    Talking Odd Ad!?

    I'm not sure about this write up or where they are getting their info..But at least its half off!!

    MJ53 Pachinko Machine Boxed Yankee Cannon with 50 balls | eBay

    Mei Ji period 53 Pachinko Pinball Machine Yankee Cannon,

    look at the pciture with the center shot, certified, some say this was post WW2 way for the locals to vent out, or something entirely different,

    and this was part of an auction on a special consignment to the US in 1978, still has the box of that auction.



    Theres is no damage or somke inhalation, the servo is not avaliable because its 50 hrz we're 60 hrz, the wood maybe old but the corners are sharp unlike other auction I have seen, may have grooves which is consistent with the age, and this machine auctioned for over $800, the expert that I purchases the balls from which are various pachinko joints deemed the price as such from a japanese perspective, us is totally different market altogether.

    and its brought to you at 50% off, provided you win without opposition.



    Any Q&A for purchases only please ask, and I will do my best to answer it.



    other rivals or junkguys, do me a favor keep your opions to yourself, i have better things to do, and none of you are certified japanese experts.





    To clear up any confusion, I put now the possible mei ji period expiration stamp, I have confilicting views on the suject, not everything was certified on a year to year basis, and neither is the common misconception of these machines being produced on a year to year basis, so based on the antiquities auction, this is what the price was and the auction is priced far lower.

    but where does the soup fit in to the spinner where the machine is left out of the summer wind song violet

    Definitely not written by Yoda! Sounds like the ad was written in another language and the seller used Babelfish to translate it.

    Cool machine in great condition, but not worth $400 plus shipping.

    Certified japanese experts? He is basically saying that you are certified as japanese. Therefore anyone who was born in Japan can email him and say yes I'm certified as japanese and I'm an expert (just say I'm an expert just don't say at what).


    He really just needs to do some basic research (or look at prices of other machines on ebay)

    At that price he will be relisting it for probably the next 5 years (actually it will probably be longer. )

    He really should just give up or do some research.

    It will never sell at his price. This thread may be going on for several YEARS at the rate he is reducing prices.
