Does anyone know where I can buy a Vortex/Dixee glass cup holder from??

I have one for sale, however it's attached to my Cebco Hot nut vendor that is on ebay currently... it's only around 200 bucks so far ... so bid awaY!!!

Just stuck 40lb in the USPS calculator... Came out at $151.50...

If I was lucky enough to win and have it shipped I'd also have customs charges ontop.

That includes shipping costs so factor in another $100 at least..

Its just not viable... Shame cos it looks a lovely machine...

Good luck with the auction... The pictures really work..

Dave,

the best place to find a Dixie Vortex Cupe Dispenser is pretty much Ebay. I found a guy at the last Fall Chicagoland Show that was reproducing and selling the metal mounting plate for the cup holders which is usually missing, that's about it.

Jas,

Here's a picture of two of my gumball/peanut machine's. The one on the left is a Victor Topper and the Peanut Machine on the right is a Silver King.

Thanks Brian...

Have had a look on Ebay...There are acouple on now but don't have the curved fixing brackets
for the gumball machines...

There's no rush ... I'll put it in as one of my searches and hopefully something will turn up.

Do you know the diameter size of the tube.. It looks like they made lots of different sizes

So far I like the Fords and the Victor machines.
I like the chicklets idea I can get those easily.

I mentioned it again yesterday and Hubby wanted to know if I was putting it in my shop or in the house.
So I guess he has come around to the idea.

Now dear daughter is another thing. She really thinks I'm crazy, like I dont jave enough "old stuff". Still working on the last pece of the old bedroom set I inherated, my 2 soda machines and now a gumball machine.

I'm thinking hubby likes the gbm because it's small and doesnt take up much space.

I cant research much this week I have way too much to do in the shop. 2 birthday cakes, Mother's day petit fours and a birthday cake that a 12 year old designed. Cant understand her way of thinking on color choices.
