Title: Choice Vend VU-9-72 Post by: mznb1u on April 29, 2008, 09:39:14 pm My friend has the option to buy a Canada Dry VU-9-72. Clean machine that cools and vends well. Complete machine that needs minor cosmetic paint and that's about it.
Will post pics later but what would this heavyweight be worth? Thanks! Tim Title: Re: Choice Vend VU-9-72 Post by: Jim on April 29, 2008, 09:50:34 pm Hey Tim,
There are a couple of different version of this machine, but overall I would gestimate between $150 - $250 since you stated the machine is complete and functioning... Title: Re: Choice Vend VU-9-72 Post by: mznb1u on April 30, 2008, 08:12:01 am Here are the pictures. Neat machine but very heavy!

The problem is that at some point in the past, a drunken attempt :happydrinkers: (those involved will remain nameless, let's just say that one of those involved was not involved in SMC collecting at the time :blush: ) was made to drill out the lock core to get the machine open. Anyway, he needs a new core and the T-handle assembly that goes around it.
Where can I get a good deal on one for him? Is this a universal part or are they different based on the machine model and manufacturer? THANKS!

The machine is in good running order. The only part missing is one of the caps on the selector knobs.
I forgot to take a picture but the Choice Vend has a screw off clear plastic cap on the selector knobs. This allows you to put a bottle crown in the selector knob so the customer can tell what brand is on each shelf. Does anyone have one of these laying around? Thanks! :drinking: Tim :drinking: |
