WOW I talked to this guy a couple of days ago about this machine when it was on Ebay before and the bids were at $510.00. With the parts that are missing and needing minor restoration it was worth about 700-1000. That was low but with the economy the way it is no one is gonna shell out big bucks for it. Now he has it on there for $9000.00!  Oo

I saw the one for 11,000... and the paint job looks like it's from a spray can at least from the photos.. and there are still dents in the coin door and cap catcher?  I need to raise my prices on restoration.. biggrin
