Thanks geordy, that's good to know, although I have to admit to having to check that one via Google.
It's heart warming to learn that rolate are going strong and have been since 1964.

I was watching it, but missed the precise time it went under the hammer due to worm commitments. I would have gone to maybe £250.

I have been watching this thread as I too couldn't get round to the auction. I was at a mate's flat having some grub waiting for the auction lot. He had an old VHS tape on his TV of a fairground in the '70s which helped pass the time. Suppose at that price it didn't cost the earth, especially if you were there? Anyway, we had a few beers and he got that legless he couldn't tie his bootaces. I mean he's harmless enough but when he was a teenager he used to get into fights over his surname being Lid. His sister used to calm him down. I used to date her. Ann was her name, she got married but I remember her as Ann....

Well, I won the auction, arriving Wednesday or Thursday. £300, just need to get on Ebay now and get the trip that's missing, hopefully nothing else. I will post some pics when it arrives. Fingers crossed I can get it working.

Problem is the locks are usually ace type pin locks, a little tougher to drill, but I have done it.

Looks complete to me, the only bits inside that need to be there are the coin acceptor, pressure bar and cash box. If acceptor is there, which I assume is as coins are in the machine, then all good. Trips are complete and hammer

TF me old mucker, I refer you to my post above yours. The absence of a coin acceptor can be overcome with a bit of cardboard and Sellotape as I found out to my own distress, simply because there are coins in it is no guarantee.
Also take a gander at this enlarged picture of the machine, you may wish to reconsider your assurance that all the trips are there. You may also agree with me that the Bonus trip is in backwards.

Only just read BP's comment and yes half a trip missing, bloody eyes....one wonders where these go. Also on previous threads and the jackpot levers being reversed, which seems to have been a common thing happening to me as well and others. I wonder if not an accident and operator being stingy.

On another point looking at the pictures, is the glass cracked top left as I see old tape running across?
