That looks like it's in pretty good shape... is there anything left in Arkansas?
You have had a great few days... was this with the rest of you pick up?

I recently paid $1850 for mine...a complete, older restoration v56.  

I value it $2500-3000.

Glad to hear you are branching out into Oklahoma and not Missouri. Hope to meet you and Eric up in Columbia in a couple weeks.  Thats a nice looking 56 - I think its worth at least lunch and a 12 pack of your favorite 12 oz beverage.  Anyone else going to be there?

As it sits, $1200.
Add a glass bottle door, correct repaint on the coin door. $1500.
Check and advertise that the compressor, change giver and coin mech work $1700.
I'd ask $2400. Room to go down and still come out ahead.
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!

I have had one actively for sale for about 3 months.  It's in very similar condition as yours.  I had 2 people both very interested in it but haven't been able to close a deal on the machine.  I have been asking $1700 firm.  I decided to spend a little time and money on the machine to hopefully get what I have invested which is nearly my asking price.  

I paid $1200 cash for mine and traded a complete Ideal 35 with a camel hump coin mechanism....at the time I bought it based on availability...  would have to admit my location isn't the best and I'm about 45 mins from a major interstate.

I think the key with machines at this price as they have to be pretty close to fully functioning...in this economy at that price shouldn't it work?? Of course I didn't see it that way when I bought it.... darn:
