Chris-socal:
Great story. That defining moment should be your profile “about me”.

I think his text tells it like it is Worth "25 to 50000.
I would by it for $25.....  :rotfl:

In all fairness - it cost him nothing to post the add... if someone calls him up via Craigs list (as one does) and lowballs  him $1500 ....  SOCAL is a highly restricted state so some people may do the deal as there are certainly not going to be a lot of slot shops in the neighborhood, and if someone goes on line (as they should) and finds one in Ohio for $300, Mr. Ohio is not going to ship illegally and risk a big fine, being shut down or both.

Jay do you mean where I am Southern California? We do have the 25 year and older law but nothing seems to be enforced on CL or Offer Up.  There's some "still too new" machines here and many are priced quite reasonably. I've bought S plus's and S 2000's for stupidly low prices! I got an S2000 for $100 from someone last time. He just wanted it gone. Right now they seem to be prices in the $400 to $1500 range and none are selling quickly. Some are EM's, others S plus/ S 2000. Someone out in the desert was selling AVP's for awhile but he's vanished! So maybe he got a visit? The only slot shop here is LA Slots and they're a bunch of A-holes in my opinion.  :24:
