Title: Coin Door from Uk/Europe
Post by: brianoneill on November 04, 2004, 11:30:26 am
Hi,

I'm looking at buying a coin door for my MAME cab with a coin mech that can handle MAME tokens.

I'd buy from happs.com or any other US site but I'll have to pay like 21% vat/tax on it when it gets to me in Ireland.

Anyone know a place on-line, UK/Europe source, that I can buy coin doors with mechs that suit MAME tokens ?

Cheers,
Brian.

I would think that Happ Europe stocks completely different coin supplies than Happ USA, but maybe not. Give them a call and ask if they have mechs that accept a .984 token. If not, you could make your own "Ultimate All in One Coin Mech" (http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=2;action=display;threadid=19200) that will accept anything you throw at it. I still have two of these lying around that I bought but haven't put into use yet.

Or, there are instructions on how to modify a standard Happ 25c mech here:

The mech shown is this one (http://www.happcontrols.com/coindoors/42311300.htm).

I got a quote from Happ Europe for an over/under door with mechs.  They quoted me over
