Title: VMC 44 vs. vendo 44 Post by: stburger on August 26, 2011, 06:38:21 pm What is the differance in these 2 machines. Is one more valuable than the other
Title: Re: VMC 44 vs. vendo 44 Post by: MoonDawg on August 26, 2011, 06:44:59 pm The only difference is the chrome coin entry plate on the Vendo and for this reason only it is MUCH more sought after than it's twin sister the VMC 44.
I have always wondered why the parts guys don't try and reproduce a similar bezel that would brighten up the VMC. Title: Re: VMC 44 vs. vendo 44 Post by: collecture on August 26, 2011, 07:14:29 pm Coin mechs are different as well. The V-44 liner is plastic and the VMC-44 liner is stamped out of metal. The rear shaft on the VMC-44 mech is longer than the V-44 mech because they could mold the plastic deeper than they could stamp the metal.

Good info Tom , I too never knew the liner differences and coin mech... but then again have never had a VMC one?... thanks for sharing. boy, I feel like I learned something today! :biggrin: Title: Re: VMC 44 vs. vendo 44 Post by: collecture on August 29, 2011, 10:30:33 am The VMC-88 mech is the same as the VMC-44 mech for the same reason - metal liner.
