The holy grail, huh... Well, we all have a idea of what that might be but my Royal crown VMC 81 sold for $9500. To me, that IS the holy grail of soda machines.

I would agree on the RC 81. Light Up Pepsi will always be a single vend machine.

 How about a Vendo 83 with a Selectavend conversion - in vintage condition.  This looks more like a bookend.

If it's "The Holy Grail" do we need to bring him a shrubbery?

Maybe a Holy Hand Grenade? biggrin


Love that Movie!

Sellers name is Jim.  He called me back and we talked for a while. Nice older guy...knows what he has.

He has 2 of them (Bookends as he calls them). One is a 1952, the other a 1953.  They are slightly different according to Jim.

He wants 3k for each of them.  I said they go for around 2k in the condition they are in.

He said then he'll wait and drag them to Chicago in Nov and get 3k.
  
After all, they are the Holy Grail.



 Did you tell him, "Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive soda machine power just because some watery tart threw a Jacobs Pepsi 56 at you."

I am a big Python fan and could quote this movie for hours!  After all, there are some who call me... Tim. biggrin Cool laugh
