Looks like a real good deal to me, since anything similar that you find would be over here and shipping cost alone would exceed $400.00.
Parts are very easy to find for sliders but it looks like all you need is a cap catcher.

I'd snap it up.
The "needs a checkup" part concerns me. I get a feeling it doesn't cool, or cool well. Not a problem if you can find a reputable refrigeration repair shop.
Oh, I forgot, Welcome to the boards.

400... Great deal...but ask what he means by checkup.. make sure it cools...
But even if it does not see if you can get it for less... it's still worth it in parts or to have it fixed... Like an ice clean original.

Hi
There are a couple of us this side of the world... But not many... I don't think we in England had any vending machines before the seventies. I have managed to grab a couple from close to American Airbases.
We did have the Rockola & (bal) Ami Jukes so there are some of them floating around. Nowehre near as much cool stuff as you guys have... With it only being a ferry rise away I have often thought about going over and buying a few bits... I always watch Ebay in Europe for Cola related stuff...
