Title: Squirt. Is it worth it?
Post by: Atyia-D on June 26, 2010, 08:38:59 pm
This is very close and I was just wondering if it was worth the price.

Thanks

Can machine. Looks very clean, based on limited pictues. Seller claims  it's functioning.  Inside pics would be nice, coin mech there? 
I'd buy it and leave it as is, if it's as clean as it appears to be.

That is pretty neat. And those can openers make a great place to store the machine key.

If it is working and the inside is as clean as the outside--I think that is a decent price.

He's been selling that machine since at least the 30th of November, when I posted it here.  He's come down a bit on price, but not too much, since it was only $500 if memory serves.  I saw it today again and was hoping one of you Oklahoma guys would jump on it.  I love it and would snap it up if I was in Northern Texas rather than in Southern Texas!   :tounge:  I think it's a sharp looking machine at a good price.  Clean it up, make sure it's working, and enjoy an uncommon machine!

Don't see many squirt machines. Looks really cool.

I'd buy it if it were close by.

Good luck
