i agree that the cage and the bill breaker machines should only give "playable" bills.
but i'm pretty darn sure that the bill validators and bill breaker machines have been retrofitted to accept "new" bills. in my experience, the problem has been that the bills they give you are often so worn that the machine won't recognize them as legitimate. they have creases down the middle or are significantly faded or have holes in them, as if they've been chewed up previously by an uncooperative bill validator.
i think THAT may be the real problem, not that the bill validator doesn't recognize the new bills.
just curious, ralph... do you regularly take a marker for $400?
