Hi, I have just aquired this fruit machine. It's been in the
family for a while and was wondering if anyone has any
information on it?

That's what I'm thinking as I can't find much information on it.

I've seen something similar.
But not with prizes that pay out 5Ps.
I dont think Barcrest did electro's so
suspect its an mpu1 tech.
Does it have sounds?
Looks very nice. But if it is mpu1
I imagine spares for it would be
Very difficult to source.

Thanks for the welcome. It has no sound but I'm guessing it's
not ment to as I can't see any speakers. Plugged it in and
everything worked apart from it wouldn't pay out, looked a bit
further in to it and noticed the actuators were disconnected lol
reconnect them and hey presto 👍

Guessing nobody else has any more info on this, age etc? Was
thinking about selling it if anybody could give me a valuation?

I'd suggest this is from the 70's so it is rare in that respect.
However, because of its age it will only really be of value to a
collector of this type of machine.
Valuation is hard to give as its only worth what somebody wants
to pay, but in my opinion looking at the condition from your
photos and the fact its working then its got to be £100+, but
sure some of our resident experts would have a better estimate
of value.

Difficult really when something
is so rare and mpu1s are!
As so are the spares department which
sadly forces values down.
Personally if it was mine I wouldn't consider
selling it. Although for best prices, I would
get a permit to auction it on ebay with a low
starting price, but add as much info as you can
with photos inside and out of the machine as this
may be tits selling point.
Good luck with whatever you decide though.
