Hello forum members,
I would like to ask for some insight on this eBay listing. Antique Mills High Top 25 Cent Slot Machine #401329266104
It's located less than an hour from me. Seller asking 1200 and make offer is available. Thinking 1200 may be a bit high considering not 100 % operating and missing back door. What would be a reasonable offer to make ? My intention would be to view it in person first and cash and carry.
Also seller states:
Missing Back Door. Older restoration by Squires & Corrie. A nice looking machine that will need some minor tinkering to play 100%. Should not be a problem to tweak if you are familiar with slots. I did notice a couple of the payout finger springs were missing and there is an old weld repair on one arm of the mechanism. You have to push the handle back a little to get the escalator to return and reset.The machine cycles, reels spin nicely and all 4 clicks present ( should be 5 clicks right ). Sometimes does not payout.
Any red flags while viewing pics. ?
I thank you for your time and response and most importantly thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks
Jsin
