BLOODY HELL CARLOSGEE YOU FOOL.

Sorry but theres no excuse for what you've done.

1) You've sold a machine on ebay as 'Fruit Machine / Bandit'. If I were searching for a machine in price view I'd go straight past that, as at £10>£20 I'd assume it was a plastic table-top Argos affair. You've got 40 or more characters to use in the eBay auction title, use them! If you'd included 'Crazy Fruits Club Machine, £100, Please Read Listing' you'd have got WAY more looks.

2) You've not stated the *actual* fault in the listing. If you said 'it doesn't turn on', someone might assume it's just a knackered PSU and buy it on that basis. By just saying 'Faulty' no-one in their right mind would bid seriously on it. I wouldn't bid on a machine at the last moment when I haven't a clue what I'm bidding on. Heck I could win it and then be told 'oh and the PSU blew up, the Scorp4 board caught fire, the hopper fell to bits, no reels work...'

I know it's knackered but in it's current state I would have paid £40 or so minimum for it as a project machine. You've given away ONE OF THE MOST IN DEMAND MACHINES ON EBAY - even in spares terms it's a gold mine!

For shame!

I didn't think Carlos was selling it as his first comment was he can't get up there to collect so won't be buying it?
