Auctions further North
Site admin comes to the rescue again. Well done that man and for all the research carried out by Badpenny.
SUGGESTION - could a pressure group be formed by slotties to encourage a change in the legislation - say of machines 20 years old or more?
Could we have a vote on it and send it to a favourable MP?

A gaming machine will remain a gaming machine even if its coin slots, payouts etc are removed so don't try that one!
Scrap is not defined in the act but more generally in criminal law. If the item were to be scrapped then the machine would have to be rendered totally useless i.e. crushed. If the item could be easily returned to its former condition then it would cease to be so.
I would suggest that even taking the mech from a machine would not render it scrap as a new mech could be inserted. It would need to be crushed!
This would probably end up as a Test Case but I wouldn't want to foot the bill! Remember the Gaming Board having endless pots of money and Bonhams didn't want to challenge them. You have been warned!
On a lighter note, if the Northerners arrange an auction, I will be there!
Good luck!
