Ran across this during a search.

No nothing about them as far as price or its value???

Seller states it works great and pays out!

Anybody that could help would be great!!

Can't say much about value, but it has a cool look. I was actually surprised how affordable old slots were inside at the Chicago show. There were models that were expensive, but not all were.

I spoke with a friend of mine that has had a few.  He stated that 1k was about all it's worth!!

Exactly, there were a lot of nice cool ones in that range.

That's a Mills High Top. They came in all sorts of variations and payouts. Not the most desirable of machines. I have the same machine (on 6d which equates to 10c.)

Like all things coin operated you have to be careful with what you buy. They were all serial numbered. So if you are really lucky the cabinet should match the mech. very unlikely.
Original Mills parts had MIB (I think) written on them. Sega were also producing parts and machines identical to Mills. Sega parts were swapped and changed. Sega is not so desirable.  

The Ginger Prince from the UK who lurks here is the resident expert. Hopefully he will chime in..

Have seen them on CL and in shops over the last few years anywhere from $800-$1800
