Vendorlator 139 estimate

Greetings!
I have had a Coca-Cola Vendorlator 139 [rounded top corners, single vend 7/8oz bottles] for a dozen years, and am thinking about finding it a new home (perhaps through barter). I am having difficulty finding an approximate value.
Cooling works great, all mechanical is fine and smooth save a sticky coin mech (it was upgraded to 25 cents at some point). I don't see any rust.
There are a few scratches and dents in the paint. I don't believe anyone has ever re-painted or attempted a restoration on this machine.
Any information much appreciated - thanks in advance!

I don't know anything about the value but what are you wanting to trade for? Where are you located?

I am located in Seattle, WA.
Most likely looking to sell it - I have a few construction-related projects going on, which is why I brought up the barter.

I bought a repainted VMC 139 at a garage sale last year. Several people had looked at it and passed at $350.00. I cleaned it up and put it in my store for $1500.
It sat un-noticed for 6 months. ( "Too big." ) Then I plugged it in and put a case of Cokes in it. Customers dropped in their coin, spin the handle and recieved their Coke. Sold it in 3 weeks.
The fact that the shaft for the drum is mounted verticle, not horizontal, makes it well balanced and easiy to turn. Fun machine to operate.
When your contractor buddies come over, make sure the Cokes are cold and keep your quarters handy.
