Title: Gumball Machine Post by: shellynne on May 16, 2007, 10:43:00 am I have been watching this item on e-bay - seems a little expensive to me, but I don't have one of those handy-dandy price guides. It reminds me so much of my Kandy King ....
So, what would be a good offer on this, and is there anyone out there willing to help me with shipping it to Oregon? And, would the cost to ship be really outrageous?

problem if seller were break it down into two pieces. The base looks to be able to remove easily.

It's from 1953 and the Silent Salesman Too (1995) lists it as worth only $125 with the stand and $75 without. $300 does seem steep for it. I think that $200 may be more of a current value.
