quite a few that I am interested in but local pick up only. Chicago is about 2/12 hours away and with the state in high virus mode I been reluctant to go there. Probably give in eventually though. I'm limited on space for this new hobby so i need to choose them carefully. I usually upgrade to different different models of items I'm interested in so I hope shipping is not a big problem cuz I would get rid of my older ones that way. Most people would have to drive a long way to pick up a machine in my hick town.

I looked high and low, and today I scored the evasive spin luck!! I got it from a Chicago-land Facebook seller.

My machine has serial number 731. I haven't had much playing time yet but about half of the time the coin drops straight through to the tray without registering. The same coin will work when tried a second time. I'm a newbie but I'll Probably try cleaning up the coin path. I ordered a belly glass light bulb for it today. It had a service card inside from Jan 2006 with 5 year warranty. BTW, I had an extra part mixed in with the tokens so if anyone can identify it I would appreciate it.imageedit_2_3948371224.jpgimageedit_6_6961379436.jpgimageedit_4_2598673931.jpg

Well Duh, I figured out what the loose part was.............It's a guide on the coin path! Now 100% of the coins fed into it register until I have 50 credits built up.
I actually listed it on Ebay as I have purchased 5 other ones this week.

Wait, you listed the Spin Luck on eBay ?

Yes, If its still here in two weeks I may add shipping onto it for a couple hundred dollars.
