I have some more mechs sitting here that I can modify to accept any coin or to accept only quarters and .984 inch (size of the BYOAC and MAME tokens) but reject anything else. PM me if interested I can accept Paypal, cash, or money order. Also, in your PM please also include if you would like the any coin or $0.25/.984". Thanks!
Accept any coin OR .984/$.25
$12 shipped for a pair
$22 shipped for 4
and if you would like more than that I'm sure we can work something out.
I have sold a bunch of these at various times to the wonderful people here on BYOAC. Ebay feedback (clark-e) if you would like some feedback. I Just don't have many posts since I usually don't know anything more than the veterans here or else people beat me to it.

Thanks for the coin mechs!! Wow - fast shipping; got them yesterday all the way on the left coast. Interesting; they are made by "Coin Mech Inc." and are metal and not plastic.
Worked like a charm in my Bally 80's coin door.
Much appreciated!
-
im interested in 2 mechs that take BYOC coins and quarters only
-
Thanks to all that have ordered, all PMs have been answered (I think). I still have more so don't be shy!!
Drum - Glad you enjoy ;D
Peanut - Just sent yours out today, should be there Tuesday/Wednesday
Lustreking - Yours will go out Monday
-
I just got 2 mechs from ArcadeNerd and they work great.
He was also mega quick to get them to me.
Thanks again!

I had a bunch of mechs left and have gotten even more so I dropped the price a bit if anyone is still interested. Plenty to go around!!
-
I am interested in a pair that take only $.25 and .984 tokens only, I dont want "any coin" mechs.
-
all mechs aren't the same are they? would they fit in a gauntlet machine? I might be interested in 4 if they would. Mine currently accept all coins (quarter and less) but wont take tokens.
-
Just wanted to say I bought a cpl of these and they work great.
Tokens and quarters drop in and most everything else is rejected.
Fast shipping too!

@Lilwolf
As far as I know most all coin mechs are the same as far as arcade games go. If anyone has any more info I'd be happy to know. A lot of the times the coin doors are different but despite their make they all can fit the standard coin mech.... I think. All of the mechs I have ever seen come out of machines were the same. If you could send me a picture of your mechs I could tell you if they are the same. PM me and we'll figure it out ;D
@dweebs0r
Glad they're working great for you but I was wondering what isn't being rejected for you? you say they take the tokens and quarters and "most everything" else is rejected. Of the coins I put in I believe everything was rejected. If there is something I'm missing PM me and please let me know. Glad to see they're taking the quarters and tokens like champs though ;)
-
Umm, a cpl things slipped through. Cant remember exactly what (I think it was a cpl of Canadian coins that I had from who knows where). I will experiment and get back with you.
That being said, at least 95% of the stuff was rejected.
-D
-
Might be Canadian quarters... I have a couple in my barrage of coins that I put through each of the mechs after I mod them and sometimes it gets held up and sometimes it doesn't. Other than that I haven't come across anything that sneaks through but I don't have access to a lot of coins besides the American ones (nickles, dimes, and pennys get rejected) and some random tokens/currency I could gather up. I usually focus on getting all the tokens and quarters though but I'd imagine there is something out there that can trick it.
-
I hope the post reflected that I am quite satisfied with the mechs overall.
They work perfectly for my garage-kept classic arcade.

-
Good, glad to hear. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something that I was missing. Enjoy ;D

Just wanted to bump this as it is an exelent offer.

Do you still have these available?
Someone please educate me, are coin mechs universal? Will they fit in any coin door? I can't remember what brand mine is.

Yup, I still have a bunch available!!
Up in reply #9 I offered what I know of coin mechs and coin doors and that applys to all of them that I have seen so far (not as many as some people here have seen though so I'm definatly not the coin door know-all source). Usually the door varries and the mechs are universal I think.
-
Received mine today. I paid for them 4 days ago. Awesome! They work great by the way! ;D ;D ;D
-
I recieved mine today too, they work great, much better then the cardboard chutes I had in place :)
-
I'd love a couple of those $.25 / .984 mechs. I've sent you a PM.

Dervacumen --> you have pm
I still have plenty available if anyone still wants these ;D

I had to modify the mechs to fit into my Indiana Jones pinball. There were two small black setoffs(?) on the mech that would hit the back of the coin door which prevented me from fitting the mech properly. I clipped off the two setoffs with garden shears and then I sanded it down. Mechs fit perfectly now.

I got my mechs the other day (thanks for the quick ship!) Seem to work fine...fed the mechs a penny, dime, and quarter...all went through with no problems...I even gave it a Sacajewa (or however you spell it) dollar...went through with no problem.
Thanks Arcadenerd!

You're welcome, glad you enjoy!!
I'm starting to run pretty darn low on mechs now but I can still fill a couple more orders. If anyone's on the wire better jump in before they're all gone. I don't think that I'll be getting any more in the near future either.
-
Thanks ArcadeNerd!
Got my mechs in last night and they work great. Appreciate the fast shipping as well!
:cheers:
