Yes, but they are not made anymore so supply and demand takes over.

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |

I think that is too high also. I have noticed these starting to go up in price but more in the 100 dollar range.

As Moondawg mentioned, there was a limited run of them and unless they do another run, the supply/demand argument is valid. I was fortunate to find one on ebay about a year ago for about $150, which is close to the new price for it. I use it and a couple of other repros for rod runs and picnics.
At $200 plus shipping, how bad do you want one?

I also think it's pretty high. I'm If someone is willing to spend that much on a repro, they'd be better off waiting and buying a nice original.

I like it ,but dont' like the blue insides...    actually it's pretty cool, even for a fantasy peice (as originals were not available). if your a picnic cooler collector,, then this would be the one to have... IMO.. |

Very cool and yes if your a collector and that the one you needed then yes you had better grab it. and for the Blue i think it is a blue plastic film to protect the inside. like a sheet of stainless steel  |

FYI, I emailed the company and asked if they would ever make more, this is the response I got.........Not a yes or a no At this time we are not in production. Later this year the CEO will advise whether or not he will produce the picnic coolers again. I will keep your info and advise as soon as we have confirmation from the CEO of product availability.
Thank you and have a great day,
