Hi I have brought a Barcrest Monty Python Flying Circus £250 4 reel club machine off a guy on ebay when I went to collect it he said he would post me the keys but that was 2 weeks ago and I still haven't got them is there any way of me getting a key to open it up ?

Many thanks

Easy enough to drill out and put new ones in.
What type of key does it take? A flat one or a tubular one. If it takes a flat one, it may be a standard 92250 which are easy to come by.

have you been able to contact him since the auction?

just ring any local locksmith and ask them how much it'd be to drill the locks..

There are two types of lock on there 1 is a flat key which is at the bottom which i think is the cash box and the other is a round lock with i think opens the top of the machine.
I have emailed him and he said he sent the keys out by post, he is going to supply me with a new set of locks its just in hassel of drilling the others out.

People are cunts mate.
You buy somthing and all you ask is it to be fully working etc....
I agree with you,You dont need the hassle of drilling out locks coz of some cunt who lost the keys.
He knew this befor you brought the machine aswell .
And he posted thin air.
God these ebay crooks make my blood boil.
I would now cause chaos incare of ebay with him.
Dont just let him off.
You dont want new locks,You want the keys.
And if you dont get them,Then tell him to get his machine back.


I repeat it once more

Hes a cunt,End off.
