Well, I JUST got back from purchasing 3 machines from him.
I was in negotiations with him for the past couple of weeks, sorting a few things out, I drove the 5.5 hrs to his place, and I am now the PROUD owner of a Dr Pepper VMC 81, and.............................. A VMC RC 81!
) (I aslo took his Vendo 81 coke, as it was too mint of an original to pass on)
The guy (I'll withold his name) was an ABSOLUTE pleasure to deal with, as I had MANY questions over the past week, and he took the time to answer them all, send me ANY pics that I requested, and, to top it all off, I had no plans on buying the Vendo 81, so I only brought the $ that was agreed on for the 2 machines, and he said I could take the 81, AND MAIL HIM A CHEQUE! I've met some great people in my time, and I'm a great person too lol, but the world needs more people like this guy, to trust me, a stranger.! Im sending him a cheque this week
)
As well, before purchasing the RC, I wanted to peel the back off to ensure that it was a real RC, and he insisted we do that, and we did,,,........... and we both saw a PERFECT inside of a RC 81, a sight that not many people Im sure have seen
)
He had other great machines, like the Pepsi 81, but I already have the full blue version, as well as a great 7up 81, but I didnt pull the trigger on that one, as Im waiting for a original white one, as it would complete my set with all original / original looking machines.
I'll post a pic real quick, others to follow maybe in the pre60's section tomorow
)
Im gonna sleep well 2nite with RC Colas dancing over my head :O)
Oh, and his 81c.... IS THE REAL DEAL.. Pics to follow of that as well
