I have a vintage chest type "slider" coke machine that
I'm trying to sell and I want to know how much it is
worth. The manufacturer is Cornelius and the model
number is
SVM-48E3.  The Serial number is 900080. I am not sure
what year it was made but the slogan on the side of it
reads "Things Go Better With Coke" which is the slogan
starting from 1963. The machine is in very good condition and its in working order.  On the inside lid there is a light
with a switch that works. Can anyone tell me what they think it might be worth?  I will post another message with a picture as soon as I can get one.
The strange thing is, it looks different than the Cornelius machines on this web site...maybe at little more modern.  The closest one to it is the compact 50, or 72, but I'm not sure.
Can someone check this model and serial number?
Thanks a million!

I've seen them go for as little as $50.00 for the early "vinyl-woodgrain" plain jane models, to around $200.00, going by what I see on Ebay, yours is really a nice one looks great with the two-tone paint! I'd "slide it" more towards the $100-150.
range to start, it's in working order and complete.. of course these machines are usally much more affordable that the same type in an Ideal or Glasco models. looks like it's closest to a Glasgo 50/Ideal 55 in size. well thats my option on it anyways ':<img:'>  hope it helps! if you're close to Michigan let me Know and I'll make an offer/trade! ( pending the approval of the "boss" [wife]!     '<img'>

Tim, your cooler sure look like a Compact 50 to me .I 'm betting that a  Coca cola bottler had a new logo put on it for that time period.

Yours is a little unusual in that the light is not a bar mounted from the back side. I sold one like yours without a light for what shocked me $425 on Ebay a couple of years back. I would be shocked if you couldn't get that from a Ebay bidder providing you could ship cheap!
