Its a Vendo 90. They are good solid working machines. They vend bottles only. If the price is right I would get it. I would say its worth a couple hundred in this economy.

Great machine to have. I have two of this Vendo 90, and they work well. Worth $200.00 to $300.00 tops.

I just bought a V 90  back in January I had JohnieG go along for the ride
 it was missing the shelfs Whick I bought from www.vintagesodaparts.com
know it need to be restored and  put to use in my office  biggrin.

 I've had 4 of these and they are a good working machine  for the garage or
office  or even on the back deck smile.

 So go get this it looks good and remember to do what Signguy said
Make sure they have it pluged in and running so you can see if it gets cold
and make sure it is running well.

Well I just emailed my offer on this machine.  Since it's late at night I probably won't hear back until tomorrow.  We'll see how it goes.  If this does actually go through, whats the best way to transport?  I'm going to pick it up myself on a little trailer I have.  Is it ok to lay the machine down?  Suggestions?

It is fine to lay it down for transport - just don't plug it in for 24 hours - let it sit upright so the compressor can get settled.

Also take the shelves out. Add padding to support the compresor while it is on it's back.

Also, before you lay it down, make sure the compressor is firmly affixed to the bottom of the machine.  Sometimes, those bolts are broken or missing.  And, as Creighton stated, have some padding.

Sending good luck vibes to you that you can score this one!   It's a powerful bug you've been bitten by!!   biggrin  That would be a nice first machine.
