Anyone got any news on how Steve is getting on? His site has been understandably quiet since mid April and I think they were originally looking at possibly end of April for next auction but obviously that wasn't going to happen after Steve's unfortunate accident so was just hoping he is well on road to recovering OK.

I wonder if this is true?
If it is the case, now would be a good time to list on eBay i suspect????

Not sure I have missed it as saving a fortune I fuel :cool:

Still not convinced about eBay person, as machines are still being removed. Also having started listing slot related items I am finding 20% of the listings get delayed by at least 10 to 15 hours. This is obviously while someone assesses policy compliance based on some automated logic triggers in the system. That is my view.....

What the logic triggers pick on I am still unclear as I have not found a pattern.

Listing a machine on eBay is one thing, actually selling something like an Allwin Deluxe for £750 is quite a different thing again.

we mustn't get into this discussion again but I will say this-

I will revise my view that its someone who reports the machines that get removed when anyone answers me one simple question," If ebays automatic police pick up the machines why do modern machines that are still usable as gambling machines and which there are literally hundreds on ebay NEVER get removed and vintage machines that are not usable as gambling machines get removed?" !SMARTY!

Wow some amazing prices there, especially the bandits. Jennings at prices not seen for years and those restored Hi Tops certainly looked fine with their top prices.

Only left one commission bid on a machine and what seems to have been the cheapest machine there which I appear to have won, anyone know if the Duomat was complete, obviously not being here took a chance :o

Apart from the glass of course... looked OK from the outside, but afraid I didn't look inside.
