Were you the only one selling soda machines? Did you sell any of them? Title: Re: Mich Gas & Petro & Advertising swapmeet Post by: Pat Pixley on May 22, 2011, 08:58:11 pm sold the glasso Slider and sold my candy machine did not sell that darn Cornelius alot of people looking but no takers, over all I did well on those. Tim sold a stoner Cigarette machine which was a hot item , and then put out a stoner candy machine a lot people looked including Ray :smile: but no takers on that and I think he did well. John got there late and did not sell a machine , but went through a lot of business cards.

Thanks for securing the booth space. It was good to see Ray, Johnie and Johnie's son AJ. I think that show would be worth the return trip. The National Cigarette Machine got a lot of looks and a buyer as did all of the machines that we had there. As much as I hate to say it, a lot of the people were mentioning that "I saw that machine on American Restoration" so I guess Resto-Rick isn't bad for business. I am sure that Ray and I will swing a deal on the Stoner soon. A lot of neat stuff on display and for sale at the event and it was an added treat to see so many nice Model A's. :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: Mich Gas & Petro & Advertising swapmeet Post by: rayg on May 22, 2011, 10:06:43 pm Hi Pat,
It was a a good time hanging out with everyone. This show seems allot better then last year, I think the weather had allot to do with that. I always learn allot from you guys. Also, I'm man enough to say you guys where right I should have taken the Stoner home at the time :down:......... My friend finally came through for me and will let me use his pole barn to paint and work on it and the "war department" gave their OK as well after I showed some pics on how it will looked painted. Tim, I sent you an email. Ray |
