Title: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: cpeterson47 on February 17, 2009, 07:19:58 pm Newbie here: machine is complete and reportedly does cool. Few to no dents and/or dimples. Haven't inspected it but assuming there's minimal rust any idea of a ballpark for value?
Thanks in advance. wep Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: sodaworks on February 17, 2009, 08:12:53 pm Market's kinda soft right now. The last one I seen sell went for 3200.00
Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: cpeterson47 on February 17, 2009, 10:13:17 pm Would that $3200 have been restored or unrestored?
Thanks, wep Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: Gumbo on February 17, 2009, 10:29:34 pm unrestored.

Joey Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: cpeterson47 on February 18, 2009, 08:33:14 am I think it's actually a VMC. Here's a pict (if I can get it attached) - looks embossed.

That's an orginal VMC pepsi alright.. .sure would love to run into that in an old barn or shed like it's sitting in right now.. very cool hope you can pick it up for a good price... Also we need to hear the story of how you came across it .. we love the stories and photos.. Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: cpeterson47 on February 18, 2009, 01:44:44 pm Haven't purchase it - still thinking about it. It's priced below $2000 ($2000 is the minimum I would need to sell it for to make a small profit).
Given these circumstances and the present financial recession, I'm still in the pondering stage. Any advice? Thanks, wep Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: davethebirdman on February 18, 2009, 01:49:33 pm Keeping in mind what Joey has said I wouln't imagine there's much in it for you to turn around... Nice machine to have to keep though.... Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: Kilroy on February 18, 2009, 03:35:32 pm hmmm. so whereabouts are...
must ...resist...nope...no time..no room.. Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: SIGNGUY on February 18, 2009, 03:45:17 pm Not sure your situation , but you can buy it and sit on it for a bit till economy changes.. and let's hope it does.. you should be able to make a few bucks on it..
or if you are content make a few bucks by selling it for 2k, I might be very tempted to take you up on that as well..?? or I'm sure someone else might be as well. this machien should be rescued by a collector so something unfortunate doesn't happen to it? PM if you want to talk deal or no deal.. ha ha Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: sodaworks on February 20, 2009, 12:41:52 pm 2000 BUY IT NOW
Title: Re: VALUE OF PEPSI VENDO 81-D ? Post by: bmw90w on February 20, 2009, 12:48:10 pm That would be hard to pas up for 2000. I like the way those look, but I like to drink coke more dangit!!
