Thanks.....
I imported some nice stuff....iPad 64GB with 3G, Airport Extreme and a Magic Trackpad...yes Mr. Jobs got a bit richer again....but it was all so "cheap" there
The glasses seem to have survived. I've also got a Funspot mug and my son "bought" a Funspot poster from some of the tickets he got from the redemption machines for me....saying "you can put it up at Eurocade dad"....which was touching to hear
Funny thing....I was watching an ancient movie (1981) called Arthur on the plane back home (yeah I know....ultra-cheesy but I hadn't seen it in about 30 years)) and there's a scene at an arcade and there's plenty redemption stuff and tickets, even back then. Arthur did have an arcade machine at his house but the in-flight LCD was too blurry to see which one I think it was Tron. He also had a pinball. And he mentions Space Invaders while being in the arcade....
Anyway, this proves that redemption isn't something of the recent years....it works great though, my son was pretty nuts about them....I figure I could have played at least two whole nights with the 175 tokes I got with the coupon and 20 bucks....but my son sped it up "a bit" with those machines. Did tell him to cool it though, and he still played a good number of classics as well....anyway, we all had great fun...
