Drove down to Columbus and bought the HiTop this morning. It's in astonishing original condition and functions great. Jackpot counter reads 0053 -- machine appears to be well-maintained and never abused. The seller was friendly and is a devoted slots man -- he has a beautiful collection of outstanding machines. This HiTop is a great first slot and I'm pleased to own it. Thanks Jeff H. and others for your help and advice these past few days!
