Had a good one

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

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

i was wondering that, surely he'd hear it rattling as they were moving it?

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.

B3's are the ones to buy

If you get one of them with a full hopper, your one lucky bastard.

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?
