Hey Guys as I posted in another post, I am in the need of a few Vendo 81's.. yeah yeah I know they are harder to find, but I'm sure some have a few squirrelled away.
I'm willing to pay market value for them if complete and cooling , or even consider machines, that are not complete as i have some parts etc...
I just have customers wanted machines restored and I've run out of inventory. Good problem to have, but the request jus keep on coming.
I'll arrange all shipping and pay immediatley..
Thanks
John

I paid a little over $1550 for mine last January. I've heard of them selling close to 2k recently. John is not the only restorer looking to fill customer requests as I've had inquiries. |

I recently just sold a mostly complete 81B to (name anonymous) for 2k. It was in nice, original condition and needed nothing except new paint, minor body work, new wiring, and a few parts (water coolection pan), etc.
He was happy to pay 2k for it, and assured me he would buy them all day long from me in that condition at that price if I stumbled on any more that I was willing to sell. He's in the restore business, and needs solid machines to restore/re-sell. I guess you can't restore/re-sell what you don't have to begin with....
Looks like the market is looking up for the 50's round tops...

The market is still to beaten and unsure in my opinion. And the reality shows have done some good bringing back interest, but they also left a slew of people thiking they can retire on their run of the mill machine. Yeah, I see crazy prices on CL and Ebay, but maybe 1 in 100 or 200 items are actually getting that over the top dollar.
