BIGBALLS

listen guys to put this straight terry asked for all the games available for the rio , i didnt know he was getting any from here , so i used a guy that has all these games and he charges £40 thats for the games and 2 memory sticks which arnt cheap crap , plus there games which arnt on repo , there not on a disc !!!!! i though i was doing him a favour and he should of pm me instead of posting on here . also sells pik chips for £10 which i think would help people out but as its such a hassle on here .

also will add £10 to the site as it needs the help 

you can go through the commission as they are placing machines for play that are faulty or non playable because of buttons and bulbs not working as its classed

as unfair gaming and they have to comply with the commissions fare and open gaming rules . 

do you need it again john ? il put it on here if so

 

... what an utterly ridiculous comment to make. The asking price was £35, and to come here and say you would have paid £50 is rubbing salt in to the wound and you know it. It was for sale for £35 as that is what I paid.

 

Bar X is going to a chap on the Mecca who seems like a bit of a legend (so it's going to a very good home!!!) - as for Viva Mexico, it's a shame but I was rather pissed off after being let down, and decided I'd break it. To be fair 'BIGBALLS' when Bar X was last for sale, you said you'd take it for £50, which was a bit of an insultingly low offer at the time, since I'd just paid £50 on a mainboard and Chuzzy. I've now got £60 + a fiver to that forum's kitty, which I'm happy with - even if the machine did cost me much more!!

 

Selling fruit machines ends like this a lot - lots of friends know I keep machines, and they all say they'd love one... but then their other half or whatever gives them a reality check. When I was selling Bar X a while back (at a higher price), someone said they'd definitely have it, then just before they were due to collect it they said they couldn't come any more and didn't want it. Of course they had every right to, since they hadn't paid, but it's very frustrating (especially when you need the space).

 

Regarding the machine not having gone to a good home - I had wanted to sell it whole. Trust me, with the exception of DOND, breaking machines isn't particularly pleasurable. In fact it's not nice at all. I did regret it afterwards, but I was a bit annoyed and actually thought 'sod it, the hassle isn't worth £35'. A mistake? Probably. I've kept every part of it so it could be used to rebuild another cabinet in the future (only chucked the belly glass as the UV tube had completely ruined the paint - it had powdered and was coming off with the merest touch) - which would certainly be an option if I get bored. I've not stripped it for spares to profit, if required I could use the PSU / mainboard in my Clouseau.

 

I'd much rather someone came and just took a machine off my hands, and have previously given fully working machines away for nothing (albeit normally in the best condition!!).

 

i did pm you to buy it at £35 , but if you had re-listed on here after you were let down i would of offered you £50 for your troubles thats all mate .
