Dave,

I saw that post the other day and I just figured he was smoking something that is not generally available from the vending machine that he is selling.  That is a very neat looking cigarette machine but give me a break on the price!!!  Or maybe it is gold-plated instead of gold paint???

It doesn't hurt to ask for crazy $$$...and he can tell the wife " I tried to sell it"...it just means he's keeping it for a long, long, time. Oo

ccman--I think you are on to his wise ways!

"Geez honey, I listed it three times on E-Bay for far less than I think it is worth and I just can't get a buyer!  I guess I will move it into my office."

Well, he is getting a little more reasonable on his price:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Cigarette-Vending-Machine-50-60s-Retro-General-Junior_W0QQitemZ250536426319QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item3a55227b4f

He better hope that his wife doesn't see this listing:

http://cgi.ebay.com/50s-VTG-CIGARETTE-MACHINE-GENERAL-JR-VENDING-RETRO_W0QQitemZ270503055012QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item3efb3d0ea4

If the second machine was closer where I could avoid the shipping, I might go after it.  This is a cool little cig machine!

I'd send him the link of the second one and say "Hey - you could make some money even with shipping"
