Halehouse...you would be in heaven in my area right now!  There are at least 4 Westy 60 or 78 Select-o-matic dial machines for sale, and most are $300-$400 in nice working order.  I wouldn't mind a 60 dial machine, but there are too many others I want ahead in line!

What kills me is that the machines pictured aren't even the ones for sale!
They are buried in a storage shed..Your paying an extra $2700 for labor involved digging them out!

He is one of the many people out there driving up the prices on vintage soda machines, making it more difficult for the enthusist to buy into the game. People see his ad and think that there stuff is also valuable. Then when guys like us try to explain the real value of the item they think we are trying to rip them off. But thanks to the internet and this forum I am a much more patient collector and restorer and the prices I am paying is more reasonable.

Thank to all for all of the helpful info.
