Why are these always missing the drums?

I've seen them sell from 300.00 up to 500.00 to give you an idea.

         Besides the drum, it is missing most of the rollers and probably the indexing mechanism.

         The cabinet and stand are quite collectible but it will be easier to find a whole parts machine like a 33, than to find a drum alone.

Just a guess - I think the drum is going to run you something in the area of $400-$500.  I don't think any of the major parts suppliers has them available as a new part.  

For the machine missing the drum, and a lot of the supporting 'guts'... if the compressor and coin mech are present, I'd say maybe $400-ish.  

If you are not looking for a functional machine, it looks nice as a display piece.  Otherwise, I suspect finding a replacement drum and rollers will be a significant challenge.

Hey,,thanks for the info. Had done a little history check on Ebay and the 400 to 500 range for drum alone is right on. I may offer him 300 and see what he says. Thanks again for the information folks. Appreciate it.

If you do get it, I know a guy who would gladly trade you all the parts you need including the drum in exchange for the pipe stand  :tounge: lol
