National Candy Machine Value

[Sodak Bob]

I know this has came up before - but what is a 10 pull ( 9 candy and 1 gum) machine worth?    It looks to be in good original condition - the guy has 3 of them. Looks heavy ?  Any Help is appreciated. Shipping is not a problem as I am picking up a slider in the same town...

I had 3... these weigh a ton someone said 300lbs! But I like them
Josh posted about one...
$100-150 is what I paid on adverage on the 3 ... but I see these going up as the
Stoners disapear....  they're wide but yet real narrow against the wall maybe 18"?....
Love the color mint green.. that looks to have the etched mirror too... Nice machine

The other two machines are off-white but in about the same shape. They have the etched glass and he wants $150 for all three.

Bob... you are going to grab them aren't you???

There was a guy trying to sell one at the jukebox show I was at on Sunday... Wanted £2500.

About $4000 for it...

As I have said before I like these old National 510 machines.  As far as being really heavy, really don't know what they weight, but they are probably about the same as Stoner's.  Stoners have metal shelves, 510s are plastic, Stoners were taller, 510s are wider. I have transport these by myself, sliding them on their sides into a van, not hard and I am not a big guy (5-6, 150 lbs)

If they are still working 5-10 machines, they should a nickel payout tube.  Some I think were made using an ACMR, all coins mechanical recoder, my book shows they should not pay out tube on those.

They green one is the original color.

I would grab them for that price, if you like mid to late 50's machines.
