I was a slot mechanic for over 25 years. The reason they would drill into the side of the machine was to stick a rod into it to stop the clock. That's the part that was spinning with the spring attached to it. If you get good at stopping and starting the clock, you can make the reels lock when you want them to. It was something done by professional cheats that would have access to a machine somewhere. You would have to know exactly where to drill, how long the rod should be and what shape, and how to use it properly.

I had something similar happen with a local pawn shop. I bought a vintage firearm from a gentleman claiming it was over 150 years old. It looked the part and it had some paperwork. I later found out it was a recreation and was less than a decade old. I returned to the store and respectfully asked for a refund, providing evidence of its origin. Pawn shop owner didn't want to help at first, we got loud, and he kicked me out of the store, but called me back the next day, saying he didn't sleep well and wanted to make it right. We shook hands and he told me, "Money got me into this business, but my heart keeps me in it. I'm sorry I had to lose sleep before I realized my mistake."

[@Azugon]

I'd believe thats just part of the job for a pawn shop owner. They are risking to buy stuff to resell it for a higher price. Those mistakes happen to them too. From your story it sounds like the owner really believed it was a real vintage firearm. Despite him liking what he is doing he is also a kind and honest man. Thinking that I generally stay out of pawn shops despite the fact of them not being as popular in my country.

A true man can and will admit when he is wrong or has made a mistake. If the matter is significant enough to warrant an apology then a true man will also present one. In turn, a true man will accept a sincere apology. In your previous video I commended you for being a gentleman when you dealt with the disrespect and criminal intentions of a rude, vulgar, insulting and scheming drug addict. I would like to commend you again for going above and beyond. You not only chose to show all of the viewers that you were wrong, but went on to explain the details and particulars as well. You really are a gentleman and a professional. I wish you were in New York it'd be a privilege to patronise your establishment. 👍🏻

I appreciate your business ethics and honesty. I run a cell phone repair shop in Chicago and agree with you on it. I have damaged devices on accident being in a hurry and being pressured, resulting me in replacing the part and telling them about it, or simply me buying them a brand new phone. You have to be honest and work with customers, even if you have to lose some cash. Cash will always return if you have good ethics. Customers need to be happy. I try to be as honest as possible with all my repairs and phone sales with reports and warranty for my work that I actually honor. Ill stop by sometime soon to say hello some day, I have been wanting to see your shop. Pozdrowienia z Chicago!

This comment .. yes businesses shouldn’t be scared to lose money on a bad item.. The customer would lose the money if the owner isn’t honest and take responsibility. Glad there are honest guys like you, and doesn’t use bad excuses to avoid taking a loss. Like you said, the business will always make some more money and you will have a good conscience knowing that you didn’t make a customer have a bad experience.
