This is a great deal for someone, A friend of mine has a garage full of machines, 12 in all He wants $1000.00 for all and you pick them up. some are parts machines but there are alot that are good machines. Email me at memorylane@myactv.net for alot more photos. Call him if anyone is interested, he just wants them out of his garage 1-717-658-5547 ask for Pooch. He is 30min. from Carlisle, PA. and 45Min. from Hershey. Anyone going to either show, would be very close. There are also several box's of shelves and faces.

That doesn't make a lot of sense taking it to the scrap yard unless he gets $700. I have scraped several empty shells of machines and gotten between $10 and $15 for the metal. They also require that the cooling system be removed. Why doesn't he sell them on ebay. Even in a package deal on ebay they will sell for more than he will get in scrap. Why wouldn't he or even you take them and sell them for parts. You would get 10 X the value for them in parts. I just can't understand why he would take these to the scrap yard and destroy good machines unless he gets such a large amount of money for them. They obviously are not high value machines but still are not worth destroying.

A common practice around here is classic scrap yards for cars run ads in the papers 100+ cars from estate all to be sold by such and such date or they will be crushed. You call they want $1500+ each for the cars and on such and such date you drive by and guess what the cars are still there, and no crusher! Im not saying this is whats going on here, But why would you want $1,000.00 for machines and say they are going to scrap if they dont sell. I just junked 7 machines today, two of them very large squaretops. I walked out of there with $72.00.

Wish I could help, but it would probably cost me several thousand in freight and duty to have them shipped to canada.

Its ok to scrap junk machines but most of those machines have a lot of usable parts. I see a square top 81 with a good RT bottle door, a 117 with a ton of V56 shelves, and so on. There is a lot of money in parts there. Why scrap good machines.
