Best place to buy machines!

[ltearle]

Hello everyone!

I use a lot of American sites to find machines for sale ( like KLOV) but not many in the UK. What I want to know is, where are the best sites and places to buy arcade machines (besides here and ebay) in the UK?

The two sites I have used are FINDARCADEMACHINES and ARCADEWAREHOUSE.

Thanks!

Depends on what sort of games you are after?

, i'd try and avoid them both man, conmen and shisters are they rep they have.

Use Jeff at digitalsystemdesign, good machines decent prices and decent bloke.

Mo at videotronics is fine too, from what i gather

Blimeycharlie! Keep well away from those 2 - they are by far the worst arcade suppliers in the UK.

There are countless stories about those 2 ripping people off...

Well the machines I am after are classic. But at fair prices unlike what the two I mentioned. I just want to expand my collection with decen working machines.

I will have a look at those sites Ian, thanks

Haha. I did find the prices laughable. Just hard to find decent machines... Still waiting for that TRON to come up somewhere

I bought some real classic cabinets (through bulk deals) from Paul50's. The prices he lists on his website are quite high, but you can negotiate with him: http://www.pauls50s.de/ Plus he ships cabs for not too much money.

I don't buy much these days but I lurk on all the usual forums until something interesting comes up. Much of what you want is probably already in a collectors hands somewhere, you just need to be patient and wait for them to run out of space

Also, depends on what you are after but there was a (dead) Astro Blaster on ebay the other day that went for about £130 but I had to be stingy on my bidding becasue it's a long way from my front door and I am low on space.....

That Paul's 50s is a nice site, and I didn't think the prices wee all that bad either!

 

[ltearle]

Yea his prices seemed good and shipping is reasonable. May have to get a Ms. Pacman

Best thing to do is drop him an email, i think a ms pac or galaga will cost you 400/500 euro.
