ooo, that looks like a beast, pretty much a clone of "shark raving mad" if im not mistaken,

in a way i wish i bought 1 thats more "round the board" based like yours as mine only has hi/lo nudges/cash, gamble feature and hidden feature, but nevertheless its already saving me money i would of blown on beers, i noticed on mine that theres 2 dead bulbs already , didnt notice them until earlier, i have replacements tho so not too fussed

i took delivery of a cock a doodle dough on sunday night and everything seems fine up to now, had a few machines off them before and never had any problems.

only thing that is annoying is that the spare bulbs they have given me dont seem to work?

cool, spare bulbs isn't really an issue along as the machine is fully working.

I'd of done the same thing mate they sound like they just turn up when they feel like it not good customer service at all!.

i dunno, i think its a matter of "luck"

for some its been excellent, for me i was quoted late afternoon last monday, then got an email around 6pm to say the guy was late, at 7pm the driver phoned to say he would be there at 8:15, and he was there bang on time, n as mentioned the machine is in better condition than i thought it would be in, (fully clean, no scratches/damage, no stuck buttons and smells new inside )

im actually thankful its here because if i hadnt loaded it with half my wages id be skint after my "binge" yesterday where i was rapped outta £180 on dond: perfect game, pacman £75jp, and some other crappy machines in the arcade (never again lol)

back on topic, iv noticed "advance leisure" are selling some okish machines for £80 or so buy it now

Just going to bring this up again ....

With my experiance with this company they are brillant.

The first machine that arrived broke ten mins after the delivery guy had gone.
Problems with it ( that didnt effect gameplay ) ::

1. The reel board unit was not screwed down
2. The earth wire wasnt connected to the power supply
3. A coloured bulb was out and there were only clear spares
4. The coin mech wouldnt open properly to reject coins
5. The power supply wasnt screwed down
6. No decals or stake keys
7. No inside cash door

After they replaced the machine with a £35 jackpoter it had.

1. All decals apart from the missing top £35 jackpot notes and stake and prize keys which both were selectable
2. Colour bulbs (which I think were factory new)
3. No errors what so every and still go all the wiring for the alarm and the note acceptor box ( though it has no note acceptor )
4. Everything was in place nothing hanging off or not screwed down
5. All original locks and manual was included

The machine was replaced on the same day when we rang to say the part for the first machine did not fix the problem. I even got a choice of machine to replace it with!

I would highly recommend this company, very friendly people and no ' well we cant do this and we canr do that because uve done this ' it was just right ok we will send u a part failing that u can have another machine.

[skabaz]

its good that they replaced it but why did they gave you a complete pile of unserviced shit in the first place.

if i were a company selling machines for private use i wouldn't be sending out machines like a lottery ie you might get a good one,you might not.

they guy said he had a hangar full of thousands of them

[skabaz]

unless he advertises them as sold as seen or unserviced then i would still expect a machine that works.

agree

one thing that did concern me was that the machine was not earthed.

This one though is in mint condish apart from a few bulbs out (and ive used all the ones they supply me with)
