If you do get it, I'd like a pic of the coin mech!
I bought a NOS DuGrenier mech a while back and not sure whether it goes to the candy or cig machine. I'm thinking candy since it has a nickel/dime rejector in it.
Sorry, no idea on value.
Good Luck John!

I have looked at a few but never pulled the trigger.  I recall being told that parts may be harder to come by because they are not set up the same as a Stoner.  But that may have been about a DuGrenier Cigarette machine now that I think about it.  I have always liked the looks of their machines though!

I have one. Picked it up last Spring. I paid $500 for it. They are kinda neat. It's at my Dad's in Michigan. Hope to bring it to Ohio soon! I will try to find a picture of mine and post it.

Thanks brian, does yours have a stand?
I dont think this one has a stand as the guy said it's only 4 feet tall..

we'll see once  I see it.

Oh yeah, is anyone selling a "HOLE IN THE HEAD" as I need this machine about as much as that, so might as well buy both!

If it's only 4' tall it's missing the base. There's a guy not to far from me with one for 150 bucks.

Mine has a stand as well. I guess it would be about 6 feet, with stand. They are kind of cool.

I was the one looking for one before.  I believe Tom from Jersey bought one at that time.  I like them better than the U Select Its.

Here's a pic of the stand.

I have seven holes in my head, but I'll take another as long as it doesn't involve a bullet. biggrin

I am going to look at it this morning, but the guy did confirm this one does not have a base..

We'll I have more money to spend in Chicago in a few weeks, didn't buy the Dugreneier.. actually the guy sold it last night to another collector. Turns out he was coming to my city for an antique show and advertised it on Craigslist. I offered to come see/buy it last night at his hotel, but had already sold it to another guy who inquired,, he said it was complete, but alot of rust on the bottom and would need alot of work to make it look good.. so oh well..
thanks for the input from all.

John,

Just curious, what did he sell it for? I know Terry said there was one by him for $150, but missing stand. Was this a fair price too?

Now that would be something now.. fingers crossed...

Brian, he told me he got 350 for it... way too much in my book...

Terry, I'd be interested in that one near your for $150.00 if it's still out there? if it can be put on a pallet I can get it to me for around 200 bucks... Id' be interested..

 I think that was for the base only.
