Elfin Cupid Crane Claw Machine by Paokai/WMH

Here's a very unique and rare machine that I ended up buying at an auction a few months ago. The machine was listed as having 2 faults: No sound Claw not closing Ended up winning the machine at the auction for only $120 and I fixed the faults in 5 minutes. The sound wasn't working because the speaker was unplugged and the claw wasn't closing because the strength adjustment was turned all the way down haha. I call that an absolute bargain. Buying any machine at an auction can sometimes be risky because you might end up buying a machine which is beyond repair or has had important parts stripped. But if you know what you're looking for, you can sometimes get yourself an awesome deal. Here's an explanation as to how the baskets work: There are 5 levels that the baskets can tip at. All baskets start at 0 and are totally flat. Every positive number that is selected by the lucky wheel will make the basket tip forward. If you get past level 4, the basket will completely tip forward until all items in the basket have been dispensed, then it will return back to level 0 and the game switches to the other basket. The operator can select how many games have to be played before a basket is won. Obviously this resets back to 0 as soon as the basket is paid out, but it also resets back to 0 if a plush is won from the machine. When the basket isn't ready to pay out, the arrow on the lucky wheel will not stop on any positive number that would cause it to pass level 4.
