how rare is this vendo machine

[aristocrat]

hi everyone

GP in England back with a question [as usual]

was looking thru ebay usa completed sales and came across this....

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-Vendo-Wrigleys-Chewing-Gum-Pack-Vending-Machine-Vendor-/171070811474?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27d49d6d52


had never seen one before and couldnt see another on ebay nor on google images and since it was made by vendo

in the listing copy thought would get you guys view on it and whether it is rare, at first glance i thought it was some

kind of converted coin changer but you guys will have the story i am sure


think dave or i would have snapped that up if it was on ebay.co.uk

regards

GP

Rare, or at least I have never seen one before.  Dave had a chance at it.  He posted listing when it was out.  By the next morning when I saw it, it was already sold.

One of my biggest eBay regrets...

Never saw one of this either. Interesting looking machine

Yep, I still look back on that auction and wish I could have found it.  Went to a collector up in NH, based on the feedback.  Such a cool vendor.
