Bubba
Vintage-Air... Not sure whats going on, but you need to lighten up.. Good for you selling a machine for soo much money. Every area is different and people get what they can get. Stop attacking people or you won't be posting anymore. I already cleaned up one of your threads, I'm not going to clean up another one.

I bought a very restorable 81D just about 1 year ago for $1500. Sounds like your fishing reel is spinning fast?

Also are these machines able to be switched to "free vend" without the coin mech so I can at least use the machine for a while?


      Yes it can be set at freeplay, you will have to take off the bottle stack and remove a few parts though, easily reversed.

Lighten up? are you serious? I didn't know my comment was a heavy one. I know John and have talked with him in person about a few machines. The only way you can make money on these machines, are to buy em' right. That's all he's doing and i even gave him props! Lighten up? as John Stossel would say.....give me a break!

This needed to be in private message.

Praise in public and criticize in private. 

I enjoy this site because of the value on informatition here and lack of cry babies like oldgas.com.  Lets keep it that way.

I did not find Vintage Air's comment offensive. He was not attacking anyone.

In my area, there's no complete 81D for under $2K - in any shape. And I've been looking! Congrats to those that do find them for cheap but i think it's more out of the norm.

One question Jeff....You sold them for that much, BUT what did you pay for the machines?
I don't think the $1500 81D dollar days are gone....as stated earlier, I bought (at public auction) an 81D in January 2011 for $1300 hammer price (plus fees). That is not that long ago! I would not display it in my home, but it is solid.
Right now everyone has big heads as you say, but the shows will get cancelled and people will go back to being their ignorant selves. And as Glen said, the grading system has to come into play. A unrestored presentable 81D has brought $2k+ for the past 10 years, but the 81D that needs restored won't. I am not talking about the rust bucket boat anchor 81 either.....I talking solid machine that is just not presentable.
My six cents....
