Here's a Vendo 83 that looks like is in really good shape.  Reasonable price maybe?  Thought I'd post in case anyone was interested or might be in OKC area and can take a look at it.

Looks to be in nice shape, but way overpriced.

What's the going price on these?  Around $1200-1500 for one in this condition?

I guy in North Scottsdale just bought a mint original Vendo 83 (with original key) for $500.  Seller was asking $700.

Vendo 83s are cool machines, but rather large. Most people don't even consider them when purchasing an old soda machine. I would expect to pay $800.00 for one in this condition in my neck of the woods.  $500.00 and I would pick it up to resale later.

But I also have a tendency to pay to much for my machines.

Yeah Bob - I've been in touch with Darin.
He is missing the drum, vend mechanism and other interior parts. It is nice looking, but....
Strange too - he has a Westinghouse cooling system in it. I've never run across a Vendo or other make of machine (other than Westinghouse machines) with a Westinghouse cooling system installed.

So it's not a mint original? Not even close if it's missing all that.
