Prize Vault - machine for suckers
This Prize Vault is located in the food court of the Paddock Mall in Ocala. I've often sat and watched people try to "unlock" a prize using hand levers. I have never see anyone have any success.
But it's very tantalizing and addictive because you can come extremely close. Thus people keep shoving dollar bills into its maw thinking that next time they will get that prize!
Wish I was the owner!

Sounds like it works on the same premise as a slot machine. Next time, maybe!
Bill always says something like 'I wish I were the owner of that machine...I could probably be retired by now!" But we are anyway.
I can see people getting aggrevated and spending more and more money.
:-D
Best regards from France my friend !

I think the real winner is the owner. ;)
Set one up! :-)
Conning people out of their money a little bit at a time.
People do like challenges, especially impossible ones ;-)
I'm not a gambler but I do enjoy watching other people play these machines.
SUCKERS!
You won't find any of my dollars in that machine.
Might as well go shove your money in a slot machine at the casino.
Greed!
i never test this machine but i like see people test it
As they say "there's a sucker born every minute".
I won a galaxy tab 4 7" and spent 5 dollars
I won an iPad Air on this in Texas.
