Title: Candy Machine Value?
Post by: Daniel22 on April 18, 2009, 02:39:04 am
What is this machine worth? I can get it for $200. He says it works and it in decent shape.(http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o198/trixieone22/103_01571.jpg)

I would be all over that for $200.00--of course, I would start with an offer for $150.00! :biggrin:

Easily worth $200 especially in working condition and it looks to be in decent shape!

PS--Looks like a nice old Fawn cigarette machine next to it.

Thats a great deal at 200... but like someone said, go with 150 in hand, and 50 in the back pocket.. see what happens.
It's a Stoner 180 with gum wheel. average going rate has been around 500-550 in my area.

Buy it... I like John's $150 with the other $50 in another pocket move!
Course he's done this a few times :smile:
There are a few guys that have restored these machine here and they are SWEET when done! Larry did a couple killer juniors that were posted a few weeks ago...
Good Luck! Hope you're bringing it home now....

Good deal, Daniel!  I was looking at getting that one myself, but the drive to Dallas is a bit far from Del Rio.  I still want to get a Stoner Candy to use at home or the office...just have to find one a little bit closer than 7 hours each way!

The $200 price tag on the Fawn isn't bad, either!

He said I could have both machines for $300. Is it worth picking up the other machine for the $100? Like I said, this will be my first machine so I have no idea as to the values. I am going in the morning to get the Stoner for sure.

I would only grab the cig machine if you like it. Not really any resale value in my opinion. Nice find on the Stoner though!

Just brought the SToner home. I didn't realize how heavy that thing was going to be. Now I need to figure out how to restore it. It doesn't have the keys, should I just drill the locks?

Congrats!... Yeah I think my brother got a hernia helping me move/carry my 180 out of the basement... Don't know about the locks though I'm sure someone here will... And I hope
they post cause I need a set too.... And by the looks of the old candy in it... you ought to keep the wrappers if they are old... be kinda cool if their vintage.... You got a god deal! :happydrinkers:
