Title: Westinghouse 44
Post by: Jonathan816 on February 10, 2013, 10:19:06 pm
Just got this delivered to my house... was wondering what it's worth in current condition.  If it was pepsi I'd consider keeping it because it's a great size.
Mechanical stack works - missing coin mech.
see pictures for condition... no serious rust where it needs repair.. just a good blasting
has cap and coin catchers..

machine doesn't cool..and is missing lock(current locks with a hex key) and missing bottle cap remover.

The mech is what makes that machine worth $$. I bought 4 of them a few months ago, Pulled the cooling units out, and stacks and scrapped the rest. I hauled the two worst stacks off for scrap, Sold one and have been sitting on the other with zero interest in it.

$100-150

I can buy one right now for $250 but it is missing half the coin mech and it has been for sale for 5-6 years.

Yes, I saw the last stacks sold for about $225 with shipping.    I will post the whole machine and see what I can get if anything.  If I could get $150 picked up I'd be happy...
