Vendo 56 - Electric Coin Mech

[SodaShopNick]

Being told all original, but has anyone seen a Vendo 56 with an electric coin mech.  You can see the crank handle has been covered up so I know it did not come from the factory this way, but just wondering if anyone has seen this before and any thoughts on value.  It does cool.  Pictures coming.

That's not original. It was converted to an electric mech. I'll let someone else chime in on value.

Definitely not original as far as the mech but the rest of the machine yes. I personally love the 56, great little machine that's fairly tough to find. Typically bring less than the 81.

If it was complete as in having the crank handle mech it would get $2200 -$2500. Not having the glass door option also hurts value. Won't be cheap to convert back either, $600 - $700. $1000 -$1200 would be a decent buy as long as your willing to fetch the missing parts and install.

Thanks mygoose101 and brasskey for the input.  Since he is asking $2250 I think I will pass.

I can understand his asking price but you are wise to pass.

If they think that’s original they are clearly not an educated seller!!

I agree.

   He should know better as he also owns an 81.
