Just because old machines might look cheap to buy on eBay doesn't mean new machines are the same price.

Ticketer charges a huge amount to convert old machines to a new user, better off buying new to avoid getting caught out.

Plus, those that go on sale are generally the old model which lack contactless support. I know the talk wasn't about old machines, but worth mentioning anyway.

I've heard different figures from different sources hence why I was looking for some clarity. My guess would be around the £700-£1000 mark per machine.

I'm assuming the four operators who have just switched to Ticketer have conducted some sort of combined negotiation with Ticketer for a reduced price, hence the commercial sensitivity.

I'm just wondering what the actual list price is for the machines.

A couple of our Optares have the new Nbus adverts showing because they are used on the 318 which enters TfWM land at West Hagley where passes can be used and purchased to and from Stourbridge but not, unfortunately, in Worcestershire.

The 39A route is being revised between Northfield and Weoley Castle, hence the extension of the 48.

What do you mean by settings? I know the standard sizes if that helps, if it's something else, I can try and find out for you.
