Average condition: $950 Fully restored $1900 Without stand (which I don't see) minus $300 The guys (SMC panel of experts) will tell you the book is only to be used as a guide, supply and demand is what it's all about... If embossed it is vary rare, but was painted yellow with bright blue lettering. Somebody else may give you info on the shape yours is in, hope this helps. Good luck Title: Re: vendorlator 27 pepsi whats value HELP please check pics Post by: collecture on September 27, 2007, 04:41:46 pm Hinges are an odd part to be missing!
Market is soft right now and I do not think you would get $950 for it - more like $600+ or so depending on how bad the rust is and what else might be missing. If you part this out, I will buy your dolly kit (the criss-cross handle and wheels on the back). OR If you are just going to sell it, think about selling me the wheel and dolly kit beforehand. I don't think it would adversely affect the price you get. I'll pay a fair price. Dave-the stand is the bottom half, which is the "Empty Bottle" compartment. The Coke version of this machine is aluminum and the Pepsi version is steel. I believe some aluminum Pepsi 27's have been found too. Coke usually had the pipe stand.
