I've got a machine being picked up by Proovia this week. Their feedback looks pretty good - most of the 1* reviews are from people asking why they didn't carry a grand piano upstairs and similar, and sellers 'overselling' them - claming they'll do everything like unpack and test (they are a courier company, like they have the time to unpack and test everything for customers?!) Mine is machine being collected from a garage and delivered to ground floor so hopefully all goes well. Solid machine, all metal body, and it'll be clingfilmed up (not shrink wrap as I forgot I ran out!!). Total price the buyer paid was £88 which to be honest is very close to the £80 or so most other couriers I've used charged, but with a much quicker (hopefully) timeframe. He booked it all last night, it's due to be collected on Friday and delivered to him Saturday. Some of the £80 couriers I've used on FB e.t.c. have - while we got there in the end - involved massive delays while they plan routes, have van issues, e.t.c. As for palletised - I've had machines collected via Palletline and it was great, but makes more sense when either doing large machines, or multiple machines per pallet. I had two dometops brought from Wales to the East Mids and it cost me about £75 from memory, and they came a day early - think they were collected on a Monday and delivered on the Tuesday or something else bonkers. Could have probably got another one, maybe even two on the pallet. If I were buying job lots that's the route I'd aim to take.

Re fitted the coin mechs, adjusted and tested with old 50p and 10p coins, all worked fine. Test play went well, just need a minor adjustments to the solenoid on reel 3 as its not always engaging fully. I'll leave that to Dan to sort later. Other than the reel adjustment the machine is back up and running, ready for to go home and join Dan's electro mechanical collection.
