Bill/WA:

Rotflmao!!

My kind of guy.

I recall observing a similar incident involving a pal of mine. He deposited his coins and got no response. Upon requesting his money back, he got the same "not our machine" response. He then nochalantly walked over to the machine, grabbed it and tipped it over to a 45 degree angle, where he balanced it for a moment, preparing to let it drop. The store manager quickly refunded my friend's dough, whereupon, he calmly restored it to its former vertical position. (g)

Best, Earlie

Bill, That "not my machine" crap is bogus. Do they get paid for having the machine in or outside their stores? Bet your booties. Do they get a piece of your money even if the machine rips you off? Of course. They also don't make some of the junk you buy in the store, but you can bring it back for a refund if it's defective.

However, your activities will eventually get you arrested. <g>
