Hamilton XE validator repair

[OLFOT]

Who are some real good Hamilton bill changer repair folks besides going direct to Hamilton. I've gone direct on multiple occasions and gotten good repairs but they charge full list on everything. Who's the go-to that doesn't charge an arm and a leg and does competent work.
I tried one that I thought was good and they have turned out to be a continuing nightmare, the validators still didn't work right when I got them back. I had to send them back and they can't figure out whats wrong with them. They have had them for over a month now.

Do you need a Hamilton validator for some reason? You definitely won't regret a Mars or Talos conversion as you mentioned in your other post. They are far less finicky and just work and work. Most people don't even clean them.

Hey Bud, I've already converted it over to a Talos. from Etowah. I was basically forced to because this "long time" "big name" bill changer outfit can't seem to repair the two Hamilton XE'S I sent to them. I will likely sell them "IF I EVER" get them back.
I learned about the reliability of the MEI's way back when I got rid of the Coinco's in a double American changer at another location.
Thanks for your reply. After bouncing around here and doing some reading I'm learning all kinds of things I didn't know, even as a experienced carwash owner.
