I'm pusuing a seller of this machine...  Seller says it runs great.  Will need to verify how complete it is.  I think they're neat looking machines. Looking for thoughts on value...  I've read the previous posts and all I've been able to find is that finding parts for them is hard.

That is a cool looking machine. I have never seen one like that. It looks like a conversion of a slant shelf selectivend. I don't know what it is worth but I would get it if I were you. But yes parts are hard to find on selectivends and they will be even harder for that machine.

Well - I'm a little nervous about the scarcity of parts but it's unique so I've offered him $75 for the machine as that's the only reference to price I could find... I'll let you all know how it plays out.

Bryan,

Nice looking machine!
I'm curious as the Selectivend 1A I have pictured in the Soda Machines Section is very different...
Does your machine have an ID Tag with manufacturer/model information...?
I didn't read completely; should you purchase the machine, can you research this for me...?

Well Bryan I'm parting out a SV A9 if there is anything
 that you might be looking for let me know.
( there is a photo of it in the classified adds under
 used parts)  
  That is a cool machine that you are looking at
 you have to get that it is way to cool to let go.

Pat  :D

Neat! Very simular to the little red Coke SV I posted some time ago in December? Same delivery chute & coin bezel.. It does look like an early multi-vend conversion of a slant-shelf machine.  :)

Hey Johnie how you feeling?  Haven't heard from you for awhile.

Well we had a mismatched set of expectations...  Seller wanted $750 for the machine.  Told him he should post here directly, or try ebay, in case others here were willing to pay that much.  If anyone else is interested in that price range, let me know and I'll give you the seller's email.

Then I'm guessing this machine is worth more to the seller, than to anyone in this room.

Thought so but it was a neat machine so I thought I'd let you all know it's available.
