Better than expected...
As some of you know, I purchased my very first Pachislo off of Ebay a few days ago. The seller wouldn't guarantee I would get it in time for Christmas, but amazingly I got it this afternoon. According to my UPS tracking info, it left Middleburg, OH and arrived in Norwood, MA in just under 24 hours. I paid for 3-day shipping and got it in just 2 days.
With the great help of several members here and using the picture the seller posted on Ebay, I was finally able to identify this one as a "custom" Pachislo machine. It was originally a "Juggler V" made by Kitac in 1999. Someone changed the upper and lower glass graphics to "Texas Hold-em".
But here's the good part. The machine I received was not the same one pictured on Ebay. Yes, it was a custom "Texas Hold-em", but it was originally a "Final Juggler" made by Kitac in 2006. It is in almost new condition inside and out. It even has a built-in (factory) volume knob inside which is adjustable from 0-10 in one step increments. We've only been using it for a few hours and it seems to be working perfectly.
I'm not sure why, but the two florescent light bulbs for the top and bottom glass were missing. I'm guessing that was an oversight on someones part, or maybe they are too fragile to ship installed.
I promised that I would post a video (on YouTube) once I had it up and running, but I want to pick up and install the florescent lights first.
Can someone tell me how I can post pictures in this post?

If new graphics were placed directly over the old, the bulbs may be missing so the original design does not show through when lit.
