its been a few months since the last post on this thread, but i can tell you that 2 sites have been chosen, to which the existing landlord has said yes to change of use - that being the biggest hurdle.

AFAIK the back log of paper work for the 2 particular sites ( in 2 totally different boroughs) is some 3 months, so fingers crossed after that time we can start to gut the place and start filling it with machines etc.

would be nice to be in place in time for the world cup

Get some Monopoly multiplayer in and let me know where they are and I will come and take all the money.. lol.. Just kidding.. Good luck and if you lived nearer I would pop in and waste my money!!!

[nails]

hmmmmm

I do..and I won't......


Haven't the foggiest of what machines an arcade has now-a-days after years of being a mug.

Good luck to you Nails as business is business....remember Duplu can supply a banner though rather than use a thread to advertise

[CrAzYbAr]

As far as I've read your arcade is on the sussex coast... Where exactly on the coast? I always go down to the coast as it would be nice to pay a visit!
PLease excuse me if this is already mentioned!

As I said on a post ONE before yours.............

im not advertising, as itwas ot the intention of the post.

i personally am very happy, eager and keen to get to grips with this little venture, and wanted to share my joy - the same as some users post about a new frut machine they have proudly bought, whether it be a tuppeny nudger, or the latest barcrest.

I would, if the time ever come, very much like to meet adydb in one of the new arcades (not a million miles away from St. peters church/old steine) for nothing more than a cup of tea and a chat about the fruit-emu community.

I'd accept that nail's...Still lets make it after the close time of the Arcade and have a pint....

As I said as a business.........best of luck..........

St Peters............'n' Old Steine.............Nobles spring to mind?

[nails]

Nobles amusements have applied to expand its existing arcade in St james st. brighton, but was refused.

Nobles have spent much time over the years developing sites, and one of the key things for a prosperous site is its Width that you can see, and not its depth, and that exactly why they wanted to convert the shop next door (which they already own) to one huge arcade.

since nobles is an established high street arcde, they can get away with minimal percentages.

dont fool me though..

Stick SWP's in they don't need licenses - and get a couple of gameboxes (they go for about £300 each) and they take decent money. You need a license otherwise!

[nails]

well, you dont need a license for a £5 jp.

but...

you could always stick a £1000 jackpot in there as Customs and excise dont cover kebab shops

[skabaz]

yes but you need to be a licensed company to actually have the ability to site any machine into a public place to which you are not the owner of.

any fruit machine that has a jackpot of £8 or less and a stake of no more that 10p doesn't need a customs license that the site has to pay.
all trivia machines are exempt if they are less than 50p a go.

yes it does but the owners of kebab shops seem to think they dont.

But in this situation it would be rude not to hehe

[nails]

[mjvaj123]
