I too am after a club fruity no more than 3 years old and within 50m of the Pe10 area. Can collect.

I live in Pe11 :)

Anyway, best bet is to get in touch with local suppliers, you can find them in the Yellow Pages under 'Amusement Machines' or 'Amusement Suppliers', something like that.

The adverts in there will be aimed at pubs, rental of machines and pool tables, but they often have stock of machines for home use. Within 50 miles there should be at least 10 suppliers, just give them a call!

Make sure you mention it is for Home use, and you want an outright purchase. No point in renting a home machine unless you want to pay them £25 a week to stick it in your house :D

With local ones, you may well be able to go and look at the stock that is available - be warned though that fruit machine engineers will be out loads of the time, servicing machines e.t.c., so you may have to wait for them to get back if they have been called out!

What sort of budget were you looking at?

For £150 I was offered a Red Alert Club about a year ago, which I would have taken were it not for shite gameplay. If you want something like a Monty Python / Psycho Cash Beast Club [i.e about 5 years old, in the older Genesis cabinet], you are looking between £150 and £250 depending on condition, people you are dealing with, e.t.c.

Let us know if you get any prices, and we will see if they sound good :)

Sorry that I replied to the other post before this one, I'm at college and the window is as small as possible so the network nazis don't throw me out :D

Anyway, I never liked that machine, or its clone, HiLowatha. Btw, the machine is called Royle family, not Royal, which should help you find one. There isn't one on eBay, and most other internet fruit machine sites are total rip offs, so as above, I'd try a local supplier :)

I know of a website where you can get the machine you are after-

http://www.regalamus...price_list.html

A bit expensive but its the machine you want. Of course there are many fruit machine websites about, so you will have to search to find the best deal.

I saw one on ebay a few weeks ago. Try there just incase another has popped up.
