    I just saw this thread so I am a little late. If you dont have them, cranes. Self redemption is nice because you dont need the counter. Stackers, key master, winners cube. Not sure about the laws in az, but look into them. Here in mi it's not uncommon to walk into a bowling alley with 3 to 5 cranes with different prizes. I do run a route with some cranes and pins. I have $14,000 in pinball sitting next to one $2,500 crane and the crane doubles what the pins do.

    Quoted from desertT1:

    My location has a crane, but it’s not mine. It has slowly broken down and now literally nothing works on it. Lights, timer display, bill acceptor. I’m trying to get them to move it or have it pulled. I’m there every week for pinball tournaments and now ticket games, I’ve seen this person once in 3 years. Comes maybe once a quarter.

    I never split accounts for that reason. It makes you look bad. It's not your game but the customers don't know this. I would go to your local distributor, gather a few flyers, and tell him you will bring a new one in. A small prize cube will run about 2500. A bigger one for a few hundred more.
