A guy near me has a Buckley Slot machine for sale. I have never heard of the make. Anybody familiar with this make ? what are they worth? He is asking a grand for it but is taking offers.

buckley is a good machine.
they are for the most part, a mills revamp.
the machine pictured appears to be a clean, straight, original.
the neat thing about buckley's is, many of them have the criss-cross / tic-tac-toe payout configuration, as discussed elsewhere on this forum a few days ago.
very cool feature.
if this machine plays and pays correctly, a grand is not a bad price. it is not a steal, but is not retail either.
as is discussed here almost daily, clean, straight machines are worth a premium, especially when you consider what the dicked-up repros sell for on ebay.
you won't have to pay shipping, you can enjoy it tonight, and, you know what you are getting.
you could pay a lot more for a lot less.
if this were in my back yard for a grand, i would buy it.

Biggest drawback of the Buckley machines is the lack of a jackpot. They normally have a token dispenser when jackpot is hit - check to make sure this is present and working.

It's missing an air pump so I got it for $800
