Sweet Poker Machine. Gives me hope that I still might be able to get my Bally Joker Poker working. Had to put it away for a while if you know what in mean...

I seem to keep learning about it as I go. Getting help from another member here on how to change the denom back to 25 cents. Other funny thing is that, when I first powered it up, I opened the hatch to the mpu and an alarm went off! I really know very little about this machine but, it just seems to be made quite well. And thankfully someone left that hatch unlocked! This machine took three keys originally I think. The side of the mpu area is yellow with old cigarette smoke that was sucked in...ick!
Why did you put yours away Amachanic?

Nice vintage machine! And great price!!!

I had gotten a Bally's Proslot 6000 last year, in trade for a cell phone, but it didn't work properly.  I found a guy on Craigslist who said that he knew how to fix them, but he never emailed me back at all, until last week.  I got an email from him saying that he has a Bally's Proslot 6000 4 reel machine that he wants gone now!  In my email to him last year, I inidicated to him that I'd like to build my own "casio" at home and have a couple of slots in it.  I asked him what condition the machine was in and  he said "Excellent & excellent working condition".  I'm going to pick it up tomorrow morning, for $50.  I think I got a decent deal on it. 

I'm not enthusiastic with the theme of it "Winning for Dummies", but figure that I can change that, ,maybe????  (I've seen posts on here about people changing the theme of their machines- not sure how I'd do it, but thats why I'm on this site- for guidance).

I'lll be anxious to plug it in tomorrow when I get home and see what it does- I figure for $50, its a great deal. 

As far as I know, most of the casinos now are using video slots, so these guys are becoming fewer and fewer. 

Attached a couple of pics that the seller provided to me. 

[crgadyk]

$50 for a working machine is a great deal. I think the winning for dummies theme is kind of cool but to each their own 

Great find... I wish I could find deals like that. My best deal was a $40 S+ that just needed a little love. I'd be more than happy to find a working slot for $50 

[knagl]

Yep, that's a good deal!  I also like the Winning for Dummies kit, but yes, you can put different kits in there.  It'll require new (to you) glass, reel strips, game EPROM chips, and a clear chip, but it can be done and it isn't terribly difficult to do.  We can help you every step of the way -- just start a post in the Bally 6000 reel category if/when you want to make a change.

[teeder27]

Didn't go get it today- the guy emailed me at 3am saying he got called into work- I emailed him back for a different time- we'll see what happens. 

[emelie]

Do you guys think this would be hard to fix? And how much do you think this is worth?  I don't see a name of the game anywhere on the machine.  i wonder why it takes brittish coins.

I'd pass on that one

[StatFreak]

It looks like that Winning for Dummies is a clone. I can't remember the name of the original game, but I'm sure one of the Bally guys will chime in.

If you like the payouts but not the colors/scheme of WfD, you should be able to just swap out the glass and strips for a set from the original game.

It is -- BONUS FRENZY -- it's the game that I have in my Bally 6000 right now.

Mills Slot Machine War Eagle Stored for 60 years - $3100 (Bothell)

Reply to: sale-gvu7a-2631867488@craigslist.org

This All original, 5 cent unrestored slot machine has an incredible fully verifiable history. It was confiscated in a raid by a Michigan State Trooper in the late 1940's. The officer was part of a Special Investigation Squad, The officer kept that machine for over sixty years. Upon his passing away, his grandson just recently found it in his grandfather's attic. The son did remove the original lock. Upon arrival of this slot, the coins we found in it range from 1940 to 1946 (Picture Attached) We will include the coins. The bottom of the cash box was lined with print from the Detroit Free Press dated March 1st, 1941, This Slot even has the original Load Jackpot money Tube label on it. I think the pictures speak for themselves, the Oak Cabinet is beautiful, the reel strips are original and look brand new, the machine plays like the day it came out of the factory.

Location: Bothell

Spendy but a Cool find!....Wish I had one in MY attic!

Here is an unusual machine. Flip-card blackjack. Not sure who made it?

Here's a couple of slots on Craigslist.  Are they worth a damn?

The Bmaxx, pachi, isn't worth the $300 in markets west of the Mississippi. Those machines go for less than $200 all day long out here. The S2000, same thing, might be right for your area, but I'd be thinking more around $500 would be a fair price from a private seller. You just don't know what issues you might be buying with it and it's not a particularly desireable title. If you want that title, post a WTB on the site here or talk to a vendor

A lot of it really is location. This is what you find here all day long.

Lol, good point Poppo Another good argument for shopping with the vendors here when you can though. They're all pretty damn decent with pricing and service

[uniman]

Here's an unusual Sigma slot. Don't remember seeing this before.
