Title: junior value Post by: JUNIOR on February 11, 2013, 02:46:12 pm Hello All,
I'm looking at buying this Junior for my front porch. I know it is missing the cap catcher & bottle opener. It is for sale for $375. Is this a good deal? Title: Re: junior value Post by: MoonDawg on February 11, 2013, 03:48:26 pm This used to be a highly demanded cooler until they started being reproduced several years ago.
Even so, $350 would be a good price for either one of them. Title: Re: junior value Post by: Eric on February 11, 2013, 07:23:54 pm Make sure the lid isn't rusty.. but that's a good price. .Fun-tronics carries a cap catcher and you can get a opener off ebay.
Title: Re: junior value Post by: Blind1968 on February 11, 2013, 08:50:07 pm Is this machine local to you? IMO If you can get it for that price without having to pay shipping then that's a awesome deal.
Title: Re: junior value Post by: JUNIOR on February 11, 2013, 10:12:21 pm The machine is 150 miles away so I will drive to pick it up. The lid is in decent shape. The inside has a little surface rust but nothing too bad. Thanks everyone for your help!
Title: Re: junior value Post by: Blind1968 on February 11, 2013, 10:46:58 pm I would say grab it quickly!
Title: Re: junior value Post by: jbrooks on February 11, 2013, 11:28:32 pm Grab a button or two while you're there, the white one looks nice
Title: Re: junior value Post by: JUNIOR on February 12, 2013, 08:45:53 am I will definately look at the coke buttons when I am there. I've never looked at buttons before, are the prices decent?
36" red = $200 36" white = $275 48" red = $399 Title: Re: junior value Post by: halehouse on February 12, 2013, 08:49:33 am I'd say they're high on the red buttons due to condition, but the price on the white one doesn't seem bad if it's as decent as it looks in the pic. I assume they would negotiate down a bit. Nice buy on the chest.
Title: Re: junior value Post by: jbrooks on February 12, 2013, 11:18:49 am I agree the white one is well priced based on condition, the others are priced ok but I would rather put that kind of money towards nicer ones.
Title: Re: junior value Post by: Blind1968 on February 12, 2013, 08:03:50 pm You might look at a package deal for the buttons and cooler

Title: Re: junior value Post by: rayg on February 12, 2013, 11:54:47 pm Bundling makes sense, to me because the seller is selling more so they are more willing to give a better price.
That if there is more then one item you really want from the seller. FRANK ISTHE MAN! pickers is a good show Title: Re: junior value Post by: Blind1968 on February 13, 2013, 12:05:06 am Love that show!! :biggrin:

I like the white one but the other two are pretty rough.
Title: Re: junior value Post by: Blind1968 on February 13, 2013, 08:23:24 pm I have not seen too many white button signs around here, are they more common up north?
Title: Re: junior value Post by: JUNIOR on February 13, 2013, 09:48:50 pm The white button looks a little dull. Can I just use rubbing compound on it or will that wear thru the artwork?
Title: Re: junior value Post by: Creighton on February 13, 2013, 10:24:52 pm Search oldgas.com for cleaning.
Creighton Title: Re: junior value Post by: MoonDawg on February 14, 2013, 09:18:09 am Use rubbing compound on all the white at least.
Title: Re: junior value Post by: SIGNGUY on February 14, 2013, 11:14:20 am I thought that as well, looks a little rough, but there are some paint "Cleaning" products out there from Mquires and other car wax manufactures.. I'd go to your local carquest/Napa/advanced auto and seee what they have for paint revitalization.
Title: Re: junior value Post by: JUNIOR on February 18, 2013, 10:46:55 am Hey Everyone, thanks for all the help/posts. I picked up the cooler Saturday and started cleaning it up a little bit. I already found a place for it!!!
Title: Re: junior value Post by: cola62 on February 18, 2013, 10:54:08 am Nice pick-up. Congrats
Title: Re: junior value Post by: jbrooks on February 18, 2013, 11:18:14 am they look cool side by side
Title: Re: junior value Post by: Blind1968 on February 18, 2013, 03:24:29 pm Looking Good!
