How heavy are these? Any issues to look for? What are they going for in decent shape?

It is a Westinghouse - vend handle for each selection...

Bubba - I was watching this as well (Toms R.). I can't see that it could be THAT heavy being about the size of an 81...maybe 250-300#. I think they are cool looking machines.
I think Brian (Seven181) bought the last one I saw - don't know if he still owns it? I believe he paid under $200 for it.
I'd go for it if the price stays low

Apparently, I'll know more about this machine next week. I'm kinda excited since its a bit of an odd ball, but don't know where I'm going to put it... Hopefully it works..

       Don't worry Ken, if these old machines don't work at first, we always get 'em
working without too much trouble.

I'm not worried about that.. its just how far back on the project list its going to be is what I'm worried about. If it works, I'll take the time to clean it up and use it somewhere...  If it doesn't work, it gets behind a long list of projects.. I got a Pole Position Arcade cab almost a year ago that I'm itching to get fixed, and all I have to do is send the board out for repair.. I've had my juke for at least 2 years sitting in my foyer not working..

I am also out of hiding places, so this one will come home, which means wifey is gonna know about it.

Well, I brought it home today... Pretty cool machine.. My wife even said so, and I've never heard that before.. She even talked about it once.. I haven't had a few minutes to look at it yet... I did find out that the whole bottom door lifts off pins. There is no electric on the door... I'm not around tomorrow, so it'll be Fri before I get some pics and more info....
