Title: I was offered this machine today
Post by: RobinAK on March 10, 2021, 07:29:47 PM
Hi so I was offered this machine today. I have yet to see it. I have the photos she took for me. Told it has a coin jam error. But it works other than that so she says lol.  In the pic I see the mech/comp is missing. She has it. The machine also has about 500 tokens to go with it. So I have never seen a Sigma. Is it worth my time? Will I be able to get parts? Anything i should look out for? Any and all input appreciated.

Thank You
Robert

Okay so the seller thinks its worth is weight in gold. Passing on the Sigma. Seems like that's probably a good idea as no one has any input lol.

I have a SG-50b, and it does seem to be a well built machine.  The only major thing that needed to be replaced was the power supply and found one with 5v, 12v, and 24v for $40, it doesn't need to be the original brand.  The only draw back is it's very hard to find Sigma parts.  For example one of the steppers on the reel is loud and I can't find the same stepper motor.

I would stay away from sigma machines.  Like the previous poster said, parts are really hard to come by.

How much are you paying? I have an SG-50 got it fixed for free.  They are great machines, for under $100
give it a shot. If they want $300, pass.

Yeah she is asking way too much! Her initial asking price was 750  :24: :rotfl: :24: . She went down to 500 . I told her I felt a reasonable offer was 350 max. I only said that because it also has 447 dollar tokens to go with it. I told her I felt the tokens were worth 200-250 (based on e bay 300.00 for 500) and the machine was 100-150 so my offer was 350. She stopped replying to my messages  :24: . I could use the tokens but the machine is a gamble. Though I do want it just because I never had one and I got a hunch I can make it work lol.

$200 is tops.  I got a Sigma 50 for $50 and a UV-1700 Sigma for $80.  Those were crazy deals but sigmas are pains in the ass. But they are great machines when they work.
