Automatic shuffling table on eBay

Archived from groups: rec.games.mahjong (More info?)

I saw an automatic Mah-jong table on eBay for less than 100$!

Looks worn out, some pieces missing, and not functionnal, but maybe
worth it for the spare parts or to start a reconstruction.

There's also another catch : the winning bidder must be picked up
within seven days after end of auction in a Los Angeles' warehouse. No
shipping offered.

All the ones I know are all in Japan and China. There's a Chinese
compagny who's planning of distributing tables in the US. But, I'm not
aware of any plans for Europe.

I already have those threads archived. If I win the auction, I can get to
them quickly.

I have another resource available as well - my Little Tokyo friends have a
lot of experience getting these things to work!

Cheers,
Tom

Good heavens Tom! You might have this treasure for just 31 dollah???
It's almost for you, with just 3 hours 52 minutes to go!

Tom
Please write extensively about it on your site, like André did. How do
you pick it up, how do you get it in your appartment, how you fixed it
(~_^), etc. I guess it is an interesting piece of furniture, you will
have to get rid of your lounge suite ;-)

Hi Tom -

damned - and I thought it was a great deal to pay 100 EUR for my
KAKINUMA shuffle table ;-)
CONGRATULATIONS from one shuffle table owner to the other!

If anybody is interested in more KAKINUMA pictures - look here:

Wow, great! Those files are specifically for a machine called Jansui, by
Cosmo - we'll see how applicable these are to my machine (I haven't received
pickup instructions from the seller yet).

I can read the part names (MG Idling, MG Idler Assembly, MG Rollers, etc.)
but now if I could also read the verbs (the parts that tell me what to do
with the named parts)... (^_^) But we'll see what's up with the thing when
it comes home. As Martin predicted, a big challenge will be figuring out
where to put it. Some other furniture will have to go, methinks.

One thing at a time...
Cheers,
Tom

I bought two used tables when an asian hotel in Germany was renovated
- one table for André Marohn, the other for me. With the great help of
André both tables are shuffling again.
And now we will have a little shuffle table tournament with our dutch
friends in July ...

Ah! Danke. I needed that.

(I probably spelled something wrong.)
