Title: Early 60's 7-up vending machine
Post by: on October 07, 2002, 03:29:48 pm
There is a 7UP Vending Machine up for auction and wanted to know if you know the right $$$ for that machine?  Made by Vendorlator model number VF A56 F-B?  Whats the history about this machine?  Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.. ~KMy Webpage

Kathy,

Do you know if the machine is complete and functioning properly?
Without some information, it's difficult assume what the machine might sell for...  I would estimate that if everything is there and in working order a range between $0 - $350 would be great. Anything in the $400 - $600 range and I'd do a little homework to be sure things are as they seem...

This machine works, few dents, no cracks on plastic (with 7UP logo on top of the machine). Has key and is completed. Decal is in good shape but not a perfect. 6oz to 10oz bottles will fit in.

Well I've paid from $50.00 for a simular model VF56(Pepsi, non-lightup) to around $250 for a light up VF56F(Faygo) model Both in working order & complete. I guess you could start from there, again depend's on the condition, brand-name (7up's cool) size (smaller machines' are more desirable than bigger machines')& consider if you have to have it shipped it could double the cost of the machine unless you able to drive and go get it. are you going to do the auction? or are you a bidder? you could acution it here at this site!
