Not sure what it is, or if it's worth it. A little far for me, and not what I was looking for but if anyone's in WA it may be worth it, I'm sure it won't sell at that price though.

Is that a Stoner jr.?? Something doesn't look right!
What is up with the unevenly spaced pull knobs?

That machine is called a "U-Need-A Merchandiser".. it essentially operates just like a stoner, 5 selection machine. I had one just like it a year or so ago, missing base, but sold it to someone who was restoring another and needed mine for parts.
I am actually interested in this machine and have emailed the seller for more pics...
attached are more photos of my unrestored unit.

Well good luck, hopefully you'll get it. I really liked it, since it was very similar to a JR, but way too far for me and a little more then I wanted to spend. I'm glad someone on here might get it.

I really like the pulls! do you turn them as opposed to pulling??

Yes, they are Turn knobs, vs pulls like on a stoner.. you turn them after money is deposited to get your treats!.
The coke sticker is just a sticker or magnet on it.. I've talked to the seller and he will come down in price a bit, but will not assist in packaging it in any way for my shipper to get it..

not sure what'll I'll do here..

Call NAVL or a pack and ship business.

I don't want it that bad... It'll cost me as much as the machine to use one of those services...
Pack and ship places are a rip off in my opionion, but of course that comes from a guy who packages all his own stuff , and NAVL.. hah... they quoted me 575.00 C'mon..

I actually have a better shipper and it'll only cost me 219 to my door, but it needs to be crated..

Oh well,, I just tore down my other stoner jr tonight, so thinking I'll just put the money into that and give it a killer restoration and enjoy the 2 stoners  I have..

the guy did say he'd do $600 if anyone is interested... good luck!
