... but still people give it the "RICK" price.
Never heard that term used before. I spit coffee all over my monitor.
I have to vote 0n the V44 also.

I agree on the 44 too..
Had a guy last year wanting to know if i buy machines.. I said yea, went to look at what he had...
he had 3 FULLY RESTORED VENDO 44's in his "airport Hanger".. the guy said he bought them in chicago at he coin op show over 15 years ago and was holding them as in investment... asked me to make an offer..
of course knowing the market the way it was , and taking into the fact that they where restored but signs of improper storage where showing on the paint and chrome already... I made what I felt a "Fair" offer was , and he got all mad and started yelling at me telling me I don't know anything.. he said he paid 6500.00 EACH for these machines 15 years ago and the guy he bought them from said they should "DOUBLE" in price by now!
I tried to explain to him the reasons why my offer was lower than when he thought , and he just hung his head and said he'd sit on them till things turn around...
