Why not try to get them the same size as a quarter... so most of the coin mechs work with them? But I hacked my coin mechs to take any coin... So its not a big deal to me on the size. And I don't think there is an issue with the mame logo. Its pretty much everywhere 'emulation' related... but go and ask over on the mame board... You will probably get more people wanting some. Before you do order though (if you really consider it). Get a quote and send the prices around. |

the actual cost (MAME logo on one side, generic logo on the other, 5000 tokens, + shipping) will be just under $600... To make it worth putting up that kind of money I would expect them to be sold for like $18 (+ shipping) for 100 tokens. (& 250 for $40) I would be willing to do this if I KNEW I could sell enough to get my money back, but I would have to sell 35 lots of 100 (or 15 lots of 250) to recoup the $$$. If some one is willing to front that kind of money, step up... Otherwise this will just be another "I wish" type banter... |

Stop supplying coins and make the kids bring their own... The tokens will vanish too because they "look cool" or they'll discover they work at the nearby arcade as well and keep them for that... Put a "coin-up" button(s) under the control panel. |

That is how my machines are all set up. On all of them I have a small black SPST pushbutton in parallel with the coil mech microswitch. The switch is hidden under the control pannel. I am interested in going to tokens though just for the authenticity. |

Well, for 20 bucks with shipping... I bet you would get a few orders. And in a few months they would be gone. I would love to get some! And since they would be cheaper then a quarter (20c) per... They are almost worth taking your own down to chucky cheese... but they might get pissed... btw, they might not (legal reasons) sell any that will work in a happs quarter coin mech. Good question to ask. But I would be in for 100... I would have to find a way to tell my wife without her hitting me... So I wouldn't count me in on a DEFINATE 100... but a probable hundred... And if you had them for a month or so... An almost definate 100.... |
