11 Antique Slots For Sale

[Dave]

Well, I have been on an insane buying spree and once again it is time to thin the herd. Up for sale are duplicates of machines that are in my collection.

I have just spent the last 10 days going through the machines.

Here are photos of 11 machines that are up for sale along with a price list. Significant discounts will apply if you purchase multiple machines.

I have detailed photos of all the machines and if you want to see them let me know and I will email them to you. My email is Dave@IBuyOldSlots.com

If you want to purchase one or more of the machines do NOT assume they are still available. I may not have a chance to update the list as machines are sold. I will also probably put them on eBay.

UPDATE (as of 11:10: AM MDT, 9/19/13): The following machines have been sold. HH Bonus, Bird of Paradise, Orange Futurity (no side vendor).
UPDATE (as of 9:50 AM MDT, 9/26/13): The Rol-A-Tor has been sold. I have put out a new price list for the remaining 7 machines.

The machines are now on eBay. I have also updated the price list to reflect the machines that are still available.

Here is a brief description of the machines that are left. Unless otherwise stated, all machines have original locks. All machines do have original back doors. I have detailed photos of all the machines and if you need more information on the condition then just ask.


1. $.10 Watling Rol-A-Top Coin Front. Machine has been restored. Machine has been plated. Back door is Watling. The back bonnet is original Watling. The numbers on it are R15/R16. I have recently been informed that for this machine it should be R15/R83. In lieu of this fact the machine's price has been reduced by $300 to $3,200 (delivered to your door). The back bonnet fits well but since it is not the totally correct part for this machine I decided to reduce the price.
2. $.50 Mills Castle Front. Machine has been restored. Castings are not plated. Wood base is not original. Not sure about the sides. No back door lock.
3. $.05 Mills Castle Front. Machine has been restored. Castings are not plated. Wood base is original. I think the sides are as well. Original lock.
4. $.01 Mills Castle Front with gold award. Machine has been restored. Castings are not plated. Wood base is original. I think the sides are as well. Original lock.
5. $.05 Mills Castle Front WITH WORKING SKILL STOPS (hard to find machine). Machine works and is in original as-found condition. Small knick on top casting (where back bonnet fits). Not really noticable. Replacement lock. I have gone through the machine and it works.
6. $.05 Mills Futurity. Works and has all the special cheating parts. Replacement lock. Machine has been restored. Castings are not plated. Original wood base and sides.
7. $.05 Mills Futurity with gold award and side vendor. Wood base appears to be a replacement. Sides are original. Machine has all the special cheater parts in it. Original lock. Machine has been restored. Castings are not plated.

It is interesting that when you are selling, your prices are right up there. When you inquired about a 5c Treasury with gold award that I was asking $4000.00 for, you said it was way overpriced and that I paid to much for it.

I don't think the prices are out of line. Especially if you look at the discounts if multiple machines are purchased.

The right price is whatever is acceptable to both the buyer and the seller. Obviously at least 3 of the 11 machines were priced right since they were sold, per Dave.
Also, there is a difference in what an end user will pay compared to what a dealer who wants to re-sell the machine will pay.

I NEVEER PASS JUDGEMENT ON SOMEONES PRICE, IF INTERESTED, MAKE AN OFFER- NO ONE IS EVER INSULTED
BY AN OFFER. THAT IS THE STARTING GROUNDS TO ANY NEGOTIATION, AND PERHAPS A PURCHASE.

IAM IN AGREEMENT WITH THE SELLERS RESPONSE. THERE ARE ALWAYS TWO PRICES ON EVERYTHING.
THE BUYERS WHICH IS BASED ON HIS ABILITY TO PAY, AND THE INTENSITY OF HIS DESIRE TO OWN.
THE SELLER EVALUATES WHAT HE FEELS, HIS ITEM IS WORTH, HIS NEED TO SELL FOR FINANCIAL REASONS AND HIS ORIGINAL COSTS.
I NEVER PASS JUDGEMENT ON SOMEONES PRICE....IF INTERESTED I WOULD MAKE AN OFFER--NO ONE EVER IS INSULTED BY AN OFFER.

FOR THE BUYER THERE IS ANOTHER FACET TO HIS PURCHASE . IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF DUPLICATION, FRAUD, AND FAKE MACHINES
UNKNOWINGLY BEING RESOLD, THE REPUTATION OF THE SELLER, AND HIS ABILITY TO STAND BEHIND WHAT HE SELLS SHOULD BE THE
FIRST INGREDIANT IN BUYING.

I don't need lessons on buying and selling. I have been collecting, buying, selling and restoring slot machines for over 30 years.

Hi Dave, Have you listed any on ebay yet ? I'd like to put them on watch when/if you do. I've forgotten your ebay ID.

That statement is even funnier than your first statement.

Please - Terick made a valid point, in fact, one that many of us probably thought. Believe that we all can handle and even encourage varying points of view. If you have seen the machines that Terick has offered, clear that he is an experienced, gifted antique slot machine collector/restorer.
