Title: Looking for VMC 81 7up and/or RC Cola - Have trades and $$$ Post by: BeaYoung on September 24, 2014, 08:30:15 am Hi Everyone!
I am looking for a VMC 81 7-up and/or an RC Cola. Isn't everybody??? :smile: I have a fairly decent VMC Pepsi 81 (7/10) complete/cooling to trade or additionally a VMC 81 Pepsi door to trade, have cash as well of course. If someone was looking for a Pepsi 81 and had a shed full of RC's or 7-ups (LOL!), it might be interesting to do some trading of machines and cash. Let me know if you are interested. Another SMC member has "first rights" on the Pepsi door, if I don't trade it away. I am open to a cash only deal too. Thanks! B.

Also, my friend has one for sale. I think the cabinet is a beat up, but the door is good. I will PM you the info. so you can talk to him.

He is really hoping to do the restoration for the buyer and I have someone else I prefer to work with so he has been a bit reluctant to sell to me. We'll see what happens when the auction ends!
Cool that you have a friend with a door. Hopefully he's looking for a new home for it! I have a donor machine so really only need a door! Thanks! B.

If you buy the beat up 7up cabinet from Ron's friend and save the door i'm maybe interested to buy the rest of the cabinet (without 7up door) + the pepsi door. Christian. Edit: I hope no one misunderstanding what i try to say about the vmc 81 7up deal. I mean if You buy the beat up 7up and put the 7up door on the best of the two cabinets and keep that one and sell the other one with the pepsi door to me.

Title: Re: Looking for VMC 81 7up and/or RC Cola - Have trades and $$$ Post by: BeaYoung on September 24, 2014, 08:18:47 pm Slightly less than a million. :smile: At least that how it seems.

Wondering the same thing myself. I was thinking somewhere between $5000-$6000 unrestored??? But some people have suggested higher!!!! Just my two cents Good luck on your quest Brenda....hope you find one!!!!!!!

More demand than supply... Mine was an older restoration from St. Louis slots and still looks good.

I was able to purchase a VMC 7up 81 thanks to his lead. I think it won't offically feel like "Christmas" until it arrives here but that will hopefully be soon. Thanks again Ron!
