Oh my!  :jawdrop:

If these things sell, the direction our hobby is headed will be clear.  :down:

On the other hand, if someone is looking for restored V30 that Rick didn't touch, I'll make you deal for about half that price!  :biggrin:

I think the extra $3000 is for the love he put into his machine.... oh, and don't forget his autograph too! He's my hero!   :help:

Neither of those compressor units look original based on my V-39?  Maybe mine is worth more than I thought!

Never heard of U-12?
They say the coin mechanism was restored, but it doesn't appear to be.
I'd be very surprised if it sells.

The inside liner, door liner, drum, coin mech and coin box are hammertoned. I am not saying anything against hammertone as that is what I use but I charge less than half of what he is asking.

I don't get it. Why hammertone the drum? I always polished them and then they look like chrome.

On another note; Rick looks like Spigolli from Fast Times at Ridgemount High there

Maybe we should buy one and then take it to the Pawn Stars to see what it is worth!?!?!?  That would be interesting. :biggrin: 8) :laugh:
