Yeah - Just for kicks I Googled slot machine and slot sales - and NLG didn't come up.  I forgot how I came across it.

But I'm sure glad I did!   

[a69mopar]

probably something to do with error code or troubleshooting.  But no matter how, you know it now.

Thanks,

I think that we dropped quite a bit in Google standings when the old site died. Joey would have to confirm this.

[uniman]

Yeah, but I remember when I started out, $550-650 for an S+ 3-4 years ago was a deal. Drove all the way north of Detroit to buy 3 S+ machines from KFBob (Nice guy). I didn't even hook up with NLG until after I got my first 2 Gamemakers. Members who get on here first before buying are definitely ahead of the curve on slot purchasing because of this forum. Someone that just cruises Ebay and Craigslist probably doesn't know any better.

I have talked to several Universal owners who said they paid $1000 or more for their machines that were purchased 10 years ago! Stepper slot machines must have been far and few between I guess.
I really think eBay and the internet saturated the market. Not to mention the amount of S+'s that left the casinos.

I'm glad that guy has had this machine for the plast 3 years with no problems 

[blueridgeslots]

It was known as TITO that made the drop in prices happen mostly, all older platforms " have left the building" and also many newer themed games and platforms

I guess no ceiling plaster fell on top of the machine? 

[m79crew]

I have been wondering when this would show up for sale some time some place some how, I traded all this glass to them about 3 years ago.

This isn't a bad deal for a PE+ slant top:

What does every one think of the pricing?

Well, the Top Gear and Trick or Treat are Mk 2.5 machines and that IGT I think is a PE but with the slot software, am I right about that? I've seen those MK2.5's go for $400-600 each. I don't have a clue about the IGT since I can't confirm the model.

 Dan (tacman)

I think Kenokarz could give you a more accurate value, he likes Aristocrats! 

[knagl]

The RWB slot is a PE or PE+ video slot -- it doesn't look like it has the embedded bill validator.  That PE+ that I posted about the other day for $200 could run that software, plus would have all the buttons for poker.

I'd say that $2K is a little high for that group.  $750 for a single machine is way too high.

[kenokarz]

yes 2.5 aristocrats, should go for no more than 300.00 -350.00 , you can change games and they are all eprom base, you can tell if its a 2.5
when you open the machine it will have 2 boards, they could be mark 4 that will have a single board in tray, they also are eprom base games
you need to check the b/v on those because if there gpt heads they can be updated but $$ to do,  they are flash base on the heads,
both of those game have bonus screens, if you really want them i would offer the guy 350.00 each on the lot he might take it

Did you see the last line of the ad?

I will not waste my time with people trying to lowball my prices.

I'm guessing it may not work for this guy. 

[stayouttadabunker]

I never let a line like that deter me....I figure what do I have to lose?....an email?

I agree with Stout. The worst that he could do would be to ignore or flame you. If the seller is truly in the dark as to the value of his slots and doesn't respond, then you've lost nothing. On the other hand, if he snubs your offer, he will either end up not selling them or will have to wait for the right sucker to come along in this bad economy.

[tacman]

Not only that but keep the communications pleasant. Even though he MAY turn you down, if he gets no takers he may respond back for your offer. Depending on what he paid versus his monetary need to sell, who knows?

[stayouttadabunker]

Exactly, politeness can go a long way 

[ricker]

Must not be many of these left.

Pictures of that posting -- that's neat, I've never seen a machine like that.

I ran across this today too and was quite curious about it.  It's about an hours drive for me to get there but I just don't have the time or room for it.  I have never seen anything like this before.

[tacman]

I think if you ever had a probem with the slew of lights in that upper box you probably would wish that you had never seen it at all!!

Here's an interesting one from Craigslist:

 sale-affhe-1121259204@craigslist.org

Mystic Ball Video Slot Machine with stand.  Says it is an older machine.  Who made this ?  Quick google search and saw this might be by Franco Gaming ?  Never heard of them....
