Title: Atlas value
Post by: on September 08, 2004, 12:08:29 am
My wife gave me an Atlas Junior Electric for my birthday (I think it's as old as me).  We cleaned it up and had it serviced and it works great.  Any idea what it might be worth?  Just curious because it's not for sale, however my wife is curious if she paid to much.  At 10 cents a pop or adult beverage it will take awile to pay for itself!

Hi & Welcome!, the value of your Atlas junior slider, will depend on what condition it's in, assuming that it's in working order, & to a smaller degree, what soda brand/flavor is on the machine, ( embossed machines are worth more than painted "generic" machines) but an Atlas junior/slider isn't all that common up around here in Michigan, (we tend to get mostly Ideals & Glascos)so I'll just quote from the book with a range of aprox. $250.00 in average condition, complete & working, they list a fully restored machine at aprox. $950.00
Please feel free to post a picture! After all that's what this sites all about, Luv thoses machines!

PS, so what flavor is your machine? I've seen these only as Dr. Pepper machines myself.
