Re: Coventry Auction Sunday 29th November 2015
Well done everybody.
Yesterday was a classic example of what represents a "Slot Auction".
There were machines for all comers from Winter projects and entry level, to those you needed to sell your Granny for.
Sadly I've run out of Grannies and although I bid on three machines I finally went home only with a spare JP bank and something I actually bought at last year's that someone else accidently walked off with but returned yesterday.
The auctioneers Kev and Steve did a superb job and rattled through just over two hundred lots in two and a half hours.
Shame about the one armed dyslexic porter who couldn't tell the difference between a bag of pennies and a book, but I guess he can't be far from being put out to stud.

Prices can now be viewed on the new auction website:
http://www.vintageamusementsauctions.co.uk/
I've also emailed prices to Mr PM, to be included in the Arena. Thanks to everyone who attended; buyers and sellers, who together made it yet another great day - one of our best ever I think. I shall come up with a report for the December magazine, but in the meantime, please make a note of the date for next year's auction: Sunday 27th November.

Re: Coventry Auction Sunday 29th November 2015
I just see on the place of the prices there are the letters n/s or n/f are used. Does it mean they are not sold? For example the jennings bingo belle.
Thanks and greetings.
Thanks and greetings.

Yes, N/S = not sold. N/F is 'not found', which basically means it didn't turn up!
