Title: Need advice to buyor not to buy?
Post by: Chris-socal on July 06, 2019, 09:05:27 AM: Hi friends, I saw this machine in person and its in really great shape.
What format is this game and is it worth it? I donâ€™t really have room to keep it long term so I was thinking of flipping it eventually. Im not overly fond of newer machines anyway.
He is wanting to sell it and isnâ€™t getting any bites online. He said I could have it for $400. Seems like a good price for this new of a game. It has a ticket printer but it doesnâ€™t accept tickets in due to legal reasons.

Can I make my money back eventually?

The printer could be set up to give and accept tickets. The vendor here, Bettorslots, sells a TITO kit that enables your printer to run on tickets.

I misunderstood, it doesnâ€™t have a printer at all, it was on one of his other machines. Personally I would rather have a 25cent machine, I probably wonâ€™t invest in a printer. I will just refill credits with the same bills.

It obviously should not accept coins. Dropping 90 coins for 1 max bet would be ridiculous. TITO is a neat feature should you decide to get a printer. Printers are very reasonably priced & the TITO unit allows you to use the tickets over & over. No need to keep a lot of cash on hand to feed it. You will definitely want a key chip to make changes to your setup & recommend a clear chip as well. Congrats on your purchase.

I looked briefly at tito, the only ones listed said 3 reel. Is there one specifically for a 5 reel?
Thanks all!
