[edit] Clean Up
I deleted some sections that had nothing in them....—Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.192.45.179 (talk • contribs) 16:34, 7 September 2006
[edit] Cheating the machine............
Could we mention that it is possible to cheat the coinstar machine if you put in washers, foreign coins, exc., and that if you get caught, you will most likely be thrown out of the place you are at? Im pretty certain that you can put washers in there and they can count as quarters.................--71.116.37.15 19:15, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- Your certainty is completely mis-placed. The precision with with the machines identify coins is quite high. Several different properties of the coins are checked. The likelihood that you can toss in a pocketful of washers and walk away with any money is essentially non-existent. Sean Martin 16:20, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Article Assessment
Rated this article as stub class of mid importance. This article blends the Coinstar Company and the Coinstar machine too much. It should focus on the company, including history, business model, stock history, etc. There should be separate sections on the company's venues and products, such as the Coinstar machines, movie vending and other items mentioned in the article. It is in heavy need of citations for much of the content provided and needs some general over all clean up. Adding the {{Infobox Company}} infobox would also be good. Wikipedia:WikiProject_Companies/Guidelines would be quite helpful here. Collectonian 22:17, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
