More info:

Apparently the person selling this is doing it for a recently widowed lady whos husband left a lot of "projects".  This was found in a back barn and is the only soda vending machine he had.  He said there are 20+ slot machines, pinball machine, pool table and other collectables.

Said the door is duct taped closed but the unit is complete with little rust since they are in the desert.

Heck yes I'd get it!  If my family was still down in San Diego, I'd be figuring out a way to score my first Pepsi machine!  Go for it!

When I'm out there this fall for 3 months, I'll have to check out all your great finds if you are up for visitors!

Yep, $300 is great for a pepsi machine. I'd buy it. Does the guy have any Icecream or milk machines?

       I think it's a nice machine, you should probably buy it!

       But if the wife wants you to wait for a smaller machine, or if your just not into it yet
I'm in Southern Calif. and I would also be interested.
