I just moved a couple months back and the difference in what I am finding here is tremendous. In North carolina I was finding very little in the way of machines and signs. At least very little in a reasonable price range. Since arriving here I have picked up a Barber's Pole, Wurlitzer Juke Box, Vendolator 27 parts machine (fairly complete), and three picnic coolers. I have also been selling more.

In North Carolina I was finding three to four good deals a year. I am doing much better here.

Of course I may have just jinxed myself.

It's getting hard to find a good price on a lot of items now! With the different shows on TV (Pawn Stars, Storage Wars, etc.) giving astronomical values for soda related items, the prices I've seen are out of my preferred range for things I would normally consider...  glare

Ive had the same problems being able to buy anything because of the high prices. I have had good luck trading though. I picked this up a few weeks ago a very nice 1944 Coke Cardboard

Very nice cardboard!!
How well do the cardboard signs do in a place like the kitchen? Meaning, does the light that a kitchen would normally have discolor the print? (kinda like what one would see of a sign hanging in a store window for a few years)
