I have an opportunity to purchase a complete u select candy machine. Needs to be restored but looks complete. I have never owned one so not sure what they are worth. Do not want to insult the guy but not sure what a fair offer would be. Anyone out there own one of these ? What is a fair? offer?

Well, Most will say I overpaid, but I bought my round top one for $550 with the base. The square top ones I have seen for $100-150 and didn't buy them. The proof is in the price of a restored one, the round top ones I have seen are about $1000 more in the asking prices.

I picked up my round top with the base for $400 and considered it a good deal.  happydrinkers

I love the U Select machines. Have managed to acquire two. Very versatile.

I think your right on the money at $350 to $450 with a stand. Keep in mind the model with the script at the top is more desireable than the plate.
