Title: Anyone interested in a $200 VMC 81 7-UP machine?
Post by: COREY on April 16, 2011, 07:30:52 pm
I found a VMC 81 7-up machine yesterday on Craigslist if anyone might be interested in it. A little too far for me to mess with. Looks to be in decent shape. Mainly the cabinet and front door. I fugured the front door would be worth that.

      If it's a roundtop 7up 81 cabinet, I will buy it and have it picked up no matter what state it's in.
      Thanks for posting

I think half the people on this website would like to have a 7up 81, including me. Distance is not an issue.

That's what I thought. Looks like a generic machine

what a rip! Wish these people would make up their mind before listing an Item. Might still be worth it if you were close. 2hr drive and $4.00 a gallon for gas makes it another $100 for me plus interior parts of about $700. $1300 for an un-restored and incomplete generic machine is no bargain. I think he's also selling some cheap land in Florida too.

Hey guys! Sorry for the "no response" on this ad, but I have been battling  strep throat and a stomach virus for the past couple of days. I would have posted the web address when I posted the ad on here, but I'm technically challenged when it comes to computers. Glad someone else found it but sorry it didn't pan out for anybody. Never heard of anyone going up in price. Sounds like a scam. Still love this site and all the help that comes from it. Anyone know how to get in touch with "johnieG"? I posted a question about removing the inner liner of an airline cooler and someone said he could help? Thanks again!!
