Title: the world is crazy
Post by: cohammer on September 01, 2013, 10:57:04 am
I went to pick up a sign I had bought yesterday and the lady at the antique store said if I collected machines she knew someone who is getting rid of one. Gave me his number and I called him and he was about to take it to the scrap yard because he was cooking out for labor day and just wanted a little cash. cools and works great glad I saved it.

Isn't the Pepsi sign  people seem to be looking for  on  Choice-Vends, maybe  Lacrosse? I always get my off brands mixed up
 If you decide to take it back to  Coke,  don't toss the sign

Yes that is the machine I wondered about the sign on front, I wish he would have taken scrap price for it but it's funny when some body finds out they have something you want the price goes up. but I did get it for $250 I was happy with that.
