Title: CS-72 for sale at a store going out of business Post by: brayski98 on January 04, 2008, 11:31:13 am There is a store near me that supposedly lost thier lease and is closing. They have a CS-72 machine inside that appears to be fully restored. They use it to sell sodas to customers. The primary business is other nostalgic items that are new. But they are asking $2950 for it. Seems like quite a bit. I saw an old thread that mentioned $1800.
Are they asking way too much? I can probably post a picture if that would help.

Post some photos and this group will pick it apart for you! Title: Re: CS-72 for sale at a store going out of business Post by: brayski98 on January 04, 2008, 11:51:52 am I've only seen it in passing and had a soda from it a while back. Here are the photos they took and posted with the ad.

Not worth the asking price... Title: Re: CS-72 for sale at a store going out of business Post by: brayski98 on January 04, 2008, 12:07:06 pm What do you think its worth? Or should I just forget it?

machine has been RESTORED...... what he really meant to say, is this machine has been PAINTED only! Still a good buy if it were around $1500.00 or so. |
