Nice! Right up my alley! I am going to see what she might want for them. Would look good with the cup machines I have.

Just wondering but with that hot food machine from the ID tag it looks like it might have a refrigeration system in it. If so would they have just reversed it having the evaporator down below and the condenser in the cabinent to make it warm or is it just heating elements?

No word from the seller yet. Maybe they sold them?

Well, I heard from the seller. They want $800 for the pair. Way too much for these machines. They might be cool, but no way are they worth that.

I went and looked at these today. One is a can soup warmer and the other a juice drink. She would not go below $250 for each one. Way too much money! These are 70's machines. Not worth more than $100 per machine. They don't have keys for them and one runs and one does not. The warm one, does not work. I am passing. They also put them on Ebay, but reserve of $800. REALLY? Really, come on. They think they got gold or something. They have cheap coin mechs and are basically small refrigerators that are machines.

 Hello, All

   Just To Fill in Everyone in on this story . I guess After a Member here Viewed the Machines & Passed on them.   On or around 14June I received an E-mail From the Seller (Sandy )  to My Other E-mail Address ! Which i did not Check Untill 16or17 . Said She wanted to Know If I was Still Interested in these Machines . I Contacted her and said Sure IF the Price was right . I then Made Arangeents to Look at the Machines a Couple Day Later . Met with Sandy & Heard a Story from her abought Trying to Sell the Machines .I said It Did'nt Matter what was said I was Here to Deal . She Also Had 2 70s Jukes I looked At & Explained I did Not Know Anything abouth Jukes Execpt that Most Collectors Are Looking For the Ones You Can View The records change on .
We aggreed on a Price  Under $250 for the Pair . I Got them Home and Started Cleaning Them .There Pretty Cool !!! All of the Heat & Cooling System are located in the bottom Quarter & Can be disambled in 5 Minuts !! So In the Field they (Service Personal ) Would Not need to Do much trouble Shooting .Just Swap ot the system and Work on it at the shop . After Clean them & Checking&Cleaning the Wires BOTH ! The Machines Work Great !!!! They Vend Find ( Vienna Sausage & Beannie Wennies in Hot Food Nice & Warm  ) And I still have to Find a Couple Juices Yet but It Cools Great !!! New Locks Installed Batt-Bing Done !!!!! All Though I can't change the Prices So I'll allways Lose Money . But I like them !!! Its the Odd & Diffirent Machines I like  :smile:

Now You Know the Rest Of the Story

Leonard,

Do you have any idea how old they are? Is there any info in the machine?


Title: Re: A pair of interesting machines...
Post by: loman4ec on July 20, 2010, 09:57:01 pm
These looked familiar and I went into an old file from back before I moved to asia. I went to an old vending company and found these machines. They also had several Stoners next to these. This company closed in the 70's so these are at least from the 70's at the latest. these were found in indiana. I am going to go back and see if these are still there but I doubt they are?????

I have a totally gutted  Juice machine,  It cooled the last time plugged it in.
I used it as "beer" cooler is all.

Bring me a 12 pack of beer and you can have it ! Come get it only. 

2 locks, 1 key.  I don't need it. In Columbus OH 43204.
