I just purchased a V56 machine off ebay the other day from NONE other than the Long Lost Markito...
I am going to pick it up on Friday.. Looks as if he is clearing out his collection and maybe getting out of the hobby... I'll get more details on Friday when I see him...
Just thought I'd pass that along to everyone who knew him here.

Make sure when you go to pick it up, you put something on top of the machine as you look it over!

If memory serves me, he has a pretty nice, all-red unrestored Vendo 110 amongst other things.

That is to bad that he may be getting out of the hobby   down
 It is good that you heard from him

 Let him know we still need him to stop in from time to time.
 so he can keep a eye on our machines ,make sure  were not putting
 thing on top of them  laugh .

I'm meeting up with him at 9:30am tomorrow morning.. he still has the Vendo 110 and says that is the last thing he'll get rid of if he has to... He has sold alot on Ebay recently... I think cleaning out a storage garage, as that is where I'm meeting him.. he had a real nice shuffle bowler that he didn't know if it worked or not.. .but it sold for $203.00!!! I missed putting my bid in! darn
I'll pass all these comments onto him and ask him to check in with us.!

Photos of machine tomorrow..
