I got a call today regarding a candy machine. The person said it was from the 50's, cream color, has a mirror on it, and 8 pull tabs. I ask for a model but he said that the inside only said Univendor.
Is this a Stoner machine???
Was stoner machines made by Univendor?? Or is this a differant brand??

Sound like you are dealing with Stoner 180! The name "Univendor" refers to all of the various models of candy machines of that era made by Stoner.
What does the person want for it? Is the machine close enough for you to go and look at it?
These are a couple of pic's of my Stoner Jr. with the adevertisement/brand card showing the "Univendor" name.

Thanks Brian for the pics and explination!!!
I also spoke to curtis (Candy Machine Expert) he said it was a stoner. Its a stoner 180. I will be looking at it today after work. I am going CASH and dolly in Hand.
The man said its complete, original and pretty.
Lets hope it is.
Wish me luck!
Keep you posted

It's a Stoner 180... here is mine that Joey picked up for me!
Thanks Again Joey!!!!!
Also got the keys and parts in the mail! Cool books...
I keep playing phone and email tag with Curtis..
I want to get a few pieces for mine (new glass, decals, etc.)
A $1000 is a little steep for me... is that price firm?
BrianB-
What paint did you use on your junior?
I'm wanting to go back original with mine...
I think I'm going to combo the two Hammer green
colors to get close to the original.
On they have is too mint/pretty green and the
other is too machine age green.
So the two mixed would be close.

No. I created that fake ad so you could see the pic.
He wants 400.00.

I would be hauling it home... I got my for $305 and drove 4 hours round trip to get it.... If it wasn't for Joey I'd have drove double that or more.
$400 is a steal with it complete and the keys! Good find buddy!  '>

Well I got it home. No keys but complete. It even works.
Me and my wife bought our first candy from it.
It works perfect.
And it was only 15minutes from my house.
Thanks Guys
