Russian slot supplier Alsart announced it has purchased more than 5,000 used slot machines from key worldwide slot manufacturers, for resale to new Russian gaming entities that may operate in the nation’s four new “gaming zones,” to become effective July 1. A statement from Alsart says the company also will buy equipment from the current casinos, which will be forced to close on July 1, for refurbishment and resale later.
