Matt Or anyone else that may know?

Did you find anyone mobile to add new coins? I have 3 need doing, spoke to Darren but have to send them in which means machines will be out of order for a few days.

A right pain!

Thats the guy I bought my first 2 machines off, to be fair decent machines but he offered 6 months warranty. when they arrived 1 motor was not working and he promised to send me a couple in the post. Weeks passed with various excuses and 14 months later still waiting. It has put me off using him and anyway to upgrade its only a tenner if you send in, obviously extra if you want a service but still only £30 total, just the inconvienience of machine downtime.

Cheers anyway :thumbup:

I needed a couple of Polyvend motors, know where to get them from now but was the principal of it at the time, think they are less than £15 each, got a couple that occasionally stick or only half turn :shifty:

ID Vending from Manchester, Ian - I went up to have a look they had a dirty lock up in the back of beyond but to be fair came up with the goods and very helpful when I first started, just let me down with the 'warranty'

Snap, Another one I had my fingers burnt with, Yes him and Dave very plausible but their afyercare and warranty leaves a lot to be desired. I had to send my mates who live near him into see him before he coughed up a machine he owed me. Me or my Manchester mates wont deal with them again.

I was put off too but got decent (if a little overpriced with hindsight) machines and they delivered and set them up for me. Would probably use Selavend for the next one, you know what your getting and good company
