I've talked with this guy a few times.. his Family had a Bottling plant in ND and they stockpiled alot of nice stuff... he has another whole building filled with signs and displays...and once in a while pulls one or two items out with HIGH reserves and doesnt' sell them. I bet he's got 100k on this as a reserve... 99% sure this will not end with a winning bidder. Would be cool to see in person though. Guy has mislabeled some stuff as well.

I sent him and email asking about reserves and why he is selling them as one lot, Also telling him he probably won't be successful with that , in a "nice way".

he emailed me back with his phone number and I'll call him tomorrow and see what he's up to .

Maybe he'll sort em out.?

Not that I need more machines.. but a 33 would be cool darn

I sent him the same email, and he wants me to call him back too. I was asking about a 33 and the 72... He is about 4 hours from me, but I spent half my childhood in North Dakota about 60 miles from him and I still get there on occasion.  I'll call him today or wed. -  Let me know what you come up with...

       I must admit this guy is selling no junk! Every one of those machines are
what we all refer to as "nice originals". Nobody ends up with that many machines
without incurring a lot strays along the way. Go visit him, you never know what
he has that isn't pictured in this auction.

       This Seeburg is certainly different

OK,

I called the seller and left a message, and just got an email back from him. His reserve is $20,000. and he has sale locally for 22k.

23 machines, 22k... someone do the math but it's about $956.52 per machine, obviously someone should go through the list and price the items.. but It doesnt sound that out of wack!??
the 81's at around 2200-2500 (based on some current ebay auctions)
not sure on the 33's?
and the others, Huh??
although I'd love in... I cant' swing it ,,, I just bought 16 machines for the same money( boy did I get screwed  darn Course they where 85% 81's..

I'd take a 33 out of it.
