Preferably within an hour of Dayton. Not looking to spend to much would like to keep it around $50 but if it's a newer machine I can increase that so please don't hesitate to show me something you have as I'd love to have a more modern one If I could get one for around $100...

Basically I've never played one of them before and I find myself really curious about it so let me know what you guys have.
 
I just bought 2 on the cheap for a try as my first ones.
The pair was out of Cleveland on Craigslist.
(listed as $100 each or both for $150, but he took $125 for both)

They included cabinets which was a nice bonus.
Late 80's/early 90's models with small LCD's in the center that play pretty cool cartoons.
One with kanji is called "Tokyo Diary" and the other is "Magical Chaser".

check out www.pachitalk.com which is similar to KLOV for them.

Keep watching on Ebay and CL. They show up periodically, sometimes just down the street.

For maximum playability, either go for the all mechanical ones (earlier than the ones MacPDaddy is showing) or the newer ones (large LCD screens). The inbetween ones are somewhat fragile and are not as much fun. Think early SS pins vs late EM or DMD pins. They just hadn't quite figured out what to do with the electronics. I have all three eras and I play the mechanical one and the late models about 10x more than the small LCD one.
