Coin Mech

Post by nude777 »

Hi Guys,

Can anyone suggest a good place for my coin mech SR5 from a global machine to accept the new 10p ect coinage, as my coin mech wont take the new 2011 coins, so if any one knows where i can get this done, that will be a great help.

PS allready tried "eurocoin" and no reply for 3months iv'e tried.

Ha Ha :-) the new coins 5p and the 10p that have different metal properties so my coin mech wont accept them cos there are of different metal content. (more nikel or zinc) I think.
I just wont to know if there is a DIY solution like a programmer and the software, I got a quote and they want to charge £130 for 45 mins work to change my coin mech LOL, would it be cheaper just to buy a second hand coin mech??? i'd like to DIY with the right kit.

Thanks

Try Maggi- Maggi,and will be cheaper if the mech works and just needs an upgrade for the new coins
