Title: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: sodaworks on August 31, 2007, 10:10:36 am There's a Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 cup vendor on ebay # 130146264409 this is just like one of my cup vendors. I still am looking for a manual for it.
Title: Re: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: Jim on August 31, 2007, 11:42:52 am I have corresponded with the seller and will be using a couple of his images he sent in the Soda Machines Listings (http://soda-machines.com/content/section/3/14/).
This appears to be in great condition. I also like the slogan: "Prepared by the Bottler of Coca-Cola" across the front; that's a little different. A manual will take some time to surface...

Title: Re: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: sodaworks on August 31, 2007, 04:54:33 pm I also like the slogan: "Prepared by the Bottler of Coca-Cola" across the front
Mine also says that! Must be original to the machine. Title: Re: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: SquareTopCollector on August 31, 2007, 05:11:13 pm coke probably put that slogan there to reinsure customers that they were getting the same product even though it was from a machine and through an automated process. It also shows that coke retained quality control of the product. The idea of a fountain drink coming from a machine could have deterred customers back then. Just a thought.

I would have to agree with you. Title: Re: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: sodaworks on September 07, 2007, 01:32:59 pm The Glasco went for over 1600 bucks. complete Pre-mixers are really hard to come by.
Title: Re: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: Jim on September 07, 2007, 08:01:25 pm Bidding was a little unusual...
Very similar user names bidding on the machine... Very nice machine, none the less. Title: Re: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: collecture on September 07, 2007, 08:47:03 pm With all that I have had going on, I have not frequented eBay as much in the past 6 months or so as in the past. But I have noticed lately that eBay appears to have reduced the non-winner names to a 5 digit non-descriptive name (ie. c***e) - first and last letter (or number) and 3 asterisks between.
Anybody else notice this? When did they start doing it? Do sellers get to see the full names of the bidders? Title: Re: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: Jim on September 08, 2007, 06:08:46 am So that's why the naming was similar...
Goes to show that I don't visit greedbay all that much either... Title: Re: Coca-Cola Machine Glasco C-400-U2 Post by: MoonDawg on September 08, 2007, 11:51:41 am This new ID system is better than "Bidder 4"
So if Tom's theory is correct, we will still be able to identify common bidders. Sleepwalk would be "S***K". We could disclose our bidder names to each other, but not to spammers.

I agree - it would be nice to be able to slightly discern who you are bidding against - bidder 1, 2, 3 etc. were faceless (or nameless) names - this way (if I am correct), you have some insight.

Here's another example that just looks cool ! ! ! |
