WOW.....
What will this do the market on Popperettes??? alot of work I'm sure, but hmmm gets a guy thinking... Not that I need MORE projects...

How far is that from you Creighton??? would you be willing to help a member out if he  :oops:
bought them all?
would have to palletize them for shipping... etc

        Wow, the whole lot is priced at less than 1 restored machine. I can see there
is going to be some excitement on this thread. Good catch Creighton  :happydrinkers:

If you get them, put me down for one. That is one cool machine.

Kevin

Glen

I think you are right... This is going to be a biggy..

If I am reading this correctly, it's one machine, and a lot of extra parts.

I've  decided it will be a long shot to find a popperette machine, at least in my price range and restore experience, so I'm saving up for a popcorn cart.  8)

Pinch me! I must be dreaming!! I'm up for a stand if there is one available.  An actual  brochure would be nice.  Also parts. :biggrin:

I thought so too at first, but he says 'everything' in the first two pictures and goes on to say that one of them has been blasted and powdercoated. So it is for 9 or 10 of them

I've talked the seller and made and offer to buy, IF I can get some help getting them
Does anyone have Creightons number?? or Creighton could you call me to discuss, not even sure how close you are or willing to help? but would need to get these out of his storage in the next few weeks and then woudl have to figure out how to get them to me?

There is another guy from seattle who may be interested .. so we have to move fast on this one..
I'll be checking this thread all nite tonight, so PM me or email me as Idon't want to post my phone number on the general user site.

john

WOW!!! I am super interested! Give me a call back when you get a chance John.

Just had a nice chat with John (SIGNGUY). No problem me picking up and shipping. What fun.
Creighton

I talked to John earlier and hope you (Creighton) did not mind me giving him your number.
Keep me in the loop - I'm interested in one and can get money wherever it needs to go ASAP.

Tom,
Glad you got my number to John. Hope this flys!!
Creighton

Update,
I've basically committed to buy them, He is getting me a complete inventory tomorrow and then I'll wire him the money. Creighton has graciously offered to help on this deal and that truley is what the pivotal part of this was for me... The guy basically committed to my offer as well so hopefully all will work out tomorrow..


What a great Find and a great group of people...!!! :happydrinkers:

Wow what a find. If you get several complete machines I could possibly be interested in one if the price is right. We are hoping to be coming home sometime in the next year and a half so I am thinking about starting to buy again. I can store at my Grandpa's in Indiana.

Depending on what is there I am interested also.

Marvin

Hi John
  You can count me in for one also. If you still have my number, give me a call.
Tom

That's nine machines that are possible sold. I just hope there are 9-10 machines available and you'll let me buy one. I have the cash if you need any.

Kevin

I wish I could buy one... But I do like the fact that everyone can pull together on this...

hi, i will pay you for a complete machine with all parts and stand 3000 to help you cut down your cost  jeff wolf

Posting has been deleted. Hope someone here got the machines.
Creighton

Great find i hope everyone gets one !! If there is any left i might be interested !! Welcome to the popcorn machine club!!!

Update on the Popperettes:
We’ll after several conversations with the seller, reviewing photos and such, it turns out there are NOT 9 complete popperettes, more like 4 and maybe enough to put together a few more.. but won’t know till I get them in my possession. Still a great find and a big thank you to Creighton for posting it. The guy had several inquires and offers, and we where able to agree on terms. I will be taking possession of them next weekend and have some time to go through the complete units and see exactly what I have.
Yes, They will be for sale, and I’ll do my best to accommodate those who have inquired about purchasing a complete unit or parts machine or both.  Email is best or PM me and I’ll be in touch individually.
Plus I’ll post more photos when I get them..
 :happydrinkers:

Congrats!  It was nice of you to take in all those orphaned Popperettes.  I'm sure they will all find good homes.   :biggrin: 

If you need any  :help:  ,give me a call.

Wow thats great John , See that what this site all about friends helping friends
Creighton able to help you out on getting those that is cool.
