Title: Newspaper Post by: Kevin C on March 08, 2005, 04:33:47 pm Hey
I am ready to run my first add & now I can't find the thread we started a few weeks ago. Can someone point me in the correct direction? Kevin Title: Newspaper Post by: Eric on March 08, 2005, 05:11:43 pm General Chit Chat - Buying Machines - page two has some wording..... Good Luck!
Title: Newspaper Post by: loman4ec on March 08, 2005, 05:23:40 pm I just put an ad in the antiques section that says
Wanted 1950's and 60's soda machines Any condition, any brand will pay cash Call Josh I keep mine simple. Title: Newspaper Post by: Eric on March 08, 2005, 05:54:52 pm Yep! Clean and simple! And Cash!!
I also added pull knob candy machines they're cool, can be worth a lot and are good to trade...especially Stoner machines...... Title: Newspaper Post by: sodaworks on March 09, 2005, 11:12:17 am I recieved a call from a guy answering my ad last night wanting to sell me a vendo 6 case vertical self serve machine. He said it needed freon and paint and he would let me have it for just 4500.00. He tried telling me it was worth 6500.00, yeah right!!! I told him that I already have one and it gets cold and I only paid 150.00 bucks for it. No sell.

Title: Newspaper Post by: sodaworks on March 09, 2005, 11:05:39 pm Hey Lars,
In about a hundred years or so, I'll probably wish I would have bought the 6 case vertical for 4500.00 Title: Newspaper Post by: Eric on March 10, 2005, 07:59:15 am Would love to see the stoner machine...... I missed out on one.... Great machine!
Love the stoner gum dispenser that mounts on the side too... A Great accessory for the soda machine! Title: Newspaper Post by: sodaworks on March 10, 2005, 02:21:42 pm I will post before and after photo's when finished. Today I will be cutting and polishing the paint, then final assembly. terry
Title: Newspaper Post by: BrianB on March 10, 2005, 06:35:39 pm Stoner Candy Machines are awesome. I'm about 85% done with a Stoner Junior that I picked up in Illinois about 3 months ago. I love the "mechanicalness" of it. I've always been kinda' into things that have 'trons running through their respective veins but this Stoner has been a really cool experience so far!
If anybody here is thinking about restoring one or just needs parts, the go to guy is a fella named Curtiss. He works for Memory Lane Blvd and works closely with Back In Time Warehouse (BITW, has an Ebay store) If anybody out there knows anything about Stoner's, he it! Our candy machine brethern are just as cool and helpfull as we are!! They stock a boatload of parts and if you need something and don't see it on the Ebay store, just give Curtiss a call (his number is listed on the BITW website) and ask away! If anybody here needs any of the replacement "Univendor Cards" that go in the glass card holder of the junior, let me know. Also I have a bunch of the 5 cent / 10 cent price tags that go into the price/sold out flags. Title: Newspaper Post by: loman4ec on March 10, 2005, 09:27:13 pm Curtis is who helped me with the Frosty machine. He is a great guy.
Title: Newspaper Post by: BrianB on March 11, 2005, 06:34:52 am Geez.....talk about multi-talented! That guy ceases to amaze me! Wish they could clone him
Title: Newspaper Post by: sodaworks on March 11, 2005, 01:45:48 pm Finished buffing out the paint last night on the stoner jr. I will begin final assembly today. terry
Title: Newspaper Post by: on March 11, 2005, 01:51:40 pm Great job! I can't wait to see before and after photos!
Title: Newspaper Post by: Eric on March 22, 2005, 05:54:10 pm Alright... I just got a call on my want ad from the state of Oregon..... I'm here in Missouri...
(The paper runs the ads on a website also) anyway.... any of you folks on the coast out there interested or know of someone interested in a Stoner 180 candy machine? He's asking $400, said it needed work....if so let me know and I'll pass his # along...... The message got my heart a goin' then he said Oregon... Oh well.... Eric Title: Newspaper Post by: sodaworks on March 22, 2005, 09:41:30 pm Hello Eric,
