    Saw this in an ad. Any idea what that pipe through the left side of the cabinet might have been for?

    German reimport ?

    That pipe had a cap/lock on it. The route guy could unlock it and keys for the location would be in there. He could unlock it, get the keys. Service the games. Lock the keys back up. And go to the next location.

    As nasty as the inside looks I thought it might be to vent the stink out.

    Would have been pretty funny to see one of those installed as a mod on a Playboy machine....

    Yeah, or a "BOP", but they would have to locate it below the front door.

    that's the mouse port, so they have easier access to make a nest. Keeps them from chewing up the cabinet on you.

    We had a STTNG with the mouse port.
