Wow...That's right you read that right $75!!!! Anchor Auctions in Reno auctioned off about a dozen Game Makers yesterday (and about another 80 or so machines).  They went CHEAP...Still pinching myself...

Can the scrolling 'welcome' be changed?  Mine says something like, "Thanks for playing at Dini's..." (I think that means "Baldinis" a casino in Sparks).  I'd like to customize it for my house?!?

For you skeptics, Anchor Auctions won't change their website until Thursday 4/23...Scroll down past all the dolls and stuff:  http://anchorauctions.com/auctions.htm

Everything works, so no other questions for now.  Thanks in advance for any help you may have!

We hate you .... we hate you ...we hate you... said in the finest Jan Brady voice. You lucky B@st@rd.  frying pan

That scrolling message can't be changed (not until it gets to my basement anyways).

...just  so you don't feel cheated I will offer you $100.00 - thats 25% raw profit..... over 3000% annualized and will take that obvious lemon off your hands.   rotflmao

Just in case you don't believe me there is a gamemaker.pdf manual in the submit a newfile area. You lucky B@st@rd.

It didn't come with a key...Can is simply 'touch' the wires together?

Full disclosure...I did have to pay a $25 fee to the State of Nevada to fill out some bs form...Never had to do that before.  The representative said they were 'cracking down'...

Thank you....Thank you...Thank you...

I love the Internets!  I rely on sites just like this for info...Bad Weather Bikers for my Buell Ulysses, Thumper Talk for my XR600R, Cartaholics for my golf cart (Burning Man art car), and now New Life Games for my slots!  Stoked to see this site supports arcade games as well.

Lastly, I'm sure that a lot of these Game Makers will start appearing in Reno's craigslist.  They'll want a profit, but the machines might go for a relative bargain...

Yes, welcome and great news on the find! To change the scrolling, once you turn the rest key, it will be under configuratiion/attract mode. Good luck and if you have any other questions, ask away!

 bawling bawling bawling bawling bawling bawling   Okay, so I'm crying on the wrong forum! lol.
But I found a Sharkey's table with the bone pink $500 Harvey's chips in it that sold in a previous auction.  bawling bawling bawling

According to The Official U.S. Casino Chip Price Guide, the pink $500's are an R10 (rarest possible) outside of a Sharkey's table, and the blue baccarat $1000 chips are unique to Sharkey's tables. (No known examples outside of a table)

The bone-pink $500 Harvey's brass core chip was the very first $500 chip that I ever won (playing BJ of course), and I always wanted one in my collection. I hope that that table went for a lot of money -- or some fool got a "nice souvenir" table without knowing what he bought. hissy fit




btw, the black chips are $25 and the white are $100, both from Baccarat. However, at the blackjack tables where I won the pink, Harvey's had orange chips for $25 and dark midnight blue chips for their $100s -- they had an odd but pretty color scheme. $5's were turquoise, $2.50 were forest green, $2 were brown, and $1 were a sort of bright mustard yellow.

Well, that makes me feel better. I've wanted a Harvey's/Sharkey's table for a long time -- this is the first time I've ever seen one. sigh I couldn't have afforded it anyway. frying pan  Thanks Ron. Hail


Jay, there's no game in the table; it was a table at Sharkey's restaurant in Gardnerville, NV. Sharkey bought up large volumes of obsolete (and rare) high-denomination casino chips from the Tahoe area (and perhaps some from Reno/Sparks?) and had the chips embedded into custom tables that he had made for his restaurant.

Collecting obsolete casino chips -- another expensive hobby -- and I have way too many of them (hobbies, not chips Tongue Out) ...

<ADD> Of course, chips are worth more when they're not embedded in a table, but these tables are well known.
