Title: Vendo 92-1
Post by: Ken R on August 31, 2011, 09:29:04 am
What do you guys think about this one?  Is it worth it?  How's the collectability on this machine?  Thanks.

      Too big, hard to work on and even harder to resell.
I would stick with the slant shelf gravity feed machines.

You'd be better off with a Westinghouse MD-78 model, it's the same size, looks about the same, but it will vend 6-flavors of bottle or cans...this one is about the same size as a Vendo V-90, and only vends 1-flavor of course...

Most of have been there. Get bitten byt the collecting bug, and the thrill of the hunt go out and buy a machine because it's cool, then realize it's a fun fund sucking boat anchor.  Ultimately,  you like a machine by all means go for it, but  contrary to what the sellers on Craig's list think, not all old things are worth $$

Totally understand that one!  Like the guy that tries to sell a 2000 Lincoln Penny for a million bucks because it has Lincoln's portrait on it!  It's worth a penny!  Haha.  Thanks again.
