I bought this for my 3 year olds birthday about a year ago, but since we didn't have the space ready for it we kept it hid away unopened. We finally brought it out last night to surprise her in the morning but unfortunately the light post and till don't work? It doesn't light up, or do anything about the credit card/coins. Now that it's in place you can't get it out! The scanner and conveyer belt work great and it's very cool! I just wish that the whole thing would work after purchasing it. A bit disappointing seeing as it was brand new, unopened, packaged all up and no bumps or scratches.
