1UP:
So getting back 3-4 bucks for spending $20 is fair?

I'm telling you, it's the same in any business.  You're just proving my point.

I assume you are at least taking advantage of your casino connection to pick up some free cabinets and monitors right? SOME casino cabinets make excellent mame cabinets.

well its a good time to get your site going with sales...right before christmas!  maybe you can rack up 3 or 4 cabs before christmas and jumpstart your business.  im sure the craftsmanship will be great, and you will definitely make fat bank on those cabs if you can sell a few.  you better get to marketing that though!  

i got a girl at my work who wants me to build her a cocktail cab, and if that turns out decent....ill offer it to others at work, and maybe they'll want one for the "grandkids" ;D

Wait, your machines are set to 70 percent? Have you not been audited by your state gaming commission? Are you not required to post the aggregate payout? I know at Harrah's here in St. Louis it is something like 95 percent.

It can be 95 percent, it still eats all your money. The casino could set their machines at 99 percent and still make money (I'd get rid of the free sodas then though, since it would take people much longer to lose their bankroll).

From what I have seen most gamblers who play machines walk in with a certain amount to lose and they play until they either lose that amount, or win some large amount.
