Title: Vendo 56 round top Post by: bcharlton on September 14, 2011, 03:28:58 pm Great unrestored condition complete. Guy wants $2000
Sounds a little high Any thoughs? Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: Kilroy on September 14, 2011, 03:37:39 pm I sold one with a belt line rust, unrestored but complete, and cooling 2-3 yrs ago for $1200
Your milage may vary. Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: BONOVOX on September 14, 2011, 04:00:17 pm Again, not sure on the value of the 56's... but if it's the "perfect " machine for you, and you can afford the 2k, then why wait? Just get it! Sure, you may find a cheaper one, a better one, etc... but when? and all those are just MAYBE....
LIFE IS SHORT my friend.... if you have the $$ and are ok with it, and are NOT planning on flipping it, then pounce when you can, cause these machines are NOT made anymore.. and enjoy them for as long as we are on this earth! :smile: I think this is my 100th post too! :happydrinkers: Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: SIGNGUY on September 14, 2011, 04:58:24 pm The 56 is is a neat little machine and less seldom seen than the 81's , and I agree with the previous statment.. if it's for you personally, you have the money and it's close by, then I'd buy it.. it's not a crazy price.. sure one may pop up for 1600-1800, but who knows? no one has the magic soda machine Crystal Ball. (or do they) oh yeah Rod has one I think! :biggrin:
Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: bcharlton on September 14, 2011, 06:55:08 pm Thanks for the help. I have purchased 20 round top soda machines in the last 12 years and never a 56. I thought the going rate in this economy was around $1500.
Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: briandr1 on September 14, 2011, 07:44:43 pm I would love to own a 56 in my opp its the best one from the 50's i agree if you want it and can afford it grab it.
Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: coke_and_stuff on September 14, 2011, 07:46:08 pm IMHO thats a $1,200-$1,500 machine TOPS but 56s pop up around here more than others. there was one on Little Rock Craigslist for $1,500 a few weeks back.

Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: flippa on September 14, 2011, 11:18:35 pm How long has it been for sale?
Cash talks. Decide what you are willing to pay for it, go look at it again with a pocket full & see what he will take for it. Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: Slapshot42 on September 15, 2011, 02:39:09 am Indeed Cocacolaman! Living proof of that for sure. I think one of them was priced at$ 2 ,200.00?
Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: Creighton on September 16, 2011, 05:39:55 pm Agree with Joey 1500. Hard to tell from the pic but good chrome/paint and complete no rust 2K isn't that bad. Easy to convert to glass door. If you get it and need any help, let me know.
Creighton Title: Re: Vendo 56 round top Post by: RC kid on September 16, 2011, 08:25:45 pm This is one of the better machines to have. And location is one of the major factors when purchasing a soda machine. $2,000.00 may not be a bad price if this is the machine you are looking for. And if it were priced at $1500.00 it would have already sold.
Good luck |
