Reluctantly chipping away

Post by **TikiTim** » Sat Aug 07, 2010 2:26 am

....I'm afraid I'll have to shed some pachislo if I am to get any newer titles.

(should any newer titles ever make it across the drink)

I don't have any photo's at the time of posting, as about 27 machines are covered & stored.
I'll move them around & post the photo's as I find them.
For now I'll list the pachi with a link to it's db info & include an asking price.
I can ship, & I have approximately 4-5 cartons & foam packing.
Buyer pays shipping.

It's taken me about 4 months to decide which machines to commit to sale.

I honestly don't want to sell of any, but space has become an issue & I can't get rid of the kids.

~Azteca Legend - $160
~Beast Sapp - $160
~Doronjo - $140
~Thunderbirds (blue) - $170
~Time Cross - $150
~Tomb Raider (red) - $150

sorry to hear that you HAVE to sell some pachi.
but at least its to make room for future machines.

good luck with the sale.

That's a nice selection of machines.
To bad we weren't closer. Could trade a few to change things up.

I would like to play the Thunderbird's it looks like fun.
I keep my boxes around as well. Good luck

Maybe you two could swap one each. You would only be out the shipping. This sounds too simple---what's the catch?

I have played the thunderbirds machine at 777.

is it just me or do the characters on the video screen look kinda creepy.

I guess "the catch" lies in the first sentance of my original post...

More specifically
~Rock You/Queen
~Biohazard
~Beatmania

Plus, I wouldn't gain any space from a trade.
I'm looking to get rid of about 6-8, maybe more titles,
And I'll replace those with maybe 3-4 "new" pachislo over the next year and a half.
Sorry Forest...

Nothin personal, I'm just setting my sights on those 3 atm.

...a bit

Even if we both sold 8-10 there would still be plenty left to trade

I to may shed a few leaves before fall. My vintage P'ko tree has become a bit top heavy as well.

That's a nice want list you have there.

TikiTim, with those teenage daughters, do you think you'd ever get much chance to play Beatmania?

Post by **TikiTim** » Tue Aug 10, 2010 8:38 pm

...as promised, I present photos of the items for sale.

Azteca $160

Time Cross $150

Beast Sapp $160

Thunderbirds $170

Tomb Raider $150

Doronjo $140

I may put my Terminator 2004 & Rio de Carnival on the chopping block.

If I get some time, I'll put a little compilation video together by the weekend.

If I can get my hands on the title I want in the next couple weeks...
I won't have to fight anyone to play Beatmania for quite some time.

This sale is also to hopefully replenish the TikiTim pachi-fund.

i would love the beast sap . . . . but i cant ship it

Post by **Forest** » Wed Aug 11, 2010 8:09 am

The Beast should go quick even with shipping!

Tomb Raider by Daido is sweet. Daido makes some really nice machines.
Even my earliest one Fever Queen (2001) has top to bottom lighting,great sound and smooth operation. One of the better manufactures in my opinion.

Here's a vid I threw together with clips of the pachi's I hope to sell.
Sorry there's no narrator...
I couldn't get Sarah McLaughlin on such short notice.

If you're interested in any, send me a pm & we can determine the shipping price.

Azteca Legend

Beast Sapp

Thunderbirds III

Time Cross

Doronjo

Tomb Raider
