Title: Finally Got A Swami Post by: jbrooks on November 06, 2011, 04:48:36 pm After watching these on ebay and looking around for a good deal on one of these I stumbled across this one at a place I went to buy some gas related signs. This one is pretty good shape minus the dust. The second vending machine was an impulse purchase but its kinda cool
Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: Ken R on November 06, 2011, 06:02:06 pm How funny. We just had one sell at the auction a couple weeks ago. It didn't have a key though.
Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: jbrooks on November 06, 2011, 07:59:08 pm Yeah, these Swamis are so cool, even my wife almost likes it, noone, not even the Swami himself could have predicted that

Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: Ken R on November 07, 2011, 01:07:54 am Too funny. I wish I'd been able to get the one we sold, but it didn't have the key and it had a little bit of rust on it. I figured one would come along again in better condition that I could get if inclined to do so. Congrats on finding one and double-congrats on the Mrs. liking it too!!
Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: jbrooks on November 07, 2011, 01:04:05 pm thanks Ken, did anyone see the lot that sold on ebay. here is the link, i counted there are 22 of them but the description only says "10 of them" wonder if someone paid almost a thousand dollars and then realized they werent getting everything in the picture

Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: jbrooks on November 08, 2011, 12:44:02 am question for the experts. I am better at finding this stuff than working on it. I think the key may be rusted in the lock and it wont turn. Should I spray some WD 40 around the key and let it leak down into the lock? Can this damage anything? Also was this a penny or nickel machine, I wnat to try it out but dont want to jam the wrong size coin in there. Thanks for any help you can provide
Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: davethebirdman on November 08, 2011, 03:08:35 am You bet he was happy with them... Look at the buyers feedback he sold just one for $560.00... Even with ten he'll make a killing. Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: Cokemachinesandmore on November 08, 2011, 08:09:02 am those were penny machines
Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: Kilroy on November 08, 2011, 08:11:54 am Is anyone repopping the fortune cards?
Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: jbrooks on November 08, 2011, 10:12:36 am I think this one is just a yes or no one. It says on it think of a yes or no question and then deposit your coin for the answer
Title: Re: Finally Got A Swami Post by: davethebirdman on November 08, 2011, 02:16:14 pm Yeap there is a seller on ebay that re-makes the cards. |
