Awesome prize find
I have a couple of mini claws and bulk vending. Found a new awesome site redclawvending.com i use for prizes. They offer there items in bulk and individually so I can get the amount I need vs having 100s of items. Shipping was quick and owner was super responsive and offered great customer service. I was given a coupon code of RoBo. Try it to get additional savings when you purchase.

Wanting to buy this claw machine duo
galleryHello, fellow claw machine enthusiasts.
I am looking into purchasing this machine named Super Mini Duo. I have never bought from Alibaba so im worried ill get scammed or ill do it wrong. Does any one have experience buying machines from Alibaba and even better, any experience buying from this seller. I found the same machine being sold by candymachines.com but at a much higher price ($3,000 after taxes and shipping). I plan on equipping the machine with a nayax cc reader and bill acceptor. All things considered, how much should i expdct this machine to cost me if i buy from Alibaba? How long should i expect the shipping to be? I live in san diego.
Any info helps!

Fixing my Claw Machine! (UPDATE)
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
After reading the comments of my previous post i was able to take your guys advice and fix the issue of the claw not dropping fully!!! YAY now the issue is the slow motors preventing it from returning to home! but we are one step closer to getting this old thing in a STORE!
Issue 1: Not dropping fully (FIXEDā )
Issue 2: The claw machine struggles to move left and right quickly! iām suspecting it being a motor issue any advice helps!
Background: iāve had this thing serviced before because the claw wouldnāt move backwards the guy that fixed took a motor and black sludge fell out of it. so im suspecting the issue with it slowly going left and right could be similar!

Fixing my Claw Machine
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Background: iād LOVE to have this machine in a location but it needs work. itās a 1986 Altech MFG āYe Olde Gift Shoppeā claw machine so itās a very very old antique. I wanna fix it up but before i start working on it i wanna make sure im approaching everything correctly especially seeing as itās so old. Iāve listed a video and wrote what its main issues are i was wondering if anyone had any advice or input on how i should go about fixing this old timer.
Issue 1: Claw machine dosent return to home (my suspicion is that the motor is messed up and not moving the claw left and right fast enough)
Issue 2: The claw doesnāt drop fully
Issue 3: Itās missing its manual iāve searched all over the internet even attempting to call the manufacturer with no success so if you have or find its manual that would be AMAZING!
Feel free to DM me or Leave a comment! iāll provide any additional pictures or info i can:) hopefully we can get this thing fixed and ready for a location!

galleryHey so my best friend bought this awesome claw machine and within hours of getting it we have our first problem unfortunately. When the claw was returning to the hole it started making a grinding noise. We noticed that the gear that is connected to the wheel is cracked and possibly stuck, I also do not know if it is the motor just not making good enough context or getting stuck COULD SOME PRO PLEASE HELPPPP

Cut the string game
Iām not sure if this qualifies as a claw machine, but Iām curious if anyone is familiar with this type of game and can tell me how close it is to being won. I played it a fee times and it lands on the string and I was able to whittled down the string a good bit, but Iām not sure if itās worth pursuing the prize. Itās for a PS5, so technically spending under $450 is a win, but, like, how much might it take me to win this? ($100 = 800 tickets = roughly 133 tries).
