Not sure if many of you have ever used Etsy, I sell my lamps on there but you can pretty much sell any vintage or handmade item.  What I have found a lot of is people selling Coke/Soda/Vending/Signs/Etc. on there.  Just a heads up but you never know what you'll come across.  There's a lot of other junk to weed through, but I've found some good stuff over time.

Some examples:

Westy Jr.: https://www.etsy.com/listing/186993235/vintage-1930s40s-coca-cola-cooler-and

Adams Gum Machine: https://www.etsy.com/listing/193120012/1930s-adams-chewing-gum-one-cent-vending

V-39 (Overpriced IMO): https://www.etsy.com/listing/162824931/vintage-1950s-working-coca-cola-vending

Slug rejectors (or 'robot parts'): https://www.etsy.com/listing/79633777/2-vintage-metal-findings-robot-supplies

I actually bought the attached off the guy selling the Adams. On craigslist not etsy.

Guess he's "gone legit" as some of his Craigslist ads would say "found this cleaning out a dead man's home"

Very cool trade simulator!  Do the reels spell out beer as it looks?

Yes. First reel is numbered. The other four have b-e-e-r plus some sayings about drinking. If you spelt "beer" the first reel would tell you the number of free ones you won.

Made by cardinal. Pop up on eBay from time to time.

Etsy has some pretty neat stuff on there sometimes. I've bought a few machinist tools on there in good shape for a low price mostly because the seller did not know what they were.
