Title: A nice 81 Pepsi that sold $3500

It was on Orange County craigslist. What's your vote, was that top market value?

Looks to have been repainted at some point.... with no indication of cooling or what the inside looks like, I think 3500 is about what it's worth as it sits.

I could be wrong but I don't think that coin bezel is right

Lonny,

You are correct about the bezel. It's a vendo and should be a vmc.

Glen forwarded me that ad on CL. Guy had no phone number and wanted people to e-mail him with their offers. The type of CL ad that I HATE. If you want offers, put it on e-bay. I e-mailed him with my phone number saying that I had a couple of questions but no surprise he didn't call. I guess it's hard to answer questions when you are selling something you know nothing about.

It was a she and she didn't know what she had so used that approach to try to figure out value. She was polite to me . I guess some dude in San Diego  bought it along with some signs. Worked out for her but nobody here got it on the sweat side of things$

Without the VMC bezel if it sold close to the asking price I think it would be priced too high!

Would cost someone $500 for the correct bezel.
