How many "I told you so's" will I get ?

Okay, so I decided to branch out and try a few pachislos from off ebay. I was looking for cheap and guess I struck gold...The price was right and they were two of my favorite themes, Gamera and Speed Racer.

The Gamera High Vision I bought from Panchinko for $99 plus shipping. It arrived well packed, lights working except belly glass, filthy, greasy, stinky, and with a few long black hairs stuck in the door. The payout table sticker is there, but cigarette burns are rampant and it is peeled off on one corner. Not too much heartbreak, lends a little atmosphere I guess. On the bright side it seems to work out of the box and will certainly give me hours of amusement once properly cleaned and sanitized. I am considering sending back the hair, though. Oh, and the tokens were just flat out nasty, rusty and covered in what looks like machine oil and tar. I have seen very few good things about panchinko on here but thought I would give them a try against what seemed like better judgement.

The Mach Go Go Go I bought from shopda for $120 plus shipping. I am hoping it comes in better condition. I will update you on its arrival. I havent seen too much feedback on this seller here on pachitalk so hopefully no news is good news. The only real concern was that they list paypal as an accepted form of payment on the listing but wont accept it when you try to pay. Makes me wonder if they have had issues and paypal froze their account. There are neg feedbacks but when I bought they didnt seem to have any recent issues. Dont worry, I paid by credit card so I am protected. They were trying to get money order or check as payment but I stood my ground pointing out the logos in their listing for paypal, visa or mastercard.


Neither seller notified of ship date or responded to emails. I finally got contact info and called both for shipping and tracking info.
