Had a good one ![](/board/images/smile/biggrin.gif)
Thursday night put a best offer in for a globel games fruit machine £100.
They took it so i went to collect it friday night, managed to squeeze it into my 308 ![](/board/images/smile/lol.gif)
The guy said it was set to free play and he never put any coins in it.
Got it home and took it to bits and there was over £200 in it ![](/board/images/smile/lol.gif)

i was wondering that, surely he'd hear it rattling as they were moving it? ![](/board/images/smile/confused.gif)
fair play mate, always wanted a gambler in my house, would get a bit boring after a while I guess though

Depends where the coins were. If it wasn't ready to drop then the coins don't rattle that much.

Spot on
Seen this a few times,
People check the cash boxes but not the hoppers, the coins wouldn't rattle if they were in the hoppers.

Am i the only one thinking that the machine might be stolen, and this is why the seller didnt know about the money (because he didnt have the key/tools to get inside it)

It looks like a pretty old 4 reel gambler, I doubt it would of been stolen. Even so, do you think he cares?
