Re: Elephant House Auctions

I wonder how many more commission free auctions the EH will run in the future?? Must be losing a fair amount of money being so generous....

Re: Elephant House Auctions

The EH was packed today. No chairs to sit on either....bandits are my interest and today was definitely a good day for sellers. Unfortunately for me, I decided to pass on the Buckley bones to save my money for the Jennings buckaroo which did look really nice. As it happened I missed out on both. I j...

Re: Elephant House Auctions

I have always paid cash at the EH for winning purchases. I remember they used to add a surcharge if paying by debit card hence I pay with notes. Having looked at the EH t&c I see no mention of this now. Am I right in thinking this charge has now been waived?? Looks like this Sunday's auction wil...

Re: Posting a wanted advert

Hello Mr B. It won't work on my ipad or Samsung tablet. The page loads with a list of payments, which dissappear quite quickly, then the drop down menu becomes unresponsive. Sorry to be a pain. Maybe some else can check this out? !PUZZLED!

Re: Elephant house auction

Considering the EH will have hundreds of items to log, hundreds of emails to reply to etc I am sure this all takes considerable time and effort. Same goes for the Coventry auction I guess. Only a few more weeks until our favourite time of the year guys and gals.....

Re: It's happening again

Thanks for the replies. I was not aware you would be charged a final fee if an item was removed. It’s been a while since I last sold anything on fleabay! (Better name for it...) I have had a few bad experiences buying things on fleabay so avoid it now. Used to love it, but now would rather buy from ...

Re: It's happening again

I thought you could remove an item if you listed it wrong? No charge. So like you are saying if you list an item for £1,000 instead of £100 and remove your add for a mistake with your listing, you will get charged a sale on the £1,000? Don’t sound right to me.

Re: Mills high top - Fremont

Nice looking machine you have. In Vegas many hotels and casinos had their names on machines. Some had their names on the jackpot symbols on the reel bands also. It’s quite possible this machine came from the Fremont hotel, but as it’s a basic high top I would guess not. Just my opinion. However, if ...

Re: It's happening again

Items on eBay are sometimes removed by the sellers not just eBay. When something nice comes along, sellers are bombarded with messages from collectors/dealers saying I will pay you x amount for your pretty machine and I only live just up the road from you etc etc..... Anyone smart on eBay should rea...

Re: Person to service Caille mech 1934 Dictator

Would you mind posting a few pictures of the top of your reel kicker please? Mine doesn’t look right and flops on the reel plates after kicking reels. I have a silent Sphinx. Thanks.

Could you not make a right angle piece and bolt it to the broken reel stop? Might work?

Re: Lost Hi Tops

It appears that more people are looking for slot machines which is driving up the prices. Plus the lack of auctions of late, meaning fewer opportunities for people to acquire them. This years Coventry auction could see a good selection of bandits for sale, well I hope so.....especially as the EH see...
