Of course now I just found this one too. I swear these things never pop up in this area and now there are two. Trying to get ahold of the seller on this one to see how much they want for it. http://waco.craigslist.org/atq/3201123565.html |

Id rather have the one in Waco but from looking at the stuff in the background Id say its at an Antique store. I looked up antique stores in Crawford and think I got it narrowed down to the one its at. That being said if its in an Antique store they are probably going to want top dollar for it.

Well I was right on the money. She said she had it appraised at
$4400 so she wants $3000 for it. She was a nice old lady tho.

Oh its sounding real good right about now. Like I said these never seem to pop up around here in the Austin area at all but im also in no hurry to buy one. I want one real bad but Im am also willing to wait for the right deal. Granted im not wanting it for free but I sure dont think she will get $3000 for it anytime soon. If anyone sees a stoner come up in Texas please let me know. Thats the last thing I want to add to my gameroom.

Trust me, outside of Michigan area, nothing ever seems to pop up around you!! There have been a couple of Juniors pop up in Texas that I have seen, but you are going to pay for it and less than $550 is unlikely for any stoners that are presentable.

Yeah. we all said that. Oh I know that saying all to well. Im also an arcade collector and I thought Id only have one or two. Before I knew it I had 20 but I got smart and sold off most of them. Now Im down to 5 and thats all I need for now. They are also some valuable machines so thats why they stayed. Now I just need to add a stoner and im good to go. |

I guess watching an episode of Pawn Stars counts as an appraisal

Anyone with a legitimate access to auction records for stoner candy machines, normally a paid service..... Appraisals are normally for insurance, auction records would include the high end -restored machines to the basket machines and finding a middle ground and is likely to have the theaters mixed in since stoners do not sell every day. The high end is $7-8000, Low end is $7-800. So if you were insuring it to be replaced only using a retail source say within 30 days from today, $4400 would not be unreasonable. You would not take us all wanting them for $300 or less off craigs list and jumping to get them. Remember, how much it is worth is not how much you would pay, I know, I know... Its always too much. I wish I could find machines all day, every day for what the people in here think they are worth. If you are selling for 30% of what they sell for at auction or ebay, or 20% of what they are asking for retail, feel free to PM me. |

Well I won a bunch of money playing poker last night so I thought Id get ahold of the guy in San Antonio and see if I could get him down on price a bit. I was able to and was getting ready to head out for the 2 hour drive when I sent him one last txt to ask if was fully functional and if he had the keys. He has no keys for it and doesnt even know if it works cause hes never had it opened. Needless to say our deal went south. Thought I was actually going to own a Stoner finally. Damn!!!!!

It has all of the pulls, so it should be in there. It may be missing the coin mech, but will work as free vend easily without it. I say go take a look and use that as a reason to get it cheaper!! It is still a decent looking machine, and the paint job will cost you at least half of the asking price.

I would but its a two hour drive both ways and I dont want to go all that way and not be able to get it any cheaper than the deal we had made. If I could at least have been able to see the insides then it would be a different story. Dont want to take the chance of getting it opened only to find out there is alot mising. Been down that road a couple of times and got burned bad.
