This is a mirror of a thread I posted earlier on Fruit Forums. Thought I may as well post it here should anyone be interested in these bits for sale.

For Sale : SWP, AWP and PACHISLO machines
1) Barcrest Austin Powers fruit machine.

EDITED : Machine is now set to £25 / 25p / 78%. There will be no other decals supplied with the machine, as changing to another jackpot level would probably make the top plastics fall to bits.

Machine works fine (takes coins, pays out coins, no alarms) but the plastics have come away from a glass a little more than I'd like. Probably not unusual for machines with a large top decal, and it doesn't affect the operation of the machine, but don't expect mint condition - it's ex kebab shop.

£45 to me, and £5 to Fruit-Emu? It's got to be worth at least that in spares alone seeing as how it's fully working. Only selling as need the room! May be interested in offers as really need the space more than I need the machine!

WILL CONSIDER SENSIBLE OFFERS AS SPACE REQUIRED.
COLLECTION ONLY IF POSSIBLE. MAY DELIVER DEPENDING ON LOCATION - POSSIBLY!

2) Bell Fruit Manufacturing - Top of the Pops trivia machine.

Currently set on £1 ('six fun rounds for a pound' apparently!), £10 jackpot, 50% payout. Reasonable condition. As I've posted before on here, the game can freeze occasionally. Basically out of the god knows how many questions, I think one or two may lock up on video sequences. They are not common questions and it doesn't ruin the gameplay. It adds to the 'authenicness' - used to freeze on the same questions when we played the exact same machine in a local years back Posted Image

Other than that it works fine - takes coins (pretty sure it's not a £2 acceptor though, so it's 5p>£1 only) and pays out £1 via tubes. Not a touch screen which is great - no fiddly membranes to go wrong, just buttons / microswitches Posted Image

£20 to me, £5 to Fruit-Emu is what I'm looking for here.

WILL CONSIDER SENSIBLE OFFERS AS SPACE REQUIRED.
COLLECTION ONLY IF POSSIBLE. MAY DELIVER DEPENDING ON LOCATION - POSSIBLY!

3) King Camel Pachislo

Japanese slot machine. Apparently 'Skill' based but not sure myself. Entertaining if you are into long suck periods (only very small wins) followed by mental payouts (bit like a Slotto really). Bar-top size - weighs about 40kg if I recall correctly. Because of the low price I'll be offering it with 500 tokens.

Comes fitted with volume control (definately a necessary addition, one which many suppliers charge about £5>£10 for). 500 tokens as mentioned above, and the key. It's a front opener on a hinging door.

£35 to me, £5 to Fruit-Emu again.

MAY DELIVER DEPENDING ON LOCATION - POSSIBLY!

Machines here now, should be able to get pictures if required!

Note 1 - The SWP and the AWP will ideally need to be collected in a van / estate car. Yes, we've had Austin Powers in the back of a new-shape Mondeo hatch before, but I can't recommend it incase you break your car in the process!!

Note 2 - I am selling for two reasons -

1) I don't play machines any more (not since late June) and can't be arsed having anything to do with them (other than emulation type stuff!).
2) Really do need the room. Going to have to sell / scrap loads of stuff, and the machines are first.

Also note - as I am selling these on Fruit Forums as well as here, it'll be (should anyone be interested) 1st come 1st served. Thanks for reading :)

I'd of had both fruit machines but sadly I live miles away.
You should put them on ebay mate, I think you'd sell em easy and for more cash on there.

It's made by Bell Fruit, it's on £1 'Six fun rounds for a pound', it's £10 jackpot, and I personally upped it from 30% to 50% payout because I felt 30% (the legal minimum for an SWP here) was a bit too stingy :)

I think theres probably other settings - you may be able to knock it down to £5 Jackpot for example, but I've not looked into it.

It even comes with the original manual if you were interested in such things :)

Spalding, Lincolnshire. Nearest city is Peterborough (Cambridgeshire) and I live about 16 miles (30 or so minutes) North of that.

As I said, Austin Powers is ex-kebab shop, but I'll upload some pictures tomorrow after work. Got camera on charge, not used for a while and didn't expect both sets of AAs to need a charge!

Do you? So do I. I'm slightly tempted by the Pachislo machine. It's a novelty machine that you wouldn't be likely to find in a pub or arcade in this country. Spalding isn't a million miles away, it's just getting time off work, or driving up on a Sunday. I thought someone would have snapped it up by now.
I'm slightly temptedings.
