Slot Machine Worth It? (1 Viewer)

[Trihonda]

This table top slot machine is being sold locally, and I’m talking to the seller. Any guesses on what it’s worth? The sales price sounds reasonable, and I think this might be a cool addition to the game room, or even a conversation piece. what do I have here? I know this isn’t super valuable, but hopefully worth the asking price.

Remember. I'm stupid!

I'm assuming its currently fully functional? Does it take quarters or tokens (or both)?

The "Insert coin or play free", kind of gives it away.

I was told it’s fully working.

In regards to value

If it’s like the one I had it’s basically a toy. I paid $10 for mine. I think it broke and I threw it away... or it’s in storage somewhere

Not necessarily, a lot of people modify them in order to make them compliant with the weird patchwork of laws in the US regarding slot machine ownership.

that would be cool if it were worth that much.. or even close. I’ve since pulled the trigger on this, and the seller will be porch delivering tomorrow morning. Paid PayPal goods/services, so I have some protection...

still curious what I have?

Its hard to tell from pictures, but this at least looks like its somewhat solidly built. Assuming its fully functional, maybe $50? I'm not an expert, but its only a table top and doesn't appear to have any special connection that would increase collector value. I'd say $50 max, but other members have better insight.

hmmm, I did a google search, and this exact model looks to for sale on eBay and elsewhere in the $150-200 range, but I didn’t put much stock in those numbers. But the $10 value makes me a bit fearful I’ve been played...

I don't know anything about that, but looks like a toy to me.

This game is a novelty toy. see youtube

Plastic arm?

Definitely looks like a novelty toy.. but I only paid $25 with free delivery. If we have a little fun with it, cool. If it’s garbage, not out much.

That is good news. You not really out anything, and the seller probably could use the money.

 

[redeagle]

Maybe he will deliver it full of coins for you....

Guys I think you're missing the gold mine of this investment. He can just keep spinning until he gets a jackpot and then it pays for itself!

No idea what it's worth but I've played with one of these when I was a kid - I think it's a good amount of plastic but for $25 it's a neat decoration/toy.

Probably worth that, Mine came from a flee market. It was a cool novelty.
