Title: Pepsi 81 on ebay
Post by: coke_and_stuff on August 23, 2005, 03:59:51 pm
whats up with this lumpy pile, the crank handle hole has been filled, electric mech and  stack. Look at the wire that runs on the outside of the inner liner from the mech to the stack. Lumpy like no body work was done. Whats a machine like this really worth? Its been listed several times and no takers yet.

Coin Return tray looks like it's made of painted Duct Tape.

How can he say it's been restored? It's only been painted, with pretty poor results. Old gaskets , glass , chrome, door liner etc. Love that wire hanging inside the door.
       And I think an 8 year old child could do a better job painting the condenser coils.

Oh boy!!!  I like this. Quoting the seller (You may see others, but when you compare price & quality this one can not be beat)  and how do you argue with that.

Ha.... “This one can not be beat”.... uh Hello?... it looks like it already has...several times!
If they'd start it out at $500 I bet people would be all over it though.... He needs to come down to reality and let it go... (He can't have that much it the Wal-Mart paint job)
