    Quoted from arpman:

    You could always message them and ask what currently available.
    Good Luck

    He would never be able to tell anyone all that he has in inventory, nor does he have time to do so. His exact words will be.... Stop by we'll be here!!

    Quoted from Clnilsen:

    Honest question... can someone explain how to find out what inventory Coinopwarehouse has at any given time? I follow them on facebook, but there only seems to be a 1-2 pics of random machines daily. I see pics of lots of machines delivered, so obviously someone must "be in the know"?

    As far as seeing inventory it is impossible unless you literally go in and look around. Your best bet is to constantly watch Facebook. Even then, allot of stuff there ends up never getting listed online, so again it is impossible to find out everything that he has. For that exact reason I try to stop in at least twice a week just so I don't miss anything lol. What exactly do you mean by "someone must be in the know"?...... Know of what exactly??

    Quoted from 80spit:

    Deals are always better when you are there and have a wad of cash

    Exactly!! Most people think that he is firm on pricing but most times he's not depending on what it is and if you are literally there with cash in hand. He's always taken good care of me for the past 17 years. I'm pretty positive I've bought close to 100 machines from him since then, most were arcades back when I first started collecting.

    Quoted from Slim64:

    I've noticed that too over the last year

    He explained to me what the reasoning is for that. These days being that pins are kind of a hot commodity the warehouse owners that he buys from have wised up and are trying to cash in, asking a lot more per machine than what they were asking 5-10 years ago. He deals with one guy that won't let him take anything unless he drops at least 20K per visit. So basically, he's paying more, so he has to sell higher to make up for that. Makes total sense to me. Even if we think the price is to high, everything he lists sells eventually because there's always someone wiling to pay more, especially over in Europe.

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    IMHO, there are too many eyeballs on coinopwarehouse to be able to get something you want at a good price these days.

    Agreed!!! I'm sure there are people sitting at the PC hitting F5 all day long. It would be allot worse if he wasn't a business page and people were able to get alerts for every single item that he listed.
