Interesting Braq's Machine

[SIGNGUY]

It sure is interesting though... guess I didn't realize it was an 81 either till I took a better look at it...pretty cool... now my interest has peaked a little more for some reason... maybe cause it still sitting at $500.00 Doubt it will stay there?
so who's going for it???
I might put a bid in....

It was me . The guy had it on the local craigslist for I think around $700 and then the next day he changed his post to $1200. I emailed the guy after talking with you guy's and offered $400. With no response ?

The guy emailed me and said if it didn't sell on ebay he would sell it for $450. I guessing someone will bid at least the $500 starting bid . If someone want's it go for it.

I'm really on the fence on this one... OK help me out here... will a bottle stack from a RT 81 fit this square top 81? I know it is mechanical and this is electric,, but I'm sure I could figure that out or jsut keep it free vend? , how bout shelves??? will standard 81 shelves fit?
for some reason I'm actually interested in this machine?

Someone should ask him to show a photo of the backside of the "embossed" door. If there are welding marks, you know it is fake. If this was a round top, I would definately say it is  a fake. As you all know, I collect Round Top 81's and I have never seen a real one outside of the 4 embossed orginials (coke, pepsi, RC, 7-up). I have seen some very well done fake ones though. OC 81 round top fake ones are out there so buyers beware!!!

trans. 81s show up as Pepsi from time to time.... I would wait on one of those they don't go high... I bought a Pepsi 81 2 years ago at a yard sale for $75... parted it out....
I would bet this is the real deal... looks like only the Barq's is embossed...

I emailed the seller and asked if the words Drink and "It's Good" or embossed and he has not emailed me back. I'll keep you all posted.

I believe he also said that Vendorlator across the bottom was embossed as well? if that is so... I would definatly think it's the real deal..

I'm going to bid and I think Brian can help me out on getting it up here?

Thanks

The guy told me he was told it's a 56 not a 81 by it's height?
