Put mine on there for a week, got no interest what so ever, it was on the front home page and everything! I saw a Red Gaming machine (cant remeber the name) with a starting bid of abotu £30 and it didnt even get a look

If you collect gaming machines (fruit machines, slot machines) as a private individual and you want to sell, repair or upgrade a single machine, you do not need an operating licence to do so. However, you do need a single machine permit from us:
Single machine application - form - October 2007

Single machine application - guidance notes - October 2007
The application fee for a single machine permit is £25.

just tell ebay `the coin mech has been completely removed to comply with ebay rules and can only be played on demo and not real money - email me for more info`

Fair points, although I would point out that your listing did get about 100 views in that week. Unfortunately actual sales are still a bit elusive, it's still very early days really.
I am working very hard behind the scenes to promote and improve the site, and I have sold quite a few parts and manuals on here, but until we get a continual "critical mass" of users, selling actual machines may not happen for a while.
To be honest most new independent auction sites disappear within the first year and we are coming up to that anniversary now, and still going, and still getting steady numbers of hits per day. So I am not entirely disappointed.

Thanks to those who who have taken and are still taking an interest in the site, it is very much appreciated. And I hope to be able to reward that at some point in the nearish future with an auction site that really is a viable alternative to Ebay for the fruit machine enthusiast...

I put it on facebook in the end and think my friends going to buy it lol, but i was looking at this fruit machine, think its worth getting or sound pricey to repair?
