Northwestern Gum Ball Machine

Eric/Brian

I'm going to pass on the one in the UK.
I want to get together three or four good quality gumball machines (whilst the dollar is so good against the £) for my room. I have until June. By that time I should have found what I'm after.

Thanks for the offer of looking after them I might just take you up on that.

No problem guys. I'll see what he has in the way of 49's and 49 coin boxes.

Hi Brian

well I didn't have much choice with the gumball machine. My wife has bought the one in the UK for me from the kids at Xmas..

So, instead of whole machines could you plse enquire about parts... Sorry to muck you about but I have to do as I am told....

Wasn't it a year or so ago Mrs Birdman scolded us for corrupting you and egging you on, and now she bought you a Northwestern?

I'd say you have a pretty wonderful Wife and Family.

And I'm sure  you'll get plenty of help  from us to get  the parts you need.

It was indeed...

I think that she secretly sneeks into my room when I'm at work, plays my pinball and drinks my coke.
Whilst listening to the jukes..

Persistance pays off in the end..

The 49 turned up yesterday...

It's in great condition...Having been professionally re-sprayed recently.

There are a few bits missing or well rusted. The bit with the springs on is in an awful condition.
The shute is also missing.

Eric - Have found this...

He seems to have your cashbox... If it satys low I'd be happy to pay and have it shipped to you for your cashbox. If you could then ship on.
