I have a Cavalier CS-64C with two coin ccollectors, one is a non working Vendi model and the other is a Coin Acceptors S75-9811A. I am new to this and am tryign to change the current 75 cent settign to soemthign like a dolar or 1.25, is this just simple wireingm carterage chage, or what????

It depends if your Coinco is an electronic model, or an electro-mechanical type, if you flip the coin/slug rejector down, you should see some slide-switches, if it has only four switches, it will only go as high as 75-cents. if it has five or six switches, it should goe up to $1.85 per vend, the four switches are aranged from left to right with the following coin values,

5-10-20-40...etc.  to set it to say 25-cents flip up the 1st & 3rd switch  5+20=25

if it has five switches they are assigned as follows...5-10-20-40-80 cents...and so on.

I just pulled it out and took the back plate off of it and there are no switches at all.

oh, i lied, there are 4 very small double switches. two switches per unit, with two units. does anyone know where i can get one with five or six switches? and about how much should i be looking to spend?

I also have a realy heavy Vendi model that has no sitches at all, but this modle has some dissconnected wires and looks like it might need to be rebuilt. who would be able to do this and what does it usually cost? Can this Vendi model have the price upped on it? I think is just needs two new coil lookign devices in it.

    The only value to that heavy steel Vendi unit would be as a boat anchor!

Unless the Vendo metal coinmech has some sentimental or special meaning for you, you'd be better off replacing it with something like a Coinco S75-9800B series, which can be set up to $1.75 per/vend.  your can find them on  Ebay by searching under "coinco"  you can find them between $25 to $75 each.

your old metal mech might be repairable, but by the time I fix it up, you'll be in for more than you could replace it for.
